How cephalopod camouflage works

3:52dragonflies in the eyes of flies. So, it's a ubiquitous biopigment. It's got a really high value because it's optoctric, which means it can change its color with a response to electrochemical potential. So that's how the octopus can sometimes become super vibrant and then also at the same time become this they look like a rock, right? They can they can be like pulsing with like >> strobe lights and at the same time do all of these other things. If we can if we can replicate this biosynthesis, right? Then we can go to next generation electronics like electrochromic displays. The main thing that's nice about this is it's biompatible. So I

4:32mean one thing that I was thinking was like what if you had like color changing tattoos >> where like if you flex then like it like just changes it, you know. Yeah. Yeah. Like it's like Avatar, dude. [laughter] >> It is like Avatar. That's a great reference. >> So So it would be really cool, right, if we could make a bunch of this. So when you say it's biocompatible, it means that it could interact with our as as as biological beings, our our system
