Our understanding includes the concepts of "gain", "whole vs component", and "anisotropy." For clarity, we will outline this understanding here. +- **Sensitivity**: The ratio of the output speed to the input speed. The "sensitivity" parameter in the program is a multiplier used on the post-calculation output vector. +- **(Output) Velocity**: The speed of the final output vector. The output vs input velocity curve is perhaps the most important relationship in a particular setup because it directly describes the output for any given input. +- **Gain**: The slope of the output vs input velocity curve. +- **Acceleration**: Acceleration is characteristic of a velocity curve. A velocity curve has "acceleration" if at any point the curve is nonlinear. A nonlinear curve results from a non-constant gain and results in a non-constant sensitivity. + +### Example |
