Destroying the myth that animals are colour blind
Many people think a lot of animals are colour blind and that humans have the best colour vision. This talk will destroy this myth. You will learn how humans see colour and that although a few animals do not see colour, the majority do. In fact many birds and fish have superior colour vision to our own. The talk will also include a discussion on colour blindness including testing the audience’s colour blindness. Most vision, however, occurs not in the eye, but in the brain. This will be demonstrated using a series of visual illusions.
