In blinding bright light or pitch-black dark, our eyes can adjust to extreme lighting conditions within a few minutes. The human vision system, including the eyes, neurons, and brain, can also learn ...

Many robots are equipped with cameras to allow them to see the world. These digital eyes record sequences of still images which must somehow be interpreted as motion. A popular approach is optical ...

Research reveals how close human vision comes to sensing the smallest possible unit of light. Here’s why that matters for perception.

Conventional silicon architecture has taken computer vision a long way, but Purdue University researchers are developing an alternative path — taking a cue from nature — that they say is the ...

Despite advances in machine vision, processing visual data requires substantial computing resources and energy, limiting deployment in edge devices. Now, researchers from Japan have developed a ...

Researchers created a machine vision sensor that uses quantum dots to adapt to extreme changes in light far faster than the human eye can. (Nanowerk News) In blinding bright light or pitch-black dark, ...

Fabrication of nanoscale light-sensitive materials, known as quantum dots, created a device that reacts to light faster than the human eye. It could revolutionize autonomous vehicles. WASHINGTON, July ...
