  • Method and system for optical detection using a biomimetic electrochemical eye
    Patent number: 11916156
    Abstract: A system comprising a biomimetic electrochemical eye (EC-EYE) and a computing device is provided. The EC-EYE comprises: an ionic liquid device; a nanowire (NW) device that comprises the plurality of NWs; and a connection device configured to provide a plurality of currents associated with the plurality of NWs to a computing device. The computing device comprises one or more processors and a display device. The one or more processors are configured to: receive the plurality of currents from the plurality of NWs via the connection device; determine a plurality of pixel characteristics associated with a plurality of pixels based on the plurality of currents from the plurality of NWs; generate an image comprising the plurality of pixels based on the plurality of pixel characteristics; and provide the image to a display device. The display device is configured to display the image.
