  2. Sensory systems in fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_systems_in_fish

    Fish and some aquatic amphibians detect hydrodynamic stimuli via a lateral line. This system consists of an array of sensors called neuromasts along the length of the fish's body. [11] Neuromasts can be free-standing (superficial neuromasts) or within fluid-filled canals (canal neuromasts).

  3. Vision in fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vision_in_fish

    Usually, light enters through the fish eye at the cornea and passes through the pupil in order to reach the lens. Most fish species have a fixed size of the pupil while a few species have a muscular iris that allows for the adjustment of the pupil diameter. Fish eyes have a more spherical lens than other terrestrial vertebrates.

  4. Ampullae of Lorenzini - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampullae_of_Lorenzini

    Ampullae of Lorenzini are physically associated with and evolved from the mechanosensory lateral line organs of early vertebrates.Passive electroreception using ampullae is an ancestral trait in the vertebrates, meaning that it was present in their last common ancestor. [7]

  5. Fish anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_anatomy

    In practice, fish anatomy and fish physiology complement each other, the former dealing with the structure of a fish, its organs or component parts and how they are put together, such as might be observed on the dissecting table or under the microscope, and the latter dealing with how those components function together in living fish.

  6. Fish physiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_physiology

    Fish physiology is the scientific study of how the component parts of fish function together in the living fish. [2] It can be contrasted with fish anatomy, which is the study of the form or morphology of fishes. In practice, fish anatomy and physiology complement each other, the former dealing with the structure of a fish, its organs or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_architecture

    Block diagram of a basic computer with uniprocessor CPU. Black lines indicate control flow, whereas red lines indicate data flow. Arrows indicate the direction of flow. In computer science and computer engineering, computer architecture is a description of the structure of a computer system made from component parts. [1]

  8. SQUID - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQUID

    In 2006, A proof of concept was shown for CNT-SQUID sensors built with an aluminium loop and a single walled carbon nanotube Josephson junction. [16] The sensors are a few 100 nm in size and operate at 1K or below. Such sensors allow to count spins. [17] In 2022 a SQUID was constructed on magic angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) [18] [19]

  9. Machine perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_perception

    Machine perception is the capability of a computer system to interpret data in a manner that is similar to the way humans use their senses to relate to the world around them. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The basic method that the computers take in and respond to their environment is through the attached hardware .
