The neuromorphic bug eye cam: A 180-degree visual system for drones
2013-05-23 18:02:35| Extremetech
Autonomous drones are basically cameras with wings. While high resolution cameras focused on the ground might need to be optimized for contrast sensitivity and feature extraction, those that look around the sky may need a wide FOV with good deep resolution. A new device known as the CURVACE (Curved Artificial Compound Eye) has recently been developed to meet the demands of a flight. It is not so much a camera as it a complete visual system.
