The device might even lead to the development of prosthetic devices including a bionic eye,
they said.
"This is the first time we've demonstrated a camera on a curved surface to really make it look
like a human eye," said Yonggang Huang of Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois,
who reported his findings on Wednesday in the journal Nature.
Huang, who worked on the project with John Rogers of the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign, developed a relatively simple solution to the long-running problem of
transferring microelectronic components onto a curved surface without breaking them.
"If you simply bend it, those materials are brittle like a ceramic bowl. They break," Huang said
in a telephone interview.
To solve this, Huang and Rogers developed a mesh-like material made up of tiny squares
that hold the photodetectors and electronic components. The squares are connected by tiny
wires that give each component the ability to mold to a curved surface.

CHICAGO (Reuters) - Borrowing one of nature's best
designs, U.S. scientists have built an eye-shaped
camera using standard sensor materials and say it
could improve the performance of digital cameras and
enhance imaging of the human body.

"There is bunch of weird (stuff) going on out there right now," expert Dan Kaminsky told AFP,
confirming that attacks are being launched online despite efforts to conceal and patch the
vulnerability in the Internet's foundation.
Kaminsky, the director of IOActive penetration testing, was met with applause and cheers
when he stepped to a podium at the premier Black Hat conference to reveal details of an
attack that is a boon to ill-willed hackers.
An elite squad of computer industry engineers labored in secret to solve the problem, and
released a software "patch" in early July but sought to keep details of the vulnerability hidden
until Black Hat to give people time to protect computers from attacks. [read more]
