About Bee Vision
SEE WHAT BEES SEE Bees have a superpower. They can see something in the sky that humans cannot: an invisible compass made of polarized light. When sunlight passes through the atmosphere, it creates a hidden pattern across the entire sky. This pattern always points to the sun, even on cloudy days. For 400 million years, bees, ants, and butterflies have used it to find their way home. Bee Vision reveals this hidden world on your iPhone. BEE VIEW See the world through compound eyes. Your camera transforms into hexagonal facets, just like a bee's vision. The colors reveal the polarization pattern: orange near the sun, blue at 90° away, where the signal is strongest. Capture stunning photos and share what you see through insect eyes. POLARIZATION COMPASS A real navigation tool. Point your phone at the sky and see the polarization pattern overlaid on the real world. The compass shows your heading, the sun's position, and how polarized the light is in any direction. Open the Sky Map to see the full pattern across the entire sky at once. FEATURES - Real-time polarization visualization - Hexagonal compound eye camera filter - Capture and share photos with polarization overlay - Full sky polarization map - Works through clouds, that's the whole point - Accurate sun position based on your location - Demo mode for indoor use or at night - No ads. No subscriptions. Just science. THE SCIENCE IS REAL This isn't a simulation. Bee Vision calculates the actual polarization pattern using your GPS location and precise astronomical formulas. What you see is what's really in the sky, you just couldn't see it before. Point at the sky. See what bees see.
