Animating the study of visual communication

该项目旨在通过空间和时间将刺激设计与感知联系起来，揭示动态色彩信号如何促成信息交换。色彩信号的生物学研究在很大程度上是通过静态术语进行的，低估了自然环境的真正流动性。该项目希望通过可编程纳米无人机等创新方法来激发该领域的活力，以揭示在不同的观看条件下闪烁的颜色是如何被感知的。这些知识的进步有望产生新的智力范式和模型，并在电信、信息处理和视觉显示优化设计等领域具有重要的生物启示范围。

This project aims to inform how dynamic colour signals broker information exchange by connecting stimulus design with perception through space and time. Biological studies of colour signalling have largely proceeded via static terms that underestimate the true fluidity of natural contexts. This project aspires to animate the field using innovative approaches such as programmable nano-drones to reveal how flashing colours are perceived under diverse viewing conditions. The knowledge advances are expected to generate new intellectual paradigms and models, and have significant scope for bio-inspiration in areas such as telecommunication, information processing and the optimal design of visual displays.
