Abstract :
The model RETINA developed by the Laboratory LACOS (University of Le Havre, France) in collaboration with A.B. Kogan Research Institute for Neurocybernetics (Rostov State University, Russia) is a retinal neural network. It has been shown that the response given by this model allowed one to envisage a new approach in artifical vision. The implantation of the impulse neurons in RETINA allows us to get a frequency encoding of the informations. The main interest of the impulse RETINA is its reaction to the stimuli in movement or stationary with different shapes and velocities. The aim of this research is to develop a new artifical visual sensor. In this paper, the simulation results of the impulse RETINA are analyzed and compared with the biological results
