    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Computer Vision
    • Robotics

    Background:

    • Existing heterogeneous compound eye cameras (HeCECam) struggle with high-precision 3D information acquisition.
    • Limitations in sub-eye distribution and optical relay system compatibility hinder performance for applications requiring fast location, precise tracking, and accurate identification over large fields of view (FOV).

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To enhance the detection performance of HeCECam by optimizing its structural design.
    • To improve the acquisition of high-precision 3D information for advanced applications.

    Main Methods:

    • Proposed "Three-direction center-of-gravity subdivision (TGS)" method to optimize sub-eye distribution uniformity and symmetry.
    • Developed a tilt compensation method to improve compatibility between heterogeneous compound eyes and the optical relay system, addressing imaging defects.

    Main Results:

    • TGS reduced sub-eye distribution unevenness from 152% to 117%.
    • Tilt compensation effectively eliminated imaging defects like distortion and stray light, improving clarity, especially at the external FOV.
    • Experimental verification demonstrated improved resolving power and a wider FOV for the optimized HeCECam prototype.

    Conclusions:

    • The optimized HeCECam structure significantly improves imaging performance, overcoming previous limitations.
    • The enhanced prototype shows strong potential for practical applications including wide-area surveillance, forewarning, and navigation.
