    SciShow is the common mans science channel and I love it.
    You go through day to day interesting things and don't swamp us with too much technical jargon.
    This is the kind of thing I can show to a kid to get them interested in science yet still be interested myself.

    Humans with extraordinary vision also exist. The most common male color-blindness is caused by having the red cones mutate to be centered too close to the same light as green cones. Sisters of men with this type of color-blindness occasionally inherent both normal red cones from their father and mutated ones from their mother, giving them *_four sets of cones_* instead of the usual three, making them true tetrachromats. Achromatopsia, a particularly rare form of colorblindness where sufferers have no color sensing cones at all affects 10% of the population of the Micronesian island of Pingelap. These people are so sensitive to light they are nearly nocturnal. Their extraordinary night vision is sensitive enough to let them take their boats fishing in near total darkness. Our retinas can sense the near-ultraviolet, but our lenses are opaque to it and block it. Impressionist Claude Monet had the lens of his right eye removed (an early type of cataract operation). After he recovered, his paintings were suddenly dominated by blue. Many have suggested that the operation gave him the ability to see blurrily into the near ultraviolet while he used his still clouded left eye to see detail.

    the amount of people who have never used an RGB based software is too damn high!
    BTW explanation to try and prevent future comments:
    Primary colors for light emitters (aditive - the sun, a lamp, this display): red, green and blue.
    Primary colors for light absorbers (subtractive - paint): cyan, magenta and yellow (cyan and magenta are sometimes simplified to blue and red because they are lighter shades of these).
    Fun fact: if you combine RGB lamps, you get white (they sum up). if you combine CMY ink, you get black (they block each other).

      Horizontal pupils increase a goats peripheral vision so they can watch out for predators. And to prevent the pupils from turning vertical while they graze, they have evolved the ability to rotate them to keep them parallel to the ground.

      +Haku infinite Nope. We have no reason to think that an insect's brain processes and renders each image from each lens as its own seperate image of the world. In fact, given everything we know about how visual information is processed, we have reason to believe that flies, like everything else, stitch together the data from each ommatidia into a single pixellated blurry image that functions much like human peripheral vision (great at detecting movement, relative position and sudden changes but rubbish for fine detail).

      well, they simply dont know. nor could they really. consider the fly eyes, oftentimes movies will show a bunch of almost the same image tiled on the screen. but that is like assuming humans see two images, i mean we do but generally we interpret it as one unified image.
      if you looked through a flys eye, well you wouldnt be able to understand it. but if you could see as a fly did then you would probably see one cohesive image. which may or may not have noticable curvature to it, we dont know.
      he mentioned that the rocky eyes resulted in pixelated images when they tested them. and that makes sense, but the animal wouldnt see it as pixelated, if he saw it at all like we do. he might process it similar to sound or something completely different.

    Awesome info! You should do an entire segment on chameleon eyes though, those are crazy.
    Chameleon eyes can not only move independently, but they perceive depth in a hell of a strange way. We use the differences in image from both our eyes to judge distance but it's difficult to do that when your eyes are looking at completely different things.
    For chameleons then, they have developed a strange shaped eye that focuses the image well beyond the centre of rotation of the eye, and judge the distance of an object really oddly by making small darting movements of the eye and judging the distance by how much a target moves relative to other things in the image. For example, something farther away will appear to move less distance than something in the foreground or something along those lines.

So many crazy creations of nature can be co-opted to help us. If only we could keep our technologies ethically used 100%

    Michael, I am wondering though; our cats have vertical pupils. But when they go into hunt mode their pupils go wide open, this seems counter productive with your new knowledge? Or do they need all the detail they can get to spot potential prey (and thus get rid of the blurriness?)
