Abstract
The distribution of eyes, their anatomy and the visual
behaviour that they make possible, are well documented in
comprehensive texts, of which several are referenced with
an asterisk("") at the end of this article . Here I will endeavour
to draw attention to a few general principles that apply
to the simpler examples of natural visual processing so far
as we know it in invertebrates, and to our primitive efforts
to copy low-level natural vision into artificial systems .
These principles apply to a very large number of scattered
examples of eye types and to a wide variety of visual behaviour,
but most of the data actually refer to insect vision,
which is reasonably well known.
