Study of the eyes of beetles is already paying off. A group of scientists at Tübingen, Germany, found that a beetle's compound eyes can measure the speed of a moving background with random shadings on it. After finding out how the beetles do it, the scientists set to work building an instrument on the same principle to measure the ground speed of airplanes.
