Optical Fibre based Artificial Compound Eyes for Ultrafast Static and Dynamic Perception

Natural selection has driven arthropods to evolve compound eyes to achieve static and dynamic perceptions in complex environments. This inspired scientists from HK to develop a biomimetic artificial compound eye (ACE), which integrates 271 lensed polymer optical fibres into a dome-like structure, achieving real-time 180o panoramic imaging, depth estimation, and high-speed motion capture. These characteristics make this ACE suitable for applications to capture high-speed objects, such as surveillance, unmanned aerial/ground vehicles, and virtual reality.
