My special was “Andrew Mayne: Ghost Diver” where I built a suit to fool great white senses. Not shown in the special was the work we did trying to understand how sharks process visual data differently than humans. One interesting note is that they don’t seem to do image segmentation like we do (people in a shark cage are just a noisy box-thing and not discreet objects.)
Again, your project is great. I’ve been trying to find a simple workflow to do something like this (currently it’s remove.bg and OpenCV - with a lot of tinkering.)
