Whitetail Vizion is a whitetail deer vision simulator.Specifically, the app simulates the dichromatic (two colorreceptor) color perception of a whitetail deer. Extensive researchinto deer vision available has been used to create the process inthis app that simulates how a deer perceives color.
What does the app do?
Whitetail Vizion removes colors that deer do not see well, likered. Deer see blue very well, specific colors in particular, sothose colors are emphasized. Also, to simulate deer having only twotypes of cones (structure in the eye that detects specific colors)some colors in original images are changed to more accuratelyrepresent what a deer would see.
Color perception is of particular interest to deer hunters thatwant to better understand concealment and camouflage while hunting.Use the app to take a picture and it is processed into a simulatedview of a whitetail deer.
Humans perceive color differently than deer, to produce asimulation of what a whitetail deer sees, the app uses an algorithmto look at every pixel in the image. This is not a filter thatapplies a general change to an image, colors are shifted andchanges in brightness occur at the pixel level. This app canprovide a whole new perspective to choices for colors, patterns andmaterial used in camouflage and concealment for hunting.
Tips for use:
1) Place camo against a natural backdrop to find out what blends inand what stands out.
2) Take a picture of a hunter in a stand.
3) Take a picture of a ground blind.
4) Take pictures in a variety of light conditions, i.e. full sunand shade.
