John Rogers (pictured left), Flory-Founder chair professor of Materials Science and Engineering at University of Illinois at Urbana/Champaign, said the new camera he helped develop is based on the structure of the human eye. He said that the same technology can be used for a range of devices, including flexible sensors and prosthetics.

"This strategy opens up exciting, new engineering design possibilities by eliminating the two dimensional, planar constraints of conventional, semiconductor wafer-based optoelectronics," said Rogers.
