Recent studies of insect visual behaviour and navigation reveal a number of elegant strategies that can be profitably applied to the design of autonomous robots. Bees, for example, negotiate narrow gaps by balancing the velocity of image motion in the two eyes, rather than using computationally complex stereo mechanisms to measure distance. Distance flown is gauged by integrating, over time, the optic flow that is experienced by the visual system en route to the destination. These and other visually mediated behaviours are described along with applications to robot vision.
