  1. Anyone familiar with the idea that the #DorsalStream is #DirectPerception and the #VentralStream is #Constructivist ? Just came across a paper on it from 2002, and want to make sure it's not considered totally debunked before I read it. This is an area I've been trying to better understand lately

  2. #introduction post! My name is Sonia Roberts (she/her) and I'm a postdoc at Northeastern developing #knit sensors for #soft, fully knitted #robots. My PhD work was on #legged robots running around in the desert (ever gone for a beach run?). I use my robots to test ideas about #affordances and #DirectPerception. I have also done some #SciencePolicy and #TechnologyPolicy #policy work around algorithmic transparency and regulating the use of mobile sentries by law enforcement.
