EPISODE SUMMARY On today’s episode, we discuss the visibility of high-vis clothing. Are they actually “high-vis”?
Topics: Why the results between lab and natural environments vary. How studies determine visibility. Which colors are best for high visibility. What makes humans most visible. Using high-vis colors to identify objects and humans. Practical takeaways. Quotes: “The general goal of this, is they just want to compare a whole heap of different factors.” “The ability to just spot high-vis and the ability to spot a human wearing high-vis, seem to be actually two different mental tasks.” “There’s been some suggestion in the research that we should actually standardize a human high-vis color.”
