RE: [KV] Colors (was Re: Movies)

Yes it would.

Our Primary colors are the upper end of our vision spectrum (Blue) and
the
lower end of our vision spectrum (Red) and the percieved middle of our
spectrum (yellow).

For KV, it would be the upper end of thier UV vision, the lower end of
thier
IR vision and the percieved middle. All three will effect the range of
colors they can identify.

We would probably need to invent a whole other set of colors based on
the
addition of IR/UV perception. What do you call 30% Green 27% UV Blue and
37%
IR red?

It is also interesting that as we view colors toward the top of our
spectum,
they seem to mix with the bottom end of our spectrum (purple is
percieved as
a mix of blue and red).

This raises the question of what are the primary colours if the KV see
in
IR. The primary colours are such that mixing them produces the other
colours
WE can see, but wouldn`t it be different if the KV visual spectrum is
shifted up (?) the frequency?
