Light is complicated: science

Light is so fascinating. I wish that we can either create technology, or adapt, in a way as to allow us to see infinite variations of light. For example, choose an indefinite number of parts of the electromagnetic spectrum to focus on at once. And each part that has been chosen could come from widely different, vastly separated, areas of the spectrum: for example, by taking a very narrow range of microwaves, then a very narrow range of X-Rays, and finally a very narrow range of Gamma Ray energy into focus. Assign each to a single color receptor, like NASA has done to their photos, and be able to have as many of these receptors as is possible to make; perhaps technology somehow will be able to expand the number of receptors in our eyes. 3D printing could make artificial eyes to allow this to be possible. Or, alternatively, we can combine a narrow band of light with a wide range of other type of light: For example, take all of light wavelengths from Gamma rays to Infrared, and let the second receptor detect only a small region of Microwave light. See where I'm going with this? Light itself is an energy that's very complicated, the more you think about it. A camera which could have presets, apps, dials, or buttons that could be used to select parameters, such as which wavelength/wavelengths of light can be mapped to which channel, and which exact range of wavelengths to be mapped onto each of the camera sensor's channels. Maybe buttons could be assigned to how intense each channel needs to be. There are so many possibilities, aren't there? Isn't it fascinating stuff?
