Environment
Shape arenas, cues, food, water, and nests. Every wall is both a place to navigate and a signal to the model.

A small atlas of a living model
FlowRat is an open simulation of navigation, memory, behaviour, and neural dynamics. This field guide is written in plain English for curious humans and future contributors.
Neural circuits
Place, grid, head-direction, velocity, and boundary populations share one live simulation and one honest visual vocabulary.
Observation
Inspect rates, trajectories, attractors, and behaviour while the rats move. Record the same state as CSV for later study.
Extend the experiment
Register a parameter with FlowRat.registerParameter({name, value, min, max}), listen for changes, and connect your own controls or analysis to the canvas.
