Reply to comment by A_Notion_to_Motion in do we know how chameleons "see" Things with two independent eyes? Is it integrated? Side by side? by VivendusMoriendumEst

I remember my city's science museum had an exhibit on optics. There were goggles you could wear that would simulate eyes of different animals while you walked around some obstacles. It took some time to get used to.

The horse goggles were really trippy. Couldn't see in front, but could see wide on the sides.

Fun project for any DIY scientists out there that want something neat to bring to parties.

Uh TBH I'm specifically about those goggles though field of view and stuff can be simulated I'm a bit unconvinced we really understand animal (or even human) senses and qualia that well, but cool exhibit!
