     1.9 +  I created =CORTEX=, a complete environment for creating simulated
    1.10 +  creatures. Creatures can use biologically inspired senses including
    1.11 +  touch, proprioception, hearing, vision, and muscle tension. Each
    1.12 +  sense has a uniform API that is well documented. =CORTEX= comes with
    1.13 +  multiple example creatures and a large test suite. You can create
    1.14 +  new creatures using blender, a free 3D modeling tool. I hope that
    1.15 +  =CORTEX= will prove useful for research ranging from distributed
    1.16 +  swarm creature simulation to further research in sensory
    1.17 +  integration.
