Extended Data Fig. 9: The impact of the morphological realism on estimates of leg–leg and leg-antenna contact during grooming.
From: NeuroMechFly, a neuromechanical model of adult Drosophila melanogaster

Collision diagrams from kinematic replay of foreleg–antennal grooming when using either (A) NeuroMechFly’s morphologically detailed legs and antennae, or after replacing its (B) forelegs, or (C) forelegs and antennae with simple cylinders, as in a conventional stick skeletal model.
