I glanced over that article to check and see if it was the same thing. I didn't catch the UV spectrum that I thought was really interesting so I assumed it was different. It does look familiar though...

How they show the perception on TV is not how it really is. If a viper is looking at a balloon filled with hot water and a balloon filled with cold water, it is probably not going to look red or blue. I would bet that snakes gain a representation of their environment based on a combination of vision, smell, temperatures, and vibrations... I would say humans get an interpretation of their environment mainly by sight. Because of this we can't really say how heat or scents are organized by the brain when it comes to perception.
