This is so well done that I had tears in my eyes near the end. I was emotionally moved! Longer exposure for the frog, and reflective cells for the cat, nature is so full of curiosities and these videos make them known. Thanks to everyone who made this.
yeah and the way they brought it in was also really disturbing, it eats a moth and then slowly turns around and stares at us with red eyes while swallowing the moth, creepy af
actually thought on the possibility of human intellect in bug eyed organisms... then I remembered the universal police in RIck and Morty, the ones that jailed you in before I saw your pic
2:12 -- Nikola Tesla believed we can do that too, he once thought we could see brain activity or project our thoughts using this technique, and maybe it could be the reason for how we sometimes "see" our imagination. it perhaps is more perceptive in cats because they have more visual neurons related with vision and projection! awesome!
So in ways an astronomer/photographer understands: Tarsiers have bigger lenses = more photons Toads have a slower shutter speed/longer exposure = collect more photons at the expense of image refresh rate Moths have larger pixels = more photons per pixel
I'm not sure why (maybe it was the detox or sleep deprivation) but at the end of basic training years ago I could suddenly see trees and people as white in the dark. It only happened once in my life, but it was amazing and gave me a huge advantage. Everyone else looked like toddlers stumbling around and tripping on something or nothing.
wayy more educational than I expected. I thought she was only gonna talk about the tapedum lucidum or however you spell it but I was very wrong. I actually learned things just now
They should do a follow up about those mirror cells. Try to really think about that. how does an cell made out of organic material reflect light so strongly?
I don't know really what's the correct answer, but it doesn't have to be organic. It could be crystals of a salt or something similar. I'll try to research it tho :D
Don't forget most of this animals use all the sensors at once to accomplish their will and necessities : photo receptors, chemical receptors, high and low frequency receptors. Good information. 👍
An interesting question: How does a visual system react, when it‘s after passing through a deficiency state like only having few photons available into a secondary richness? Is it possible to bent the acquired adaptations to a basically more powerful way of optical perception? I think it‘s therefore necessary to divide senses into relative senses(bound to certain events) and absolute ones(fed by a more or less constant flow of input). The processing of optical input is basically infinite in it‘s depth. So reenriched optical systems might be able to take a step forward, like vertebrates, that developed lungs to avoid lack of oxygen, were able to use their increased metabolism when returning into water.
i already knew this, because my dad is a photographer explained ISO to me :) big eye monkey explaination: this is also why a DSLR takes better low light pictures than your smartphone, because more light falls on each pixel because the sensor surface area is larger :) frog explaination: the amount of light per pixel depends on the sensor (and therefor pixel) size and the photons that hit the sensor/pixel that's why if you have a camera with manual controls, you can take photos in the dark that look good, but if the subject or the camera moves the image will be blurry.
owl eyes work like the tarsier's, they're front-facing and are very large for their body size. while they do see quite well, their main advantage is hearing. They have asymmetric ears that allow them to better pin point sounds. Also their round, slightly concave faces and face feathers help them to better focus sounds toward their ears, thus allowing them to hear the faintest sounds of their prey.
A Tarsier’s eyes are about 16mm wide I believe while a human has eyes as wide as 22-24mm (correct me if I’m wrong). With that in mind, shouldn’t humans see better than Tarsiers? Or does it have to do with their lenses and pupils? What about their photoreceptors? Do they have more rods and less cones?
Not gonna lie the cat seems to do it the most efficiently because it doesn't sacrifice detail like the hawk moth and doesn't require extra size like the Tarsier. Also shining eyes?? That's so cool
For camera guys-
Tarsier: Large aperture
Cats: Backlight
Frog: Slow shutter speed
Hawk Moths: High ISO
that's brilliant
Omg👍🏼😂
Omg nice :)
cool
cool
that picture of the human with tarsier eyes is nightmare fuel...
Lol it makes me think of Jonny Depp in Alice in wonderland
I know
its perfect
@@rebeccarakuza2845 me too

The lag is real with toads
Yea thats why they can't Minecraft PvP or be good at CS:GO

Are you talking about mario toads OR real toads? (Mario toads are adorable )

Can we appreciate how fluidly-continuous the animation was...!!! Great job animators...👍👍
Can I use your videos for translate kazakh language and to put youtube?
One more interesting thing about eyes is they have evolved independently 50-100 times throughout the earths life.
They still can't see John cena
😂😂😂😂
True
Dead meme
Notorious Gentleman yea because you comment 2 years later
Mr. PewDieCat my comment was not an insult
The tarsier drawing was creepy as fuck
yeah and the way they brought it in was also really disturbing, it eats a moth and then slowly turns around and stares at us with red eyes while swallowing the moth, creepy af
How about the human with huge eyes? *shudders*
Can we all appreciate how interesting the end lines of each and every TED-Ed video are? THEY MAKE YOU THINK 'wow... THAT was deep.'
The night is dark and buzzing with insects
shwifty.

This isn't Twitch.
They didn't teach you proper grammar either
TED-Ed will think you. Don't worry.
+Location lol
what
1:42 perfect character for a horror movie
Toad : Dude , did you see that?!
Other Toad : Gimme just 4 seconds buddy.

i always love the end statement of each ted ed video
I like the eerie animation style.
“... the size of grapefruits...”
*PTSD has entered the chat*
what an animation.
.. hats off to the creativity👏👍👌
So in ways an astronomer/photographer understands:
Tarsiers have bigger lenses = more photons
Toads have a slower shutter speed/longer exposure = collect more photons at the expense of image refresh rate
Moths have larger pixels = more photons per pixel
And cats have backlighting
How do you make Quality videos so fast?
1:42 Thank you, for the nightmare fuel.
So scary
Tarsier = large aperture
Tod = Long exposure
Moth = less pixel density hence large sensor size.
It's so amazing!!! Thank you so much for sharing these great videos
TED-Ed always knows how to make trivialistic stuffs interesting.
Amazing lesson Anna Stöckl. Truly Amazing.
The narrator's voice is very clear. Good job.
That hawk moth looked like an angry old man.
Would it be possible to undergo some kind of surgery to make human eyes like cat eyes?
it might take just a few millions of years to evolve, partially....
RIDDICK
If we can do that our eyes will glow
I was born with cat eyes.
Sarah Jangard FURRY
The art on this video is amazing
1:40 how my classmates be looking at me when i open a bag of chips
This video was awesome. One of my favorites. Illustration was spectacular too.
I would want cats eyes.
2:10 she/he is good at drawing cats lol
Who came here to see the cat?? Btw nice vid ted-ed...
I did. I have been interested in what they see recently.
Why do people even go to school? All they need is this channel
1:30. Just putting this out there.
All hail the mighty chupacabra
I knew someone was gonna comment that momment xD creepy though
He looks like a little demon... Poor tarsier. . .
1:25
I'm having nightmares....
I'm not sure why (maybe it was the detox or sleep deprivation) but at the end of basic training years ago I could suddenly see trees and people as white in the dark. It only happened once in my life, but it was amazing and gave me a huge advantage. Everyone else looked like toddlers stumbling around and tripping on something or nothing.
The usual darkness was a kind of purple btw.
interesting.
Thank you... Am learning more now than school.
Therapist: Tarsierman isn't real. He can't hurt you.
Tarsierman: 1:41
this is such a great series!
Favorite animation thus far! Keep up with the awesome vids!!!
Moths have disco balls on their heads XD
Don't know why but opening 3-4 sec music is Soo pleasent ❤️
It is amazing all the studying we humans have done.
wayy more educational than I expected. I thought she was only gonna talk about the tapedum lucidum or however you spell it but I was very wrong. I actually learned things just now
Congrats on 3M subscribers! Also, very interesting video.
For camera guys-
Tarsier: Large aperture
Cats: Backlight
Frog: Slow shutter speed
Hawk Moths: Pixel binning
it was really intresting and i loved the animation. thanks for doing great job, ted-ed
it would be a pleasure to give content for a lesson to u guys !
Thank you, cats, for inventing headlights for us.
"what is it that separate moths from men?".... uh
Nature is absolutely incredible.
This was great! Thanks!
Which software did you used to make this beautiful video??? 👍
Awesome video ! Thank you 💕

You’ll see less colors though
@@Izakokomarixyz id take that sacrifice to see in the dark
Cats are colorblind
I like the idea of cat's eyes. Is it possible to make night vision goggles like that? (Notice how backlight on cameras work?)

What if we use this technique to watch black holes?
but, how does this affects Harambe?!
dicks out for harambe
Lmfao
Pussy spread for Harambe
it doesnt affect harambe but harambe affects it.
It doesn't affect Harambe because he's dead
I don't get what the video is talking about, I can see in the dark.
Yeah you can see in the dark but not very well. Or at least not as well as nocturnal animals.
Great video :)
Question: Are there any animals able to see infrareds ? Cause that could be a pretty usefull skill at night, to detect other living beings !
More riddle videos please!!!!
Toad eyes have a lag of 4000ms. Let that sink in.
Me:huh.. *turns off lights and easily finds a case of water*
What would happen if I went nocturnal, would I adapt to see better in the dark?
This is so interesting, I love it
I thought i could feel a moth flying in my brain. And people called me crazy
3:03 imagine seeing the works at 4fps
i already knew this, because my dad is a photographer explained ISO to me :)
big eye monkey explaination:
this is also why a DSLR takes better low light pictures than your smartphone, because more light falls on each pixel because the sensor surface area is larger :)

@@evergreen1326 oh yeah also they can't turn their eyes because they are tubes so that's why they also turn their heads A LOT
A Tarsier’s eyes are about 16mm wide I believe while a human has eyes as wide as 22-24mm (correct me if I’m wrong). With that in mind, shouldn’t humans see better than Tarsiers? Or does it have to do with their lenses and pupils? What about their photoreceptors? Do they have more rods and less cones?

I wouldn't want to have the moths eyes I'd probably freak out if I see everything shapeless.
Not gonna lie the cat seems to do it the most efficiently because it doesn't sacrifice detail like the hawk moth and doesn't require extra size like the Tarsier. Also shining eyes?? That's so cool
good job
Thank u for teaching me this :)
this episode is terrifying...especially when watched at night... all sorts of horrible eyes in the dark!
Can anyone tell me the software used to make this video?
Great video 🤗😍
