| Abstract | The nervous system is the major controlling, regulatory, and communicating system in human body. One of the basic functions of the nervous system is the sensory, by which one monitors the external and internal environments. Sensory pathways to the cortex usually consist of three sensory neurons termed 1st order, 2nd order, and 3rd order neurons. In this paper, a standard biological inspired neuron was presented, which can be acted as the basis node of robot perceptual systems. The hardware and software has been designed and implemented for modeling, testing and employing sensor networks composing of many identical neuron nodes. Each node considers ease-of-use and power considerations. Some requirements, such as 'plug-and-play' capability, system integration and dynamic reconfiguration, were described, which is achieved through an 'transducer electronic data sheet' (TEDS) in our networked transducer neuron node. The TEDS contains fields that fully describe the type, operation, and attributes of one or more transducers and its data formats are defined. The paper also specifies a digital interface for connecting neuron to access the TEDS data sheets for reading sensor data and setting actuators. Each neuron can connect more than 8 channel analog signals by 12 bit resolution, two digital channel for SPI and I/sup 2/C interface sensor, and more than 20 channel I/O for switch signal, it can also offer two channel analog output for controlling purpose. A set of designed neurons can be connected together by different structure to form robot nervous system, not only for sensing, but for controlling too. Example application on robot perception system and future in progress work are discussed in the end. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
