NanoBrain.IReceptor Interface Reference

Description

A Receptor is a Nucleus which can receive input (called Stimulus) from outside the the cluster/brain.

It has the ability to distinguish stimuli from different things using an array of Nuclei

Member Function Documentation

GetName()

string NanoBrain.IReceptor.GetName

(

)

Get the name of the receptor.

Returns

The name of the receptor

Implemented in NanoBrain.Receptor.

AddReceptorElement()

void NanoBrain.IReceptor.AddReceptorElement

(

ClusterPrefab

prefab

)

Extends the nucleiArray with an additional element.

Parameters

prefab

A prefab of the nucleus to add?

Implemented in NanoBrain.Receptor.

RemoveReceptorElement()

void NanoBrain.IReceptor.RemoveReceptorElement

(

)

Removes the last element from the nucleiArray.

Implemented in NanoBrain.Receptor.

AddArrayReceiver()

void NanoBrain.IReceptor.AddArrayReceiver	(	Nucleus	receiverToAdd,
		float	weight = 1
	)

Add a receiver for this receptor array.

Parameters

receiverToAdd	The receiving Nucleus
weight	The initial weight to use for the synapses

This function will add a synapse to the receiver for each element in the nucleiArray.

Implemented in NanoBrain.Receptor.

ProcessStimulus()

void NanoBrain.IReceptor.ProcessStimulus	(	Vector3	inputValue,
		int	thingId = 0,
		string	thingName = null
	)

Process an external stimulus.

Parameters

inputValue	The value of the stimulus
thingId	The id of the thing causing the stimulus
thingName	The name of the thing causing the stimulus

Implemented in NanoBrain.Receptor.

Property Documentation

nucleiArray

Nucleus [] NanoBrain.IReceptor.nucleiArray

getset

The array of nuclei used to track multiple things sending stimuli.

The size of the array determines the maximum number of things which can be distinguished

Implemented in NanoBrain.Receptor.
