Detailed Description

Realistic Monkey Eye or Head controller.

This is part of an attempt at a simplified approach to the MonkeySaccadeCopntroller, which turned out quite complex because of the interdependency between head and eye movements. Here, we fake it by having independent controllers for the eyes and the head, such that we don't need to even deal with gaze stabilization during head movements and VOR. This controller will do either the head or the eye. For a controller that does both, see Monkey2SaccadeController.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MonkeySaccadeController::MonkeySaccadeController ( OptionManager mgr,
const SaccadeBodyPart  bodypart 
)

Constructor.

Parameters are similar to the FrictionSaccadeController, plus

Parameters:
part As this controller may be used either for the eye or for the head (as part of bigger controllers that include both eye and head), this should be either SaccadeBodyPartEye or SaccadeBodyPartHead and will determine which model options we use for our internal parameters (eye or head)
