Many animals possess colour vision that outperforms humans and some also have a type of vision we lack altogether, polarisation vision. By comparing design and discovering strategies from the sensory systems of animals on The Great Barrier Reef, the project will enhance our knowledge of their sensory world, their ecosystem and broader visual neuroscience.

许多动物拥有比人类更好的色觉，有些动物还拥有我们完全缺乏的一种视觉，偏振视觉。通过比较大堡礁动物感官系统的设计和发现策略，该项目将增强我们对它们的感官世界，生态系统和更广泛的视觉神经科学的了解。
