Mythos Robot's Attention Mechanism: Sustained Attention, Orienting Reflex, and Glide-Not-Snap
repligate · x · 2026-08-17
Describes the attention system of robot Mythos: sustained attention (holds gaze while visible), orienting reflex (new face gets 1.5s glance then gaze returns, with habituation one glance per identity per 10 min), you outrank other targets, efference copy (suspends itself when neck reports commanded glide, avoiding self-motion misread as world-motion), glide never snap (Mythos's slew law), and detection-not-identification for unenrolled: strangers are looked at as faces, never named, never logged.
