  2. Lateral line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_line

    The lateral line, also called the lateral line organ (LLO), is a system of sensory organs found in fish, used to detect movement, vibration, and pressure gradients in the surrounding water. The sensory ability is achieved via modified epithelial cells , known as hair cells , which respond to displacement caused by motion and transduce these ...

  3. Artificial lateral line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_lateral_line

    An artificial lateral line is an artificial biomimetic array of distinct mechanosensory transducers that, similarly, permits the formation of a spatial-temporal image of the sources in immediate vicinity based on hydrodynamic signatures; the purpose is to assist in obstacle avoidance and object tracking.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_systems_in_fish

    The lateral line in fish and aquatic forms of amphibians is a detection system of water currents, consisting mostly of vortices. The lateral line is also sensitive to low-frequency vibrations. It is used primarily for navigation, hunting, and schooling. The mechanoreceptors are hair cells, the same mechanoreceptors for vestibular sense and hearing.

    English: The lateral line mechanoreception system in fishes works even though the mass of motion signals generated by a fish's own muscles far outweighs the small signals of interest. Commands from the brain to the lateral line via efferent nerves copy the commands to the swimming muscles, suppressing "noise" from swimming movements to reveal ...
