  • @Reginatus
    @Reginatus 3 месяца назад +2

    I don't think you have heard of partial syneasthesia. In some forms of it, people have natural echolocation, through being able to see sound as visible light spectrum ranges. I have this exact form of synaesthesia, and sometimes if I'm around loud enough sound of specific frequencies, it can actually cause me temporary blindness. Not only that, i am largely unaffected by flashbangs. I haven't been in any police force at any point in my life, but i got to experience a flashbang going off once when an upstairs neighbor in an apartment i lived in got raided by both a SWAT team and the FBI at the same time. The flashbangs going off i straight up didn't hear, but they made my vision go from needing reading glasses to not needing them at all, and i don't need them to this day. The transition wasn't instant, but happened within a few minutes of the flashbangs going off. At first i had no idea what even happened, then i heard gunshots from the apartment upstairs, went outside to figure out what was going on, and the SWAT team could barely hear me asking why they were there. At first i was confused as hell as to why they couldn't hear me, then they told me to go back in my apartment, so i did. Couple days later, i go to the eye doctor, to figure out how my vision improved so much in only a few minutes. They ran several tests, until i realized it might have something to do with my synaesthesia, so i provided that information to the doc, who then said that it was highly unlikely but still a possibility it could cause effects like that, and that those should wear off in a few hours. Yet i had this effect still days after the initial cause that made it happen. It reduced the visual effects of sound on my actual sight. Still haven't had tge effect wane at all, it has been almost ten years since then.

    • @Reginatus
      @Reginatus 3 месяца назад +1

      I can still see sound when i close my eyes, enough that i can navigate in a dark enough room by way of said echolocation. It sounds insane until i show it to people, and the people i tell about it usually call me on it until i go to their house and still navigate in near pitch blackness in their house at might without turning on a single light.

    I swear by this "click" radar skill I have developed over my lifetime. When it's real dark I hold out both arms in front and click my fingers in sync as I'm walking around the house. You can hear how the sound changes depending on what's around. Though more importantly, when I stub my toe on furniture, I swear.

      But from what I understand the majority of blind people can't do this either because they haven't tried to learn, have tried and cannot or aren't aware this is a thing. And I feel like a product like this would be very helpful for the blind. Although you would definitely need to do some tweaks because in its current form this would be very interesting to take out into public

    People who are blind have the abilities to move around furniture and do it with a cane with tapping and listening for the return. You also with practice walk right up to a wall stopping short of walking into it by an air blanket. Air envelopes all objects...furniture and other objects. It is how Helen Keller survived before given a cane.

    I don’t like to stay in a bright places as it psychologically makes me feel less open but since I’ve been doing this for over 3 years, I can say for sure that yes, you can echolocate to a certain extend. However, if you’re more used to seeing with your eyes instead of listening to see then you will not exactly echolocate but more like “Touch everything to avoid obstacle”. The best you can get is telling whether you’re near the wall or not. To detect humans, you just listen to their footstep like how you hear an ambulance passing by you.

  • @theoriginalmonstermaker
    @theoriginalmonstermaker 5 месяцев назад +1

    I'm going to guess "not really" bc you only duplicated the sound projection aspect of the bats, and not the highly developed brain regions that process incoming sound to pick up on minute differences in reception.
    EDIT: Not to mention the always popular "nature vs nurture" discussion, in that bats have had the opportunity to live w that feature all their lives... but it WOULD be super interesting to provide that setup to a blind person, and let them train with it for a few months.

      @thethoughtemporium Oh I definitely will, I just wanted to make a prediction, and post my thoughts to see if anyone else had considerations to add.
      It will be interesting to see how accurate your visualization is, but regardless, training and the plasticity of the brain should make it much more effective in time.
      It would also be hilarious to have someone throw a football at you and see whether you can catch it (or at least defend yourself to keep it from pegging you 🤣 )
