Odor Sensor

Watch the video tutorial on using and detecting odors!


This object allows you to interface with odor sensors in the body of the biomechanical organism to the neural network. You can draw both input and output connections between this object and the neurons in the neural network editor. It has the same same properties as its base Node class. For a description of the basic node properties please click here. The main difference is that it also has a Body ID property where you can get a drop-down list of all the odor sensors in the organism. Once you select a joint this node essentially "stands-in" for the part in the body to allow you to transfer data back and forth. For more information on how odors are used in AnimatLab please see the section on odor sensors in the biomechanical editor help pages.
