Provides Sensor classes. More...

Namespaces

 create_array
 NOT USED SINCE v0.42! Provides functions to create arrays of sensors (e.g.
 
 dummy_sensor
 Provides the DummySensor class, which is actually a Sensor-object that does nothing.
 
 filter_funcs
 Contains filter functions, creating input filters that will be multiplied with an array of input intensities that a sensor 'observes'.
 
 photoreceptor
 Provides classes (Sensors) that emulate a photoreceptor cell as in van Hateren and Snippe's paper 'Information theoretical evaluation of parametric models of gain control in blowfly photoreceptor cells',2001.
 
 sensor
 Holds the basic Sensor class.

Sensors contain information about 'what they see' in the System's Surroundings. They have connections to Components to pass their sensory information to a network of Components. Usually you should provide the Sensor's output to an input filter, which has the job to somehow normalize the Sensor's output. A tool for normalization is not provided in the Sensor unit itself yet.
