    99However, this should not be thought of as returning a picture from the point of view of the bot for the following reasons.
    1010 * [[rb|rb]] returns a number of samples generated by accumulating sample_deltas. Increasing YAW makes the bot turn left, so for positive sample_delta_yaw, subsequent samples are more to the left. This is not the standard image coordinate system where increasing samples in the X direction are to the right. In other words, the "image" would be flipped horizontally from what the bot would actually "see".
    11  * [[rb|rb]] generates the image by a process that is suggestive of a fisheye lens, not a linear projection. For example, it is possible to have a raster that contains the results of rays looking directly ahead and behind, an impossible perspective for linear projections. Wall seams will appear curved, etc.
