In this study, key-characteristics of different bioinspired vision systems are presented, and their importance in the design of autonomous navigation systems is highlighted. Two paradigms reflecting authors' research efforts in the design of vision systems, mimicking the human and animal retina, are presented. The first paradigm relates to the development of novel polymer nanostructures and nanoantennas aimed at integrating polarization principles with CMOS designs, mimicking bioinspired retina systems. The second paradigm relates to the development and testing of a novel neuromorphic spike event-based polarimetric Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS), for dynamic imaging of a scene, with enhanced temporal contrast and high object discrimination. The outcome of this study indicates that integration of several bioinspired vision principles, such as polarization of light and neuromorphic detection, play an important role in the design of innovative bioinspired nanomaterials and neuromorphic vision architectures.
