  • People in an operating theater with a patient on the table. Caption: is implanted surgically and stimulates nerves

    Kathy Blake is blind but two years ago she got a glimmer of hope. She heard about an artificial retina being developed by a company called Second Sight and the Doheny Eye Institute in Los Angeles. It was experimental, but Kathy was the perfect candidate. With funding from the National Science Foundation, a camera is built into a pair of glasses, sending radio signals to a tiny chip in the back of the retina. The chip, small enough to fit on a fingertip, is implanted surgically and stimulates nerves that lead to the vision center of the brain.

  • Spider with long narrow legs and a small narrow body at the center of a delicate spider web. Caption: Spiders are arachnids.

    This episode focuses on the adaptations of arachnids and insects. Spiders inhabit backyards that design and build intricate silk webs. They have also developed numerous adaptations that make them efficient predators. Backyards also have insects living above and below the water's surface. More amazing adaptations are introduced including incomplete metamorphosis, eye development, and remarkable breathing apparatus. Part of the "Backyard Bugs & Other Arthropods" series.
