Emergent grids

Grid cells which constitute part of the localization system of the GROK2 robot are formed from a pair of theta waves (3-6Hz), whose interference produces a moiré grid. Grid spacing is controlled by small changes in theta wave frequency and angular offset. The grid dynamically rescales as the robot's speed is altered, due to variations in one of the theta field's frequency.
