Technological innovation facilitates the practice of "three-dimensional ecology ''

The development of "three-dimensional ecology"reveals refreshing phenomena and challenges us to use three-dimensional information for studying animal perception. We created a new processing framework to quantify the shielding ef-fect using a reconstructed environmental structure. The framework achieves three objectives: 1) the observed is introduced, 2) the observed space size can be flexibly dealt with, and 3) three-dimensional attributes are assigned to the environmental structure. Our processing framework is an applicable method to "three-dimensional ecology"based on the three-dimensional attributes of physical structures. We advocate for greater emphasis on "three-dimensional ecology"to recreate realistic animal living conditions and better reveal their be-haviors.
