Abstract
Artificial retinas combine video camera and image processing functions , allowing machines to function in their environment with unprecedente d autonomy, or to augment quality control, surveillance and hazard mon itoring. We review several retina devices and reveal how they execute basic manipulations of the image at processing speeds well beyond the capabilities of the human eye.
