rlm@257 9 * Proprioception
rlm@257 10
rlm@257 11 Close your eyes, and touch your nose with your right index finger. How
rlm@257 12 did you do it? You could not see your hand, and neither your hand nor
rlm@257 13 your nose could use the sense of touch to guide the path of your hand.
rlm@257 14 There are no sound cues, and Taste and Smell certainly don't provide
rlm@257 15 any help. You know where your hand is without your other senses
rlm@257 16 because of Proprioception.
rlm@257 17
rlm@257 18 Humans can sometimes loose this sense through viral infections or
rlm@257 19 damage to the spinal cord or brain, and when they do, they loose the
rlm@257 20 ability to control their own bodies without looking directly at the
rlm@257 21 parts they want to move. In [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Mistook_His_Wife_for_a_Hat][The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat]],
rlm@257 22 a woman named Christina looses this sense and has to learn how to move
rlm@257 23 by carefully watching her arms and legs. She describes proprioception
rlm@257 24 as the "eyes of the body, the way the body sees itself".
rlm@257 25
rlm@257 26 Proprioception in humans is mediated by [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Articular_capsule][joint capsules]], [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_spindle][muscle
rlm@257 27 spindles]], and the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_tendon_organ][Golgi tendon organs]]. These measure the relative
rlm@257 28 positions of each pody part by monitoring muscle strain and length.
rlm@257 29
rlm@257 30 It's clear that this is a vital sense for fulid, graceful
rlm@257 31 movement. It's also particurally easy to implement in jMonkeyEngine.
rlm@257 32
rlm@257 33 My simulated proprioception calculates the relative angles of each
rlm@257 34 joint from the rest position defined in the blender file. This
rlm@257 35 simulates the muscle-spindles and joint capsules. I will deal with
rlm@257 36 Golgi tendon organs, which calculate muscle strain, in the [[./movement.org][next post]].
rlm@257 37
rlm@257 38 * Helper Functions
rlm@257 39
rlm@273 40 =absolute-angle= calculates the angle between two vectors, relative to a
rlm@259 41 third axis vector. This angle is the number of radians you have to
rlm@259 42 move counterclockwise around the axis vector to get from the first to
rlm@259 43 the second vector. It is not commutative like a normal dot-product
rlm@259 44 angle is.

rlm@258 141 * Visualizing Proprioception
rlm@258 142
rlm@259 143 Proprioception has the lowest bandwidth of all the senses so far, and
rlm@259 144 it doesn't lend itself as readily to visual representation like
rlm@259 145 vision, hearing, or touch. This visualization code creates a "guage"
rlm@259 146 to view each of the three relative angles along a circle.
