Solar-bugs tutorial



  • Ben : "Put the meter on resistance measurement, put the FLED in a dark
    environment, and measure the resistance. Do this for all your FLEDs."

    That's how I measure the resistance and balance the left and right eyes
    by using the same resistance Fleds. 

    Poke two holes, just big enough for the leads to pass through. Insert
    the Fled onto the cap and put the cap back onto the film canister. Measure
    the resistance of the fleds and group them together with same/very close
    resistance.

BEAM Circuits -- 74*24x-based motor drivers compared

  • In many ways, both the 74*240
    and 74*245 are equally handy
    for BEAM use; both have 20 pins, and so the main difference
    that most folks will care about is that one inverts drive
    inputs, while the other doesn't. Out of curiousity, I
    decided to torture test the two chips to see how they
    compared under load.

Chemotaxis in Bacteria

  • To the advantage of these bacteria, they are able to detect both attractant and repellant chemicals (6). When an increasing concentration of an attractant (sugar) or decreasing concentration of a repellant (fatty acid) is detected, the bacteria will decrease the frequency at which it tumbles and will thus swim for longer periods (5). This gives the bacteria more of an opportunity to swim into an area where the concentration of a needed chemical is high and away from areas which contain toxic chemicals. Conversely, detection of decreasing concentrations of attractants or increasing concentrations of repellants causes bacteria to increase their tumbling frequencies (5). While the tumbling remains random, increasing the amount of tumbling allows bacteria to change direction more often, hopefully oriented away from a repellant and toward an attractant gradient. What must be understood here is that the movement of these bacteria is still random just as it would be in a solution where there was no detection of chemical gradients; however, the bacteria modify their movement patterns by increasing and decreasing the frequency at which they change from swimming to tumbling.
  • motile bacteria move via rotation of one or more flagella, turning counter-clockwise when swimming and clockwise when tumbling

简单生物也能“记住”觅食路线 -单细胞生物|运动-生物通

  • 当一只阿米巴虫向右转弯后,下一次向左转的可能是向右转的2倍,反之亦然
  • 转弯时,阿米巴虫向预方向伸展部分“躯体”,在细胞的同侧产生了一道蛋白痕,这道痕使细胞临时性更倾向于向相反方向运动,这种机制使阿米巴虫来避免了圆周运动,“周游”的领域更广阔。

Nv neurons and Nv nets

  • We assume that the slowly changing waveform at the
    Nv
    input produces a single output transition when it crosses
    the Nv
    switching threshold. This is accomplished by using a 74HC14
    or similar CMOS Schmitt
    trigger
    . When 74HC04 or 74HC240s are used for Nv
    inverters some nasty oscillations occur during switching
    which makes these inverters unsuitable for most Nv
    networks greater than 2 Nv
    in series.
