Clearly the small animal sees the world looking slow motion

I wonder if there are people who wonder whether "Why can flies and shimarises escape quickly before being caught by humans?", But the view of small animals can get more information than human vision It is possible to do, the research result that the field of vision seems to be slow motionPopular ScienceIt is summarized in.

In order to investigate to what degree the eye of an animal can handle the light,Flicker value(CFF) was tested. The test flashes the light 4 times per second toward the eye of the animal and checks how many times the eyes contract. "A flicker value of 4" means that at a high-speed blinking of 4 Hz or more per second, the flash can not be perceived as flashing and appears to be stable light. For example, a fluorescent lamp blinks at a high speed that can not be perceived by human eyes, so it looks like a stable light. Researchers conducted a test to find out how much the animals seem to see the stable flashing lights.

ExperimentAccording to the fact that human beings can not distinguish light of 16 Hz or more, small animals can distinguish many times the high frequency light, for example, the starlings have several times the flicker value of humans Thing. Other than that, metabolism such as rats, squirrels and pigeons is high, and animals with smaller bodies show higher flicker values. Humans are said to be able to perceive 16 pictures per second, and animation videos etc. seem to be moving pictures because they are flowing at a speed faster than the speed which can be perceived by human's seconds. If an animal watches an animation movie made by a human being, animation different from a human being will be visible.

Even humans have individual differences in flicker values, and younger people say that more frames can be seen in seconds. Former professional baseball player called God of blowTetsuharu KawakamiI leave the word "the ball seems to stop", but some professional athletes have extraordinary eyesight, and in recent years they are doing training to train eyes so that ordinary people are a bit Perhaps a different world is being seen. I would like to experience what kind of throwaway animals are animals in which many frames are visible in seconds than sports athletes with superior vision.
