Special light-sensitive cells in mantis shrimp eyes perform similar functions to electronic sensors found in the mechanism of a DVD and CD player, the study said.

Dr Roberts went on to explain how the mantis shrimps' design could assist with improving optical devices.

Specifically, both mantis shrimps and DVD or CD players are able to convert light into different forms so it can be stored and then retreived.

Dr Nicholas Roberts, lead author of the paper published in Nature Photonics, said his work showed for the first time the unique design and mechanism of the mantis shrimp's eye.

But the key difference is mantis shrimps are able to do this across the whole spectrum of light, whereas DVD or CD players have a much narrower band to work with.
