Structural dynamics and neural representation of wing deformation.

Alexandra M. Yarger, Masateru Maeda, Igor Siwanowicz…·Huai‐Ti Lin

The paper studies how dragonfly wings deform and how mechanosensors encode this information, showing that wing structure passively constrains deformation patterns to simplify sensing.

Fly motion vision is tuned to maximize signal energy transfer between mechanical input and sensor output

James Sean Humbert, Holger G. Krapp, James D. Baeder…·Graham Keith Taylor

The paper shows that blowfly motion vision is tuned to maximize signal energy transfer between mechanical input and sensor output, improving observability and controllability.
