	argos::REGISTER_SENSOR (CFootBotLightRotZOnlySensor, "footbot_light", "rot_z_only", "Carlo Pinciroli [ilpincy@gmail.com]", "1.0", "The foot-bot light sensor (optimized for 2D).", "This sensor accesses a set of light sensors. The sensors all return a value\n" "between 0 and 1, where 0 means nothing within range and 1 means the perceived\n" "light saturates the sensor. Values between 0 and 1 depend on the distance of\n" "the perceived light. Each reading R is calculated with R=(I/x)^2, where x is the\n" "distance between a sensor and the light, and I is the reference intensity of the\n" "perceived light. The reference intensity corresponds to the minimum distance at\n" "which the light saturates a sensor. The reference intensity depends on the\n" "individual light, and it is set with the \"intensity\" attribute of the light\n" "entity. In case multiple lights are present in the environment, each sensor\n" "reading is calculated as the sum of the individual readings due to each light.\n" "In other words, light wave interference is not taken into account.
