Eye Simulation

Hi! This is a passion project about the eye structure and evolutionary changes in different eye types, one of the most fascinating topics to explore. You will see diverse eye features you may never have seen before, and experiment with how they affect sight and color through different scenes. You will have the chance to see how other animal species see their world.

How to use it: pick an eye type and an animal, drag to rotate the 3D eye, and change its settings to see how its view of each scene changes.

Mobile Support: You can run this simulation on mobile. However, running it on PC is preferred.

Things to take away from this Sim:

1. How does eye anatomy change how we see the world?
2. How do other animal eyes see, and how do they compare to ours?
3. Evolutionary changes in each eye type, and what this tells about how eyes for each animal formed. 
4. Strengths and weaknesses of the human eye, and overcoming the bias that ours is unique and superior.
5. Colour and the electromagnetic spectrum: How much of the Universe and its colors do we really see?
