How many components are there?
8
What is on the outside?
Body boundary
What is on the inside?
Central mechanism
What is input data?
Information from the environment
What are receptor systems?
Using senses to receive detailed info
What are Perceptual mechanisms?
The interpretation of info. Uses detailed data from senses
What are translator mechanisms?
Brain translates information from brain (memory) to effector mechanisms
What are the effector mechanisms?
Creates a motor programme which is moved to the nervous system
What is the muscular system?
Receives info from effector mechanisms and moves accordingly
What is output data?
Actual movement (catch/move/swing)
What is feedback data?
Kinaesthesis.
