Scientists created the world's smallest 3D glasses for a praying mantis!
To dive deeper into how the praying mantis' neurobiology pieces together a 3D model of prey, researchers at Newcastle University devised what may be the greatest experiment in the history of.

These praying mantises get to wear tiny 3D glasses, for science Vox
In a new study, scientists glued the world's tiniest 3D glasses on 20 praying mantises ( Sphodromantis lineola) and showed them a series of movies depicting patches of moving dots—potential "prey items"—camouflaged against a matching background. The insects tried to catch "prey" that appeared to be within 2.5 centimeters of their perch.
