We humans, are limited in our perceptions ...Eyes & Brain....
Some facts:
We are slow in capturing images. Time it takes, to view something in
seconds, compared to other sensors, in a fast image capturing mode:
Eyes & Brain Still Camera
Video Camera
1/50
1/8000
1/100000
If the the object is faster than our Eyes & Brain, is it nonexistant ?
We are limited in the spectra we see, in nanometers, compared
to
other sensors:
Eyes & Brain Silicon
Sensor in Cameras
400 to 700
400 to 1100
