Mimicking the Eye’s Light Adaptation
  • July 3, 2026
  • 3 min
  1. Researchers developed a neuromorphic vision device that mimics human visual adaptation to varying lighting conditions.
  2. The device uses a TiO₂/PEDOT photomemristor to physically adapt its photosensitivity without external processing.
  3. Under bright light, the device suppresses photosensitivity by reducing conductivity through a water desorption process.
  4. The system demonstrated a recognition accuracy of 93.7% in mixed-light environments, outperforming conventional adaptive sensors.
  5. This technology highlights the potential of biological principles in advancing artificial vision systems.
