Optical metasurfaces rewire machine learning at the sensor

On June 17, 2026, Nature highlighted a prototype vision system that embeds core computer-vision operations into an optical metasurface, enabling real-time perception on the sensor itself. The News & Views piece argues this approach could deliver low-energy, on-device intelligence by shifting work out of silicon and into light. It frames a concrete path for machine […]
