ocsenave@265 12 # is that it is potentially easy to confuse the /function/ =f= with its

ocsenave@264 16 * JMonkeyEngine natively supports multiple views of the same world.
ocsenave@264 17
rlm@212 18 Vision is one of the most important senses for humans, so I need to
rlm@212 19 build a simulated sense of vision for my AI. I will do this with
rlm@212 20 simulated eyes. Each eye can be independely moved and should see its
rlm@212 21 own version of the world depending on where it is.
rlm@212 22
rlm@218 23 Making these simulated eyes a reality is simple bacause jMonkeyEngine
rlm@218 24 already conatains extensive support for multiple views of the same 3D
rlm@218 25 simulated world. The reason jMonkeyEngine has this support is because
rlm@218 26 the support is necessary to create games with split-screen
rlm@218 27 views. Multiple views are also used to create efficient
rlm@212 28 pseudo-reflections by rendering the scene from a certain perspective
rlm@212 29 and then projecting it back onto a surface in the 3D world.
rlm@212 30
rlm@218 31 #+caption: jMonkeyEngine supports multiple views to enable split-screen games, like GoldenEye, which was one of the first games to use split-screen views.

ocsenave@264 34 ** =ViewPorts=, =SceneProcessors=, and the =RenderManager=.
ocsenave@264 35 # =Viewports= are cameras; =RenderManger= takes snapshots each frame.
ocsenave@264 36 #* A Brief Description of jMonkeyEngine's Rendering Pipeline
rlm@212 37
rlm@213 38 jMonkeyEngine allows you to create a =ViewPort=, which represents a
rlm@213 39 view of the simulated world. You can create as many of these as you
rlm@213 40 want. Every frame, the =RenderManager= iterates through each
rlm@213 41 =ViewPort=, rendering the scene in the GPU. For each =ViewPort= there
rlm@213 42 is a =FrameBuffer= which represents the rendered image in the GPU.
rlm@151 43
ocsenave@272 44 #+caption: =ViewPorts= are cameras in the world. During each frame, the =Rendermanager= records a snapshot of what each view is currently seeing; these snapshots are =Framebuffer= objects.
ocsenave@265 45 #+ATTR_HTML: width="400"
ocsenave@272 46 [[../images/diagram_rendermanager2.png]]
ocsenave@262 47
rlm@213 48 Each =ViewPort= can have any number of attached =SceneProcessor=
rlm@213 49 objects, which are called every time a new frame is rendered. A
rlm@219 50 =SceneProcessor= recieves its =ViewPort's= =FrameBuffer= and can do
rlm@219 51 whatever it wants to the data. Often this consists of invoking GPU
rlm@219 52 specific operations on the rendered image. The =SceneProcessor= can
rlm@219 53 also copy the GPU image data to RAM and process it with the CPU.
rlm@151 54
ocsenave@264 55 ** From Views to Vision
ocsenave@264 56 # Appropriating Views for Vision.
rlm@151 57
ocsenave@264 58 Each eye in the simulated creature needs its own =ViewPort= so that
rlm@213 59 it can see the world from its own perspective. To this =ViewPort=, I
rlm@214 60 add a =SceneProcessor= that feeds the visual data to any arbitray
rlm@213 61 continuation function for further processing. That continuation
rlm@213 62 function may perform both CPU and GPU operations on the data. To make
rlm@213 63 this easy for the continuation function, the =SceneProcessor=
rlm@213 64 maintains appropriatly sized buffers in RAM to hold the data. It does
rlm@218 65 not do any copying from the GPU to the CPU itself because it is a slow
rlm@218 66 operation.

rlm@213 103 The continuation function given to =(vision-pipeline)= above will be
rlm@213 104 given a =Renderer= and three containers for image data. The
rlm@218 105 =FrameBuffer= references the GPU image data, but the pixel data can
rlm@218 106 not be used directly on the CPU. The =ByteBuffer= and =BufferedImage=
rlm@219 107 are initially "empty" but are sized to hold the data in the
rlm@213 108 =FrameBuffer=. I call transfering the GPU image data to the CPU
rlm@213 109 structures "mixing" the image data. I have provided three functions to
rlm@213 110 do this mixing.

rlm@213 132 #+end_src
rlm@112 133
rlm@213 134 Note that it is possible to write vision processing algorithms
rlm@213 135 entirely in terms of =BufferedImage= inputs. Just compose that
rlm@213 136 =BufferedImage= algorithm with =(BufferedImage!)=. However, a vision
rlm@213 137 processing algorithm that is entirely hosted on the GPU does not have
rlm@213 138 to pay for this convienence.
rlm@213 139
ocsenave@265 140 * Optical sensor arrays are described with images and referenced with metadata
rlm@214 141 The vision pipeline described above handles the flow of rendered
rlm@214 142 images. Now, we need simulated eyes to serve as the source of these
rlm@214 143 images.
rlm@214 144
rlm@214 145 An eye is described in blender in the same way as a joint. They are
rlm@214 146 zero dimensional empty objects with no geometry whose local coordinate
rlm@214 147 system determines the orientation of the resulting eye. All eyes are
rlm@214 148 childern of a parent node named "eyes" just as all joints have a
rlm@214 149 parent named "joints". An eye binds to the nearest physical object
rlm@214 150 with =(bind-sense=).

rlm@215 175 (bind-sense target cam) cam))
rlm@214 176 #+end_src
rlm@214 177
rlm@214 178 Here, the camera is created based on metadata on the eye-node and
rlm@214 179 attached to the nearest physical object with =(bind-sense)=
rlm@214 180 ** The Retina
rlm@214 181
rlm@214 182 An eye is a surface (the retina) which contains many discrete sensors
rlm@218 183 to detect light. These sensors have can have different light-sensing
rlm@214 184 properties. In humans, each discrete sensor is sensitive to red,
rlm@214 185 blue, green, or gray. These different types of sensors can have
rlm@214 186 different spatial distributions along the retina. In humans, there is
rlm@214 187 a fovea in the center of the retina which has a very high density of
rlm@214 188 color sensors, and a blind spot which has no sensors at all. Sensor
rlm@219 189 density decreases in proportion to distance from the fovea.
rlm@214 190
rlm@214 191 I want to be able to model any retinal configuration, so my eye-nodes
rlm@214 192 in blender contain metadata pointing to images that describe the
rlm@214 193 percise position of the individual sensors using white pixels. The
rlm@214 194 meta-data also describes the percise sensitivity to light that the
rlm@214 195 sensors described in the image have. An eye can contain any number of
rlm@214 196 these images. For example, the metadata for an eye might look like
rlm@214 197 this:
rlm@214 198
rlm@214 199 #+begin_src clojure
rlm@214 200 {0xFF0000 "Models/test-creature/retina-small.png"}
rlm@214 201 #+end_src
rlm@214 202
rlm@214 203 #+caption: The retinal profile image "Models/test-creature/retina-small.png". White pixels are photo-sensitive elements. The distribution of white pixels is denser in the middle and falls off at the edges and is inspired by the human retina.
rlm@214 204 [[../assets/Models/test-creature/retina-small.png]]
rlm@214 205
rlm@214 206 Together, the number 0xFF0000 and the image image above describe the
rlm@214 207 placement of red-sensitive sensory elements.
rlm@214 208
rlm@214 209 Meta-data to very crudely approximate a human eye might be something
rlm@214 210 like this:
rlm@214 211
rlm@214 212 #+begin_src clojure
rlm@214 213 (let [retinal-profile "Models/test-creature/retina-small.png"]
rlm@214 214 {0xFF0000 retinal-profile
rlm@214 215 0x00FF00 retinal-profile
rlm@214 216 0x0000FF retinal-profile
rlm@214 217 0xFFFFFF retinal-profile})
rlm@214 218 #+end_src
rlm@214 219
rlm@214 220 The numbers that serve as keys in the map determine a sensor's
rlm@214 221 relative sensitivity to the channels red, green, and blue. These
rlm@218 222 sensitivity values are packed into an integer in the order =|_|R|G|B|=
rlm@218 223 in 8-bit fields. The RGB values of a pixel in the image are added
rlm@214 224 together with these sensitivities as linear weights. Therfore,
rlm@214 225 0xFF0000 means sensitive to red only while 0xFFFFFF means sensitive to
rlm@214 226 all colors equally (gray).
rlm@214 227
rlm@214 228 For convienence I've defined a few symbols for the more common
rlm@214 229 sensitivity values.

rlm@215 388 shares the same =(register-eye!)= function, the eye will be registered
rlm@215 389 only once the first time any of the functions from the list returned
rlm@215 390 by =(vision-kernel)= is called. Each of the functions returned by
rlm@215 391 =(vision-kernel)= also allows access to the =Viewport= through which
rlm@215 392 it recieves images.
rlm@215 393
rlm@215 394 The in-game display can be disrupted by all the viewports that the
rlm@215 395 functions greated by =(vision-kernel)= add. This doesn't affect the
rlm@215 396 simulation or the simulated senses, but can be annoying.
rlm@215 397 =(gen-fix-display)= restores the in-simulation display.

ocsenave@265 399 ** The =vision!= function creates sensory probes.
rlm@215 400
rlm@218 401 All the hard work has been done; all that remains is to apply
rlm@215 402 =(vision-kernel)= to each eye in the creature and gather the results
rlm@215 403 into one list of functions.
