Beyond human perception: exploring the hidden sensory worlds of animals
In short: While humans are limited to a narrow sensory range, many animals detect information that remains entirely invisible to us. This documentary explores the extraordinary biological systems that perceive the unseen.
The film examines 'superhuman' sensory systems that detect environmental signals passing unnoticed by ordinary humans. It explores how specific animals utilize magneto-reception to sense magnetic fields, electroreception to detect electric fields, and the ability to perceive infrared radiation.
