Hack the Senses - S01E04 Animal Perception

Hack the human's senses to stretch and expand our limits in perception. This event will focus its attention on the sensory universes that insects, birds, reptiles and other animals inhabit. If our perception of the world is shaped by the sense organs we are equipped with then our view of the world is just one among a range of possibilities. How can we draw inspiration from the animal kingdom and build technologies that allow us to experience other sensory worlds? This event will bring you leading researchers of animal perception and an Oculus to get a VR taste of what it's like to be a honeybee. There will be a hackathon organized between 24-26 June at FabLab London, where you will get the opportunity to try creating new sensory substitution and augmentation devices.
