Gerador de estímulos visuais naturalísticos para pesquisar o sistema visual de moscas / Naturalistic visual stimuli generator for research in the blowflys optical system

Esteves, Ingrid de Miranda 29 September 2010 (has links)
Este trabalho descreve o desenvolvimento e a validação de um gerador de estímulos visuais naturalísticos, GEN, utilizado em experimentos com o sistema visual de moscas. Tal gerador projeta a imagem em um anteparo que abrange todo o campo visual da mosca. Um espelho acoplado a um motor linear movimenta a imagem horizontalmente de acordo com velocidades predefinidas pelo experimentador. Ao contrário dos tradicionais geradores com monitores de raios catódicos - que apresentam imagens através de uma sequencia de quadros entre 60 e 200Hz - o GEN apresenta a imagem de forma contínua. Além de eliminar o problema das altas taxas de quadros por segundo exigidas nestes experimentos, o novo sistema também gera imagens com uma maior resolução, brilho e contraste. Durante a apresentação dos estímulos visuais foram registrados os potenciais de ação do neurônio H1 da mosca Chrysomya megacephala, localizado na placa lobular e responsável pela detecção de movimentos horizontais. Os resultados deste trabalho mostram como a resposta do neurônio estudado depende de parâmetros do estímulo tais como: velocidade, luminância, campo visual estimulado e frequência espacial da imagem utilizada. A influência destes parâmetros na resposta neural demonstram a importância de possuir geradores capazes de simular em laboratório estímulos que a mosca encontra em seu habitat natural. / This work presents the development and the validation of a naturalistic visual stimuli generator, NSG, to be used in neuroscience experiment with the flys visual system. To satisfy the requirement of naturalistic stimuli, the new generator projects a slide onto a screen covering the whole visual field of the fly. A mirror controlled by a linear electrical motor moves the image horizontally according to a predefined velocity profile. In addition, the NSG shows the image continuously as opposed to usual stimuli generators with cathode ray monitors having a frame rate between 60 and 200Hz. A further advantage of the NSG is its high luminance, brightness and contrast. During the stimulus presentations, the activity of the H1 neuron of the blowfly Chrysomya megacephala was recorded, this neuron is sensitive to horizontal image displacements. The results show how the response of the studied neuron depends on stimulus parameters such as speed, luminance, visual field stimulated and the spatial frequency of the image used. The influence of these parameters on neural response demonstrates the importance of generators that reproduces in laboratory the flys natural habitat.

Design and Implementation of a Traffic Model and a Stimuli Generator for OCN SoCBUS Architecture / Design och implementering av en trafikmodell och en stimuligenerator för ett nätverk på ett chip (SoCBUS)

Wallin, Joakim January 2004 (has links)
<p>The purpose of this report is to implement and evaluate parts of the simulation software used in the SoCBUS project. In order to complete and evaluate the entire software package, a traffic model and a stimuli generator must be implemented. They are implemented and evaluated together with the entire simulator software. The purpose of the Traffic model is to model communication traffic as good and descriptive as possible. The output of the Traffic model is called a test case, which works as input for the Stimuli generator. The Stimuli generator computes and creates an event list for the Simulator. This report will investigate and motivate the presented traffic model and stimuli generator in detail. The simulator software is then tested with two separate test cases in order to investigate if the simulator software works properly. The results are promising and the simulator software behaves as expected.</p>
