  • Abstract
    An unmanned fying vehicle (UFV) is generally used to search for and track an adversary and even designed to go down with the adversary´s vehicle under the extreme conditions of modern wars [1]. The precision of a UFV´s electromagnetic sensors generally infuences the accuracy of its guidance. To improve the accuracy of the UFV´s guidance system, advanced guidance technologies based on bionic vision have been studied in recent years. Some developments based on bioinspired intelligence [2], [3] have also been investigated for aerial systems. Bionic vision, such as that inspired by the vision of Limulus species (i.e., horseshoe crabs), fruit fies, birds, and humans [4], has become a hot research feld, and some of these new technologies have been applied to missile homing guidance.
