About This Lesson
National Science Foundation-funded researchers at the University of Illinois have developed Mantis Cam, a bio-inspired camera that mimics the eyes of the mantis shrimp. Mantis Cam enables researchers to see the same polarized light that sea creatures do. The data that Mantis Cam gathers is helping researchers better understand how this polarized light might actually help marine mammals navigate. For more information, visit: https://bit.ly/2EmNBhP.
