Mimicking the eye's shape is a dream come true for many optical engineers.
Using nanowires to detect light and send it to external devices
With the curved"retina" in their pocket, the researchers combined it with an artificial eye that had a curved lens on its front. By filling it with an ionic liquid where charged particles can move, they were able to get perovskite nanowires to perform the electromechanical function of detecting light and sending the signal to external electronics that process images.
When testing the ability of this artificial eyeball the researchers found it was capable of detecting on average of 86 photons per second -- a rate on par with that of a human eye. Thesewere also able to recover from light detection even faster than human eyeballs, taking only 40 seconds to recover while a human eye would take closer to two-and-a-half minutes. The robotic eye was also able to accurately capture, or"see", the letters"E,""Y,""E.
The computer was able to recognize the letters"E,""I" and"Y," and let's just say that, in some ways, the robotic eye was better than the real deal since it could pick up a wider change ofThis is such exciting news since, with medical researchers, there could be
