Most ants have poor vision because they have a smaller number of sensors
for their vision.
Their vision is comparable to a small fruit fly's.
For example, at the low end of viewing capability,
the dark-adapted underground ant has only nine facets per eye.
But ants make good use of other senses such as smell,
to supplement vision from their small apposition eyes.
One would expect that their brains require considerable pre-programming
of various operations,
to coordinate their functions with limited vision.
They also have a significant communication system
as demonstrated by the way ants function together in groups
such as army ants.
The ant's visual processing system is very simple and compact
for its unique purpose.
