Re: ATM Apochromatic Eyes?
>Are human eyes free of false color?
The lenses in our eyes are as poor as you can find. Color, coma, spherical,
you name it...they're all there in significant amounts.
Such a lens mounted in a camera would produce miserable images. Fortunately
the brain is one seriously good image enhancement processor -- but only for
the aberrations specific to our personal vision system. There are
exceptions, such as our "Sharpen" function isn't very efficient for
out-of-focus images.
If we could only get the old noodle to also process out the same aberrations
from EXTERNAL optical devices, we could forget all this figuring nonsense.
