Abstract
The ability to fabricate silicon optoelectronic devices on a curved surface will lead to imaging systems with exceptional characteristics. This innovative technology will find diverse applications.
All animals have curved imagers for their eyes. By contrast, artificial vision systems such as digital and video cameras have to rely on flat image-recording surfaces.
