Time perception is a fundamental aspect of young children's daily lives and is affected by a number of factors. The present study aimed to investigate the precise developmental course of young children's time perception from 3 to 5 years old and the effects of emotion localization on their time perception ability. A total of 120 children were tested using an adapted time perception task with black squares (Experiment 1) and emotional facial expressions (Experiment 2). Results suggested that children's time perception was influenced by stimulus duration and improved gradually with increasing age. Both accuracy and reaction time were affected by the presentation sequence of emotional faces, indicating an effect of emotion localization. To summarize, young children's time perception showed effects of age, stimulus duration, and emotion localization.

Volitional spatial attention is lateralized in crows.

Animal Physiology Unit, Institute of Neurobiology, University of Tübingen, Auf der Morgenstelle 28, Tübingen 72076, Germany.

Like humans and many other animal species, birds exhibit left-right asymmetries in certain behaviours due to differences in hemispheric brain functions. While the lateralization of sensory and motor functions is well established in birds, the potential lateralization of high-level executive control functions, such as volitional attention, remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate that carrion crows exhibit more pronounced volitional (endogenous) attention for stimuli monocularly viewed with the left eye and thus in the left visual hemifield.

As an effective approach to overcome the electronic bottlenecks of conventional electrical radars, microwave photonic radars have demonstrated significant superiority in their perception and recognition capabilities. However, trade-offs exist among the reconfigurability, signal time-bandwidth product (TBWP), linearity, and phase coherence of current photonic radars, which ultimately weaken the overall performance. To address these challenges, a photonic transceiver based on electrically assisted synchronized lasers is proposed and demonstrated, which combines high resolution and multi-band reconfigurability.

Inspired by human skin, bionic tactile sensing is effectively promoting development and innovation in many fields with its flexible and efficient perception capabilities. Optical fiber, with its ability to perceive and transmit information and its flexible characteristics, is considered a promising solution in the field of tactile bionics. In this work, one optical fiber tactile sensing system based on a flexible PDMS-embedded optical fiber ring resonator (FRR) is designed for braille recognition, and the Pound-Drever-Hall (PDH) demodulation scheme is adopted to improve the detection sensitivity.

Three-dimensional (3D) light-field displays can provide natural stereoscopic visual perception and an intuitive viewing experience. However, the high production threshold and the lack of user-friendly editing tools for light-field images make it difficult to efficiently and conveniently generate 3D light-field content that meets various needs. Here, a text-driven light-field content editing method for 3D light-field display based on Gaussian splatting is presented.
