Coleoid cephalopods (octopuses, squids and cuttlefishes) are the only branch of the animal
kingdom outside of vertebrates to have evolved both a large brain and camera-type eyes …

In this review, the research progress of bio-inspired polarized skylight navigation is
evaluated from the perspectives of theoretical basis, information detection, sensor design …

Molluscs comprise the second largest phylum of animals (after arthropods), occurring in
virtually all habitats. Some are commercially important, a few are pests and some carry …

With their large brains, elaborate sense organs and complex behaviour, cephalopods are
among the world's most highly evolved invertebrates. This second edition summarises the …

It is difficult to imagine what an animal as different from us as the octopus 'thinks', but we can
make some progress. In the Umwelt or perceptual world of an octopus, what the lateralized …

A polarized light sensor is applied to the front-end detection of a biomimetic polarized light
navigation system, which is an important part of analyzing the atmospheric polarization …

More than 100 years since the first maze designed for rodent research, researchers now
have the choice of a variety of mazes that come in many different shapes and sizes. Still old …

Most visually guided animals shift their gaze using body movements, eye movements, or
both to gather information selectively from their environments. Psychological studies of eye …

Cuttlefish are known for their rapid changes of appearance enabling camouflage and con-
