TED-Ed: Eye vs. camera - Michael Mauser

The video explores the differences between human eyes and cameras in perceiving the world. It highlights how eyes and cameras both have lenses and photoreceptors but function differently. The eye's lens changes shape to focus, unlike a camera's lens. Human retinas have multiple photoreceptors, leading to color perception differences. The video also discusses the uneven distribution of photoreceptors in the retina, causing phenomena like blind spots and visual illusions. Eye movements and the brain's role in vision are also covered, emphasizing the evolutionary efficiency of human vision despite its imperfections.
