Evolution of human colour vision other two human opsins. Middle Wavelength Sensitive Opsin (Green-sensitive opsin) – Encoded by the OPN1MW gene with a λmax of 530 found in the green region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Short Wavelength Sensitive Opsin (Blue opsin) – Encoded by the OPN1SW gene with a λmax of 430 found in the blue region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Certain parts of opsin genes and the vision of various species, including humans, has been known to change over time with different environmental changes. Recent studies have shown that primitive nocturnal mammalian ancestors had dichromatic vision consisting of UV–sensitive and red–sensitive traits. A change
Value sensitive design Value sensitive design Value sensitive design (VSD) is a theoretically grounded approach to the design of technology that accounts for human values in a principled and comprehensive manner. VSD addresses design issues within the fields of information systems design and human-computer interaction by emphasizing the ethical values of direct and indirect stakeholders. It was developed by Batya Friedman and Peter Kahn at the University of Washington starting in the late 1980s and early 1990s. This approach takes human values into account in a well defined matter throughout the whole process. Designs are developed using a tripartite investigation consisting of three
