This Mantis, is not the kind of locust we often encounter in our gardens, forests, rice fields, or our yard, but these are mantis shrimp that live in the ocean.

Called mantis, because the shape and nature very similar to the mantis grasshopper or more familiar with the grasshopper. The mantis shrimp is a marine crustacean, which is a member of the Stomatopoda order. Their body size can reach 30 centimeters, with the exception of a 38 cm specimen recorded. This one shrimp, has some features that distinguish it from other crustaceans.

The most prominent feature lies in his eyes. A biologist, from Bristol, England, Dr. Nicholas Roberts said that, "The shrimp's eyes far outweighed anything human beings could afford to date. The mantis shrimp can see polarized light and process it in ways humans can not. Polarized light waves can propagate straight or spin like a spiral. Unlike other creatures, this mantis shrimp not only sees polarized light in a straight or twisted form, but can also convert the light from one form to another. Therefore, these shrimps have better vision. So it is said also, mantis shrimp can see creatures from other dimensions, because the ability to see the unique.

DVD players work the same way. In order to process the information, the DVD player must change the polarized light that is aimed straight at the disk into a circular motion and then convert it back into a straight line. However, the mantis shrimp eye a step further. The standard DVD player only changes red light or in higher resolution players, but these mantis shrimp eyes can change all visible light colors.

The researchers also argue that by using a mantis shrimp eye as a model, engineers can develop DVD players that play discs with much more information than today's DVDs. "The most interesting is the eyes are amazingly simple," Roberts said. "The way it works is much better than any effort we've ever made to design a tool."

Another feature exists on the weapons attached to the body. Mantis prawns have two quite dangerous weapons, namely claws and boxing. claws use it like a spear to puncture its prey. And this is very sharp. For large size mantis shrimp, mantis shrimp claws, can cut human fingers. His other weapon is his fist. its speed can resemble 22 caliber bullet velocity and popularly known as thumb splitter.
