PVRR (Pet Virtual Reality Research Technical Brief & Synopsis) have developed the world’s first CatVR system, and it’s not what it seems, as this device utilizes EEG and EKG technology to monitor feline emotions to certain stimuli. This accounts for the fact that cats see less color, but see have better visibility in the dark compared to their human counterparts. Continue reading for more pictures and information.
