Mantis shrimp have a very complex visual system that allows them to detect light in a logarithmic fashion, giving them the ability to detect a large range of light including polarized light. A new camera, costing less than $10 to manufacture, inspired by this system mimics this […]
Birds and insects have wings with rough leading edges to separate airflow, which assists counterintuitively with easier flight. Scientists have adapted to combat the issue of smaller drones being buffeted by air with a new design: “Separated Flow Airfoil”. Boundary air is the air directly in contact […]
