Conscious or dreaming people, having above-threshold stimuli, perceive intensity types {perceptual quality}. Conscious or dreaming people having below-threshold stimuli are not aware of qualities. Unconscious people have no awareness of quality. Perhaps, only mammals experience sense qualities.
types
Hearing can detect formant sound frequency bands. Vision can detect color bands: black, gray, white, red, green, blue, yellow, pink, brown, purple/violet, orange, and indigo/ultramarine. Smell can detect air molecule types: esters, ketones, aldehydes, sulfur compounds, aromatics, and alcohols. Taste can detect water molecule types: salts, acids, bases, glutamate, and sugars. Touch can detect pressure types: tickle, tingle, pain, and pleasure. Touch can detect temperature types: warmth and coolness.
categorization
Sense qualities have quality spectra and overlapping categories. Sense categories form continuous ranges, with categories similar to and opposite from other categories.
properties
Qualities are like coded and compressed intensity-frequency spectra. Qualities are on space surfaces. Qualities are continuous, not discrete. Qualities are not about space, time, or energy, but have space and time locations. Whole image determines sense qualities.
intensity
People do not experience pure quality. Only quality has intensity. Quality categories have intensity.
meaning
Sense qualities are the only things that have meaning.
