2. Lateral line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_line

   The lateral line, also called the lateral line organ (LLO), is a system of sensory organs found in fish, used to detect movement, vibration, and pressure gradients in the surrounding water. The sensory ability is achieved via modified epithelial cells , known as hair cells , which respond to displacement caused by motion and transduce these ...

4. Ampullae of Lorenzini - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampullae_of_Lorenzini

   Ampullae of Lorenzini are physically associated with and evolved from the mechanosensory lateral line organs of early vertebrates.Passive electroreception using ampullae is an ancestral trait in the vertebrates, meaning that it was present in their last common ancestor. [7]

5. Shark - Wikipedia

   The lateral line shows a similar arrangement, and is open to the environment via a series of openings called lateral line pores. This is a reminder of the common origin of these two vibration- and sound-detecting organs that are grouped together as the acoustico-lateralis system.

6. Artificial lateral line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_lateral_line

   An artificial lateral line is an artificial biomimetic array of distinct mechanosensory transducers that, similarly, permits the formation of a spatial-temporal image of the sources in immediate vicinity based on hydrodynamic signatures; the purpose is to assist in obstacle avoidance and object tracking.

7. Fish locomotion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_locomotion

   A lateral line system allows it to detect vibrations and pressure changes in water, helping the fish to respond appropriately to external events. [3] Well developed fins are used for maintaining balance, braking and changing direction. The pectoral fins act as pivots around which the fish can turn rapidly and steer itself.
