Colors that you aren't supposed to see

[BlackShinobi]

I found out i was colorblind like a year ago i was like WTF. Its just wierd finding something like that out. Its like finding out your stupid or something because you find out everyone else knows something you don’t.
but yeah, one of my favorite discussion topics in school was about certain animal can see colors and hear things we can’t, which means we could be oblivious to all types of this such as humanity mislabeling a color and not knowing it. Which is also like finding out you are stupind but at least its your whole species this time.

what if everybody saw the same colors differently? like my green would be your white? what if psychos’ color orientation were all neon colored and that’s what drove them crazy? what the hell am i typing?

I can never get cross images to work.

Magic Eye pictures are God’s counter-pick to my ability to perceive the world.

When you think it’s a boat, they’re just playing mind games, counter with imagining the leaning tower of piza. It’s usually that.

Couldn’t see the mixed colors Do you have to do the same thing you do for Magic Eye or something? I just kind of crossed my eyes and tried to get them to go together.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantis_shrimp#Classification_and_the_claw

Both types strike by rapidly unfolding and swinging their raptorial claws at the prey, and are capable of inflicting serious damage on victims significantly greater in size than themselves. In smashers, these two weapons are employed with blinding quickness, with an acceleration of 10,400 g and speeds of 23 m/s from a standing start [6], about the acceleration of a .22 calibre bullet [7][8]. Because they strike so rapidly, they generate cavitation bubbles between the appendage and the striking surface [6]. The collapse of these cavitation bubbles produces measurable forces on their prey in addition to the instantaneous forces of 1,500 newton that are caused by the impact of the appendage against the striking surface, which means that the prey is hit twice by a single strike; first by the claw and then by the collapsing cavitation bubbles that immediately follow [9]. Even if the initial strike misses the prey, the resulting shock wave can be enough to kill or stun the prey.

The snap can also produce sonoluminescence from the collapsing bubble. This will produce a very small amount of light and high temperatures in the range of several thousand kelvin within the collapsing bubble, although both the light and high temperatures are too weak and short-lived to be detected without advanced scientific equipment. The light emission and temperature increase probably have no biological significance but are rather side-effects of the rapid snapping motion. Pistol shrimp produce this effect in a very similar manner.

Alpheidae

The snapping shrimp competes with much larger animals, like the Sperm Whale and Beluga Whale, for the title of ‘loudest animal in the sea’. The animal snaps a specialized claw shut to create a cavitation bubble that generates acoustic pressures of up to 80 kPa at a distance of 4 cm from the claw. The pressure is strong enough to kill small fish and shatter glass.[7] It corresponds to a zero to peak pressure level of 218 decibels relative to one micropascal (dB re 1 ?Pa), equivalent to a zero to peak source level of 190 dB re 1 ?Pa at the standard reference distance of 1 m. Au and Banks measured peak to peak source levels between 185 and 190 dB re 1 ?Pa at 1 m, depending on the size of the claw.[8] Similar values are reported by Ferguson and Cleary.[9] The duration of the click is less than 1 millisecond.

The snap can also produce sonoluminescence from the collapsing cavitation bubble. As it collapses, the cavitation bubble reaches temperatures of over 5,000 K (4,726.85 degrees Celsius).[10] In comparison, the surface temperature of the sun is estimated to be around 5,778 K. The light is of lower intensity than the light produced by typical sonoluminescence and is not visible to the naked eye. It is most likely a by-product of the shock wave with no biological significance. However, it was the first known instance of an animal producing light by this effect. It has subsequently been discovered that another group of crustaceans, the mantis shrimp, contains species whose club-like forelimbs can strike so quickly and with such force as to induce sonoluminescent cavitation bubbles upon impact.[11]

:wow:

aren’t blue and orange opposites? like mixing them would make gray? didn’t see the cool colors everyone else is seeing though…

Blue and orange are opposites when you’re mixing paint. There’s like different colour models that I really can’t remember anymore and am too lazy to look up.

[Pablo_the_Mex]

I can’t see it and my eyes fucking hurt now. Also, I never got those magic eye things to work on me. Fuck this shit.

[sandwichcookie]

wow my eyes refuse to cooperate. I’m pretty good at doing the cross eyed, stereo vision trick and what I see in the middle is constantly changing like one eye or the other simply insists on dominating the color. it’s either red or green or some kind of gradient that’s constantly shifting around.

[Miss_Darkness]

So is it supposed to look kind of like one color filtered through the other on a pixel-by-pixel basis? That’s what it seems like to me. Like the red is in the background and the green is covering it, but only at like 80% opacity and on every other pixel, but the transition is very smooth.

Very interesting.

Thats what i see as well
my left eye hurts now for some reason …

[P_nToM]

The Red/Green one looks interesting…The best way to describe it would be a rusty burning colour.

My left eye also hurts now.

This is what happens when I cross my eyes for red/green. The blue/yellow just comes up as a green.

[Amazing_Funbags]

Same for me and I don’t get it =/

Interesting article about bee eyesight http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-473897/A-bees-eye-view-How-insects-flowers-differently-us.html

[Mr_List]

the red green one just look yellowy for me and the blue yellow just blended back and forth between blue and yellow.

[Chritorisu]

Is it just me, or do the colors just rotate back and forth, and when they do cooperate, it just creates a gradient between the two?

If you gaze at it for long enough, you can make out a hidden message that says which game won the Evo 2010 players’ choice poll.

Other organisms can see colors that we humans are blind to. For example, honeybees can see colors in ultraviolet light that is invisible to humans, though they see less of the red end of the spectrum. Birds can see not only ultraviolet but also red light; notice the red coloring of many flowers that are pollinated by birds. Unlike humans and bees, which each have systems containing three different color-sensing visual pigments, birds’ retinas contain four different pigments. This implies that the RGB monitors that can mimic any color for a human eye would need to project an additional color in order to mimic all of the colors a bird can see.

We’re exploring the universe with somewhat busted equipment since we are all essentially colorblind. Just take a few minutes and try working out what a fourth primary color would look like that doesn’t contain any red, blue or yellow, and then once you give up take another minute to realize its been in front of your face your whole life and you’re never going to see it. I always found that kind of trippy.

I have to concerntrate to not see the rare colour
