A film with a special ultraviolet coating could help birds recognize glass as a barrier. There are differences in the way bird sees the world, Christine Sheppard, a bird collision expert with the Virginia-based American Bird Conservancy told MPRs Morning Edition program. Birds actually can see into the ultra violet. They can see colors that humans cant. So this gives rise to the possibility of creating something that has a pattern in the ultraviolet that would warn birds ... but it wouldnt be something that humans would notice.
