The Subaru Telescope in Hawai‘i is adding a new instrument to its arsenal, one that will observe the cosmos through a compound eye. The compound eye will allow Subaru to observe about 2,400 ...

Biomimetic imaging systems, particularly those inspired by the compound eyes of insects, have gained significant attention in recent years. These systems aim to replicate the unique optical ...

Still, this reduction process can only go so far – especially for structures like the eye, which have strict size limitations due to the laws of physics and the nature of light. Insects possess ...

The compound eyes of insects can detect fast-moving objects in parallel and, in low-light conditions, enhance sensitivity by integrating signals over time to determine motion. Inspired by these ...

This limitation shares a surprising connection with the insect world, where most compound eyes excel at detecting motion but struggle with depth perception. Enter an unlikely hero in solving this ...

Make a donation to the zoo's Cry Me a Cockroach fundraiser and the zoo will name a cockroach, rodent or vegetable after an ex before serving it to one of the zoo's residents. Cockroaches are $10 ...

A powerful compound eye likened to that of an insect will allow the telescope to simultaneously observe about 2,400 celestial bodies. This innovative eye can capture cosmic rainbows (spectra ...

A novel bio-inspired camera capable of ultra-high-speed imaging with high sensitivity was developed by mimicking the visual structure of insect eyes. The compound eyes of insects can detect fast ...

As a US federal agent, Tigran Gambaryan pioneered modern crypto investigations. Then at Binance, he got trapped between the ...

Yellow or green discharge (pus) in the eye The eyelids are stuck (matted) together with pus after sleep After being wiped away, the pus comes back during the day Often caused by a bacterial eye ...
