A Sensory Input is an input that provides environmental data to a sensing system through sensor devices for sensory processing.
- Context:
- It can (typically) carry Environmental Information through physical signals.
- It can (typically) activate Sensor Responses in sensing devices.
- It can (often) contain Signal Patterns and temporal sequences.
- ...
- It can range from being a Low-Dimensional Sensory Input to being a High-Dimensional Sensory Input, depending on its data dimensionality.
- It can range from being a Continuous Sensory Input to being a Discrete Sensory Input, depending on its signal type.
- It can range from being a Simple Sensory Input to being a Complex Sensory Input, depending on its signal complexity.

- Example(s):
- Physical Sensory Inputs, such as:
- Light Wave Input, triggering visual sensors.
- Sound Wave Input, activating acoustic sensors.
- Pressure Input, stimulating tactile sensors.
- Chemical Sensory Inputs, such as:
- Molecular Input, affecting chemical sensors.
- Concentration Input, triggering gas sensors.
- ...
- Physical Sensory Inputs, such as:
- Counter-Example(s):
- Control Signals, which direct system behavior without sensing.
- System Outputs, which result from rather than trigger sensing.
