Abstract

A three-tube color TV camera simulating insect vision by means of the false-color method and sensitive at wavelengths of 300-650 nm (from UV to yellow) has been developed. In this camera, UV components are converted into red, while blue and green components are left in their original colors. The camera makes it possible to show with great color an insect's view of floral nectar guides and sexual differences in coloration in the cabbage white butterfly, colors of which are invisible to the naked human eye. Applications of this camera in many fields including education, environment and medicine can be expected.
