What if Eye...?
Computationally Recreating the Cambrian Explosion of Vision Starting with a single light-detecting cell, our digital creatures face challenges that shaped real eyes over millions of years: navigating the world, discerning food from poison, and evading predators. Emergence of eyes from single light-sensitive photoreceptors Our digital creatures evolve different eyes based on survival needs - compound-like eyes for navigation, camera-like eyes for food and poison discrimination.
Starting with a single light-detecting cell, our digital creatures face challenges that shaped real eyes over millions of years: navigating the world, discerning food from poison, and evading predators.
