A new 3D camera inspired by jumping spiders' eyes may well be found in the next generation of battery-operated wearable tech, assistive devices, robots and drones. The technology utilizes “less energy ...

Some jumping spiders look so much like wasps that scientists named them for the predatory insects. But University of Cincinnati biologists wondered: Do these mimics really look like insect faces or is ...

Engineers have studied how jumping spiders see and used this unusual biological model to create a working 3D imaging device called SpiderCam. Unlike traditional depth cameras, SpiderCam avoids the ...

Spiders have an off-putting reputation, especially when you think about ancient spiders from Australia that are pure nightmare fuel, but their biology can tell us a lot about the natural world. When ...

It’s a quiet autumn evening. You’re enjoying some TV, when an unscripted movement catches your eye. A large house spider (Tegenaria domestica) is striding across the rug towards you. You make a sudden ...
