(Left) The compound eye of the mantis shrimp, where ommatidia combine polarization-filtering microvilli with light-sensitive receptors. (Right) A bioinspired CMOS imager constructed with polarization sensitivity, where aluminum nanowires placed directly on top of photodiodes act as linear polarization filters.
