Ultra-Thin Camera Based on Artificial Apposition Compound Eyes
نویسنده
چکیده
An artificial compound eye imaging system fabricated by microoptics technology is adapted and attached to an optoelectronic sensor array. The thin objective consists of a microlens array on a silica-substrate with a pinhole array of different pitch in its focal plane on the backside. First captured images are presented, resolution and sensitivity are examined.

Microoptical Artificial Compound Eyes
Natural compound eyes combine small eye volumes with a large field of view at the cost of comparatively low spatial resolution. For small invertebrates such as flies or moths, compound eyes are the perfectly adapted solution to obtaining sufficient visual information about their environment without overloading their brains with the necessary image processing. However, to date little effort has ...
متن کاملArtificial apposition compound eye fabricated by micro-optics technology.
By exploring micro-optical design principles and technology, we have developed an artificial apposition compound eye. The overall thickness of the imaging system is only 320 microm, the diagonal field of view is 21 degrees, and the f-number is 2.6. The monolithic device consists of an UV-replicated microlens array upon a thin silica substrate with a pinhole array in a metal layer on the back si...
متن کاملExperimental study of formability of friction stir welded ultra-thin sheets of IF steel
In this paper, the experimental investigation of formability of friction stir welded ultra-thin sheets of IF steel is investigated experimentally. First, the sheets are joined by friction stir welding process based on the tests determined according to the Taguchi design of experiments. The investigated parameters in the welding process are as tool rotational and traverse speeds. Then, the tailo...
متن کاملSeeing better at night: life style, eye design and the optimum strategy of spatial and temporal summation
Animals which need to see well at night generally have eyes with wide pupils. This optical strategy to improve photon capture may be improved neurally by summing the outputs of neighbouring visual channels (spatial summation) or by increasing the length of time a sample of photons is counted by the eye (temporal summation). These summation strategies only come at the cost of spatial and tempora...
