#### **Egocentric encodings**
Most `RatInABox` cell classes are allocentric (e.g. `PlaceCells`, `GridCells` etc. do not depend on the agents point of view) not egocentric. `BoundaryVectorCells` (BVCs) and `ObjectVectorCells` (OVCs) can be either. `FieldOfViewNeurons` exploit this by arranging sets of egocentric BVC or OVCs to tile to agents local field of view creating a comprehensive egocentric encoding of what boundaries or objects the agent can 'see' from it's current point of view. A custom plotting function displays the tiling and the firing rates as shown below. With an adequately defined field of view these can make, for example, "whisker cells".
