Through the eyes of a cat – biomimicry of feline eyes may revolutionize robotic vision
In a recent study published in the journal Science Advances, researchers leveraged crucial aspects of feline eyes, particularly their tapetum lucidum and vertically elongated pupils (VP), to develop a monocular artificial vision system capable of hardware-level object detection, recognition, and camouflage-breaking. While software-aided implementations of object recognition and tracking have been attempted, they require substantial [...]
