Mechanically speaking, launching a projectile is one of the first things we figured out how to do. The sling and the atlatl*, the first two range extenders we figured out, are extensions of our basic throwing ability. They draw on the same proprioception and intuition as just throwing with an arm.
Cocking back an arm and throwing with the kind of precision even the clumsiest human who is still capable of throwing can achieve is out of reach even for chimps, bonobos, and gorillas. The reasons for this have a lot to do with anatomy, proprioception, and our bipedalism.
well, yeah, obviously you can achieve such a map through various channels it's just that vision+lidar+limb feedback+orientation in space is sufficient to navigate an arbitrary space, and so that's what robots use the equivalent senses in biological systems being vision, balance and proprioception
Oh yeah i have been considering making some linocut stamps to stamp on the shirt which will help. So far the stains are coming out, it’s just frustrating having zero proprioception.
Someday someone is going to study proprioception in trans women and they are going to learn something fascinating.

The way I tell is by using my proprioception to observe which feet they’re on. *uses proprioception to attempt to tap their temple* *misses*
