Detection

To harness the radiation generated by activities within the universe chain, the protocol employs a series of observatory devices, each designed to detect and filter specific events:

  • Probes: These are the primary devices that monitor the universe chain’s activity. Probes scan the blockchain for radiation, capturing events like new blocks, reorgs, and log emits. Probes are designed to handle the sheer volume of radiation, filtering out noise and focusing on key data that contributes to object imaging.

  • Telescopes: Once the relevant signals are filtered, cameras translate these signals into visual representations. The cameras are responsible for capturing the "images" of objects—determining how activities in the universe chain manifest as changes in objects. This imaging process allows for the visualization and tracking of object evolution and interaction.

  • Satellites: After probes detect radiation, filters process the data, discarding irrelevant events and retaining only those that may carry signals. Filters can be fine-tuned based on the specific type of radiation they are meant to capture, ensuring precision in data collection.

These observatory devices work in tandem to ensure that the protocol remains attuned to the complex and dynamic environment of the universe chain.
