Capture events

Certain:

• conscious capture is performed by event
• event is either control change command or spotted changes in external properties
• conscious capture depends on capture resolution and capture area

Uncertain:

• sensor has unconscious ongoing capture with constant low resolution but wide area
• sensor can generate either full set of properties or only delta to previous transfer

External stream

Certain:

• one external stream item is transformed into zero, one or more sensor stream item
• external item can be ignored if sensor stream is not consumed in time

Uncertain:

• set of events produce external stream

Sensor stream

Certain:

• sensor stream has neural representation
• sensor stream item is represented by vector of variables
• sensor stream item is represented by sequence of vectors
• sequence can be of different length depending on focus
• width is the number of vector variables
• all items of one sequence have the same width - sequence width

Uncertain:

• vector variable is float
• sensor stream is stateless - every sensor item is derived only from one external item
• different sequences can have different width
• sequence has energy which is proportional to sequence width and length
• sequence energy is external stream item energy multiplied by energy amplifier
• energy amplifier factor is part of focus conrol state

Sensor neuron

Certain:

• each vector variable corresponds to specific sensor neuron
• sensor neuron can have multiple connections to neocortex networks
• one sensor neuron represents the same external properties for the same resolution

Uncertain:

• sensor neuron does not have fixed semantic
• one sensor neuron can represent different external properties for different resolutions

Finally for the project purposes

• conscious capture by event
• full property set transfer
• throtteling of external stream
• external stream item is represented by variable-length sequence of sensor stream items
• float variables
