RE: Tree of Life: The Primal Trichromacy: Colour vision

in #steemstem6 years ago

This can be seen in mantis shrimp who famously took the internet by storm with their fantastic colour vision as a result of having 12 colour photoreceptors. But although this is true, they lack the brain capacity and energy to actually put these to use in the way we imagine

Was just imagining what if humans had this photoreceptors, what potentials lies ahead?

Sort:  

If you check the link in a comment above I wrote, some people actually are tetrachromatic and can see something like 99 million more colours than the usual human. Our brains apparently are wired even for that!
