1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Machine vision is indispensable in Industry 4.0 and autonomous driving, enabling the perception and reaction necessary to navigate dynamic environments. Current machine vision sensors, including frame-based and event-based types, often fall short due to their limited temporal dynamics compared with the human retina, hindering their overall performance and adaptability. In this work, we present an event-driven retinomorphic photodiode (RPD) that mimics the retina's layered structure and signal pathway. The RPD achieves this by vertically integrating an organic donor-acceptor heterojunction, an ion reservoir with a porous web-like morphology, and a Schottky junction into a single diode through controlled layer-by-layer fabrication and precise nanostructure modulation. Each component replicates a key retinal process, and their spontaneous interaction results in environment-adaptive dynamics. This design yields a dynamic range exceeding 200 dB, substantially reduces noise and data redundancy, and allows for high-density integration. We demonstrate that these improvements enable high-quality machine vision, even under extreme lighting conditions. Our work demonstrates a bottom-up approach to retinomorphic sensors, propelling the development of robust and responsive machine vision systems adaptable to complex and dynamic lighting environments.
