Eric Weihenmeyer the blind climber guy was involved in an experiment which fitted his tongue with pins that made a picture of what a camera mounted on his head was pointed at ... and he was able to "see" with his tongue - navigate around unfamiliar surroundings and avoid obstacles and such. "On Intelligence" is the book to read.

"Sensory Exotica: A World Beyond Human Experience" by Howard C. Hughes (not the famous guy) lists 9 senses that humans do not have. Polarized vision, UV and IR spectrums, electroreception, sonar & echolocation (bats and dolphins/whales), ultrasonic hearing, magnetosense, and pheremone smelling
