You should watch my three dogs hunt. If all you've ever seen is a single
dog hunt then you know nothing of how dogs actually hunt. They're pack
animals, a single dog can't survive in the wild more than a few weeks. Yet
three sub-200lb dogs can take a 1,000+ lb Elk down.

There's the fundamental difference there is -no- reason to have
directional bump sensors. If you are moving along a path and a bump sensor was
hit that is all you need to know to change your path. You don't need to
know in which direction. An Ameoba would be a good example.

Bumps in the forward direction need to trigger 'flight' as well, otherwise
you're stuck. Rather contrary to the purpose of the design.

I disagree big deal. What is telling is your emotional response to it by
making the discussion personal (and I think unprofessional) by making it a
ad hominim issue.

I have redefined zero terms.
Put up or shut up.
If anyone is a contrarian it is you, your action of taking a technical
discussion into a personal one is primary evidence to that end.
Have a nice day.
