We would like to briefly interrupt your procrastination with an interesting research article, in which tiny filter "glasses" firmly establish 3D vision in the praying mantis. By creating 3D mantis glasses with lenses of different colors, analogous to the red-and-green glasses used during the 3D motion-picture craze of the 1950s and 1960s, researchers observed stereopsis in mantises. When shown simulated prey, mantises were more likely to strike at 3D simulations, a development that could allow researchers to “start to tease apart the algorithms” that underlie invertebrate 3D perception—a possible plus for future efforts in machine vision. #MachineVision #3D #ScienceAndTechnology #FightProcrastinationDay
