SAN FRANCISCO - Researchers from Northwestern University and the University of Illinois have created the first curved camera, which is very similar to the human eye but with the optical zoom capability.
The camera is similar to the eyeball has a 3.5 times optical zoom and can be improved. Besides this unique camera takes sharp pictures and cheap. It can be used and suitable for imaging at night.
"We were inspired by the human eye but we want to go beyond the human eye," said Yonggang Huang, Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Mechanical Engineering at Northwestern, told TG Daily, Wednesday (01/19/2011).
"Our goal is to develop something simple that can zoom in and capture a good image and we have achieved it," he added.
Small camera combines a simple lens of the 'human eye', which allows small devices, with zoom capability as well as SLR cameras. The camera system also has an integrated lens that is built by putting a thin elastic membrane on the water chamber with clear glass windows underneath.
To achieve focus-in and the image is enlarged, the researchers drive the hydraulics to change the curvature of the lens and detector in a coordinated manner.
