A shrimp can be badass? Yes.Yes it can.

[Exotiic.]

They look beautiful.

This is brain washing

[666HiddenMaster666]

Would our brain be able to comprehend the new data or would it just "ignore" it rather than try to grasp it.
Or would we be able to see all the new colors and in the end end up damaging our brain synapses due to the massive new "data" that we've then been introduced to?

Would a human even be able to scientifically engineer something that does allow us to perceive all of this?

Most likely ignored since our eyes are only capable of detecting the wavelengths of "visible light"
Most likely because that's merely a hypothesis

Using machines, probably not. But with genetic engineering, possible since we should be able to transfer the DNA of the mantis shrimp to our DNA
Hypothetical also since our genetic engineering is still in development

Yes, our eyes are only capable a certain wavelength, but I mean.
This might come out wrong but whatever, the human eye sees about 70 frames per second but we have created cameras that are capable of recording/viewing so much faster, rendering a smoother view for us.

So by that logic I think it would be possible to somehow create an "eye" that allows us to see more FPS and greater wavelengths - I mean we have almost cured blindness, aids and a lot of other "defects".

So in theory it would be possible I think.

My only worry is that the brain wont be able to process it.

w0w that is amazing and awesome

This might come out wrong but whatever, the human eye sees about 70 frames per second but we have created cameras that are capable of recording/viewing so much faster, rendering a smoother view for us.

Since the frames are being shown at thousands per second, it allows us to see more at one time, thus giving us a smoother view

So by that logic I think it would be possible to somehow create an "eye" that allows us to see more FPS and greater wavelengths - I mean we have almost cured blindness, aids and a lot of other "defects".

Yea, I said genetic engineering should make it possible

My only worry is that the brain wont be able to process it.

Our brain > super computers so we should be able to adapt, plus if you're born with it you'd be used to it since those are what you've always seen

Ah, that's true, but since we are not born being able to see these colors then wouldn't that kind of overload us?

[TeddyBoy95]

OMG I want to meet one

For Kids haha.
Interesting nonetheless.

[KingDot]

10 points for bumping a thread

[DarkLordXYZ]

@Ethereal Simply amazing, read it 2 times, and bookmarked it!! Was gonna say a good shrimp is that in my stomach but this is just AMAZING!!

Not calling you one, just basically an easy explanation from Googling brain plasticity

Didn't say you were :P
Thanks for the information though.

[Mokou-Sama]

Wow, damn I got scared as hell...
Geesus! I hope I'll never encounter one, and If I do, I hope it will become my ally
