(The "stimuli" were photographs of forward-facing faces from a research database.
Perhaps it's the fact that you are constantly bombarded by new stimuli and inputs as you move about, which helps derail linear thinking and encourages a more associative, unfocused thought process.
" In a new study, Boisgontier and his team tried to find out just how deeply rooted laziness is in our brains, by measuring our cognitive responses to different stimuli representing physical activity and sedentary behaviour.
4D 4D printing is conventional 3D printing combined with the additional element of time as the fourth dimension, where the printed objects can re-shape or self-assemble themselves over time with external stimuli, such as mechanical force, temperature, or a magnetic field.
The first is one the considerable lowering of your skin's temperature, which being one of the "most profound stimuli the body can encounter" is a potentially a big strain on your body's resources.

Being efficient, the programmers simply re-used some code originally used to model infantry detachment reactions under the same stimuli, changed the mapped icon from a soldier to a kangaroo, and increased the figures' speed of movement.
" "Well, it means that instead of having a completely instinctive reaction where they always make the same call in response to the same stimuli -- a reflex, basically -- that the whales are capable of changing what they're calling and how they're communicating.
