"Capturing the World: A Glimpse into How Animals Perceive Color"
TL;DR Summary
An international team of researchers has developed a video camera system that captures how various animals perceive color, providing insights into their vision systems. The camera system can reveal hidden cues guiding animals with different vision systems, such as bees not seeing red and birds having markings more visible in ultraviolet. By translating animal vision into the human visual range, the system allows for the study of scenarios where animals make decisions based on color, with potential applications in fields such as agriculture and window design.
