Your reference is very interesting for me because in computer vision we try to locate local features and try to match these local features, so that 3D correspondence can be extracted from multiple images which called structure from motion (SfM). Now I know, humans (and animals) also do the same thing!

Maybe it is not all related with sound but vision! it must be related with inputs to brain but it cant be only sound.

If you ever work with computer vision, rotating an image a little, lets say tilt, can vastly increase or decrease your algorithm's performance.

For example: early face detection algorithms were looking for T zone in your face from eyebrows to nose. (cheeckbones are generally brighter areas) However, those old algorithms were very bad at if the image is 180 degree rotated (T zone is not T anymore). Dont have to be 180 45 degree is enough for most face detection algorithms.

In neural nets, artificial intelligence practices like augmenting data, rotate the image a little and give the same image as an input data namely Augmenting data improves algorithm performance. In my opinion the dogs multiply the input by rotating or tilting their head so that autmatically augmenting data!!! So that they can detect better whatever they were looking before.

Computer scientist keep inspiring from nature but maybe its time to explain some phenomena with computer science methods. Researcher force themselves to find a new thing in computer area, maybe they go beyond nature sometimes unintentionally.

I am not a native english speaker but transkript is not that good. I can change the script later thats not a big NO for me.

I have tried the free public cast version. It works well. Now i want to delete that demo try cast. Delete buttons not responding.

Developer Console Output is below: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error) production.min.js:1 Uncaught (in promise) CloudError: Endpoint (`deleteHighlight`) responded with an error (or the request failed). at Object.exec (https://app.paircast.io/min/production.min.js:1:1581269) at https://app.paircast.io/min/production.min.js:1:1580713 at new Promise (<anonymous>) at Object.toPromise (https://app.paircast.io/min/production.min.js:1:1580681) at Object.then (https://app.paircast.io/min/production.min.js:1:1580465)

try to build your own and i mean your own even your own flight controller from scratch / use Arduino for flight control / use ecalc.ch site for your combination / hobbyking may have everything you want but they suck at shipment / try something different if you want it to be named hacker's drone ;)
