Disclosed are an omnidirectional ghost imaging method and an omnidirectional ghost imaging system based on the mechanism of bio-inspired retina-like. According to the application, the logarithmic polar mapping characteristic of the bio-inspired retina-like structure is utilized to generate an annular pattern sequence of the bio-inspired retina-like, and the pattern sequence is utilized to modulate a light source. After being reflected by the target around the curved mirror, the light is projected onto the curved mirror and diffusely reflected. According to the reversible characteristics of the optical path, the light after diffuse reflection is reflected to the original light source by the half mirror and half lens, and the reflected light intensity with target information is received by the bucket detector. The reflected light intensity measurement value with target information is correlated with the annular pattern sequence of bio-inspired retina-like used for modulating the light source.
