#1
Front (Question)

How many neurones are present in the brain

Back (Answer)

100 billion

#2
Front (Question)

How much % of total energy does the brain consume

Back (Answer)

20% of total energy

#3
Front (Question)

Why doesn’t the brain feel pain

Back (Answer)

It has no nerves Therefore feels no pain

#4
Front (Question)

What type of relationship do curvature and velocity have

Back (Answer)

positive relationship

#5
Front (Question)

what is space

Back (Answer)

a set of points with some added structures

#6
Front (Question)

What does Fitts Law state

Back (Answer)

If you need accuracy you become slower

#7
Front (Question)

What are coordinates

Back (Answer)

A set of numbers that uniquely determine a point in space

#8
Front (Question)

Can one space have multiple coordinate systems

Back (Answer)

Yes

#9
Front (Question)

What can a coordinate frame also be called

Back (Answer)

A reference frame

#10
Front (Question)

Define egocentric

Back (Answer)

coordinate system attached to our body

#11
Front (Question)

Define allocentric

Back (Answer)

coordinate system attached to external world/ object

#12
Front (Question)

If you are trying to find kinetics is it inverse of forward dynamics

Back (Answer)

Inverse you are trying to find kinetics so you go from kinematics –> kinetics which is inverse

#13
Front (Question)

If you are trying to find kinematics it inverse of forward dynamics

Back (Answer)

Forward you are trying to find kinematics so you go from kinetics –> kinematics which is forward

#14
Front (Question)

What does kinetics refer to

Back (Answer)

forces & torques

#15
Front (Question)

What does kinematics refer to

Back (Answer)

distances & angles

#16
Front (Question)

What is newtons 2nd law

Back (Answer)

F=ma

#17
Front (Question)

What is feedforward control

Back (Answer)

You plan in advance Pre determined actions

#18
Front (Question)

What type of loop is feedforward control

Back (Answer)

open loop

#19
Front (Question)

what are the pros of feedforward control/ open loop

Back (Answer)

Movement can be controlled without gathering/ processing any external info good for fast movement

#20
Front (Question)

what are the cons of feedforward control/ open loop

Back (Answer)

Error made by controller accumulates over time No flexibility to environmental changes High cost of planning, no generalisation

#21
Front (Question)

what is feedback control

Back (Answer)

You have policies (rule/ strategy), controller is gathering/ processing sensory feedback eg- tube tourist example: ask around then go there, then ask again

#22
Front (Question)

what type of loop is feedback control

Back (Answer)

closed

#23
Front (Question)

what are the pros of feedback control/ closed loop

Back (Answer)

Flexible- can deal with unexpected events Robust- control error does not accumulate over time General- control is invariant to starting or goal opposition

#24
Front (Question)

what are the cons of feedback control/ closed loop

Back (Answer)

Processing sensory feedbacks is time consuming- not good for fast movement Controller can become unstable when sensory feedbacks are noisy and the feedback gain is high (how seriously one takes the answer) Can also become unstable when feedbacks are delayed
