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

For centuries, vision has been one of the most essential aspects of human experience, shaping how we navigate and understand the world. But what happens when vision is no longer constrained by biology ...

Researchers are pushing the boundaries of what “restoring sight” can mean, not only through surgical implants or gene editing but also through software that reshapes how the brain interprets what the ...

For decades, treatments for macular degeneration have focused on slowing, not restoring vision loss. A new retinal implant is flipping that script, turning patients with geographic atrophy into ...

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 ...

As computer vision (CV) systems become increasingly power and memory intensive, they become unsuitable for high-speed and resource deficit edge applications - such as hypersonic missile tracking and ...

Our brain and eyes can play tricks on us—not least when it comes to the expanding hole illusion. A new computational model developed by Flinders University experts helps to explain how cells in the ...

Researchers at the University of Cambridge and Meta Reality Labs have, for the first tim,e mapped the resolution limits of human vision. In other words, they calculated how many pixels we can truly ...

Bilal Haider receives funding from NIH and the Simons Foundation. Despite the nursery rhyme about three blind mice, mouse eyesight is surprisingly sensitive. Studying how mice see has helped ...
