Echolocating bats use a nearly time-optimal strategy to intercept prey.

TL;DR: This paper used high speed stereo infra-red videography to study the three dimensional flight paths of the big brown bat, Eptesicus fuscus, as it chased erratically moving insects in a dark laboratory flight room and quantified the bat's complex pursuit trajectories using a simple delay differential equation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The sonar beam pattern of a flying bat as it tracks tethered insects

TL;DR: Measurements of the sonar beam pattern of flying echolocating bats, Eptesicus fuscus, performing various insect capture tasks in a large laboratory flight room suggest that the axis of the bat father beam is a good index of selective tracking of targets, and in this respect is analogous to gaze in predominantly visual animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fast and accurate genomic analyses using genome graphs.

TL;DR: The Graph Genome Pipeline as discussed by the authors is a graph reference genome implementation that enables read alignment across 2,800 diploid genomes encompassing 12.6 million SNPs and 4.0 million insertions and deletions (indels).
Journal ArticleDOI

Acoustic scanning of natural scenes by echolocation in the big brown bat, Eptesicus fuscus.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the directional aim and duration of the big brown bat Eptesicus fuscus sonar beam as it performed obstacle avoidance and insect capture, showing that the bat first inspected the hole and then shifted its gaze to the more distant insect, before flying through the net opening.
Journal ArticleDOI

Steering by Hearing: A Bat’s Acoustic Gaze Is Linked to Its Flight Motor Output by a Delayed, Adaptive Linear Law

TL;DR: It is suggested that this adjustable linkage between acoustic gaze and motor output in a flying echolocating bat simplifies the transformation of auditory information to flight motor commands.
