Side-by-side comparison of human trichromatic and canine dichromatic color vision
Compares human and dog color vision side by side. Humans have three cone types (L, M, S) while dogs have two (yellow and purple sensitive), resulting in a reduced color gamut. Both sets of cone responses are shown integrating the same time-varying spectrum, illustrating how dogs perceive a more limited color palette.
