Flow-sensory systems are widespread in the animal kingdom. Some species, such as fish, primarily perceive their environment through the motion of the surrounding fluid. A theory for the reconstruction of the environment from the measured tangential velocities on the surface of a moving body is developed. Furthermore, the design and development of an artificial flow-sensory system is described. A model for the dynamics of an autonomous underwater vehicle (Snookie), that is capable of utilizing a flow-sensory system, is established.
