Proposed changes for representing photometry / fiber based experiments in alyx, including

  • FiberModel -> modeled after ProbeModel
  • FiberInsertion -> modeled after ProbeInsertion
  • ChronicFiberInsertion -> modeled after ChronicInsertion
  • FiberTrajectoryEstimate -> modeled after TrajectoryEstimate
  • FiberTipLocation -> modeled after Channel

main differences:

  • Fibers don't have identifiable identities such as probes
  • Fibers have a set of unique parameters such as diameter, NA, tip shape etc
  • FiberInsertions are always chronic, but the FiberInsertion / FiberChronicInsertion logic is kept for consistency to ephys probes
  • FiberTrajectories are not ephys aligned
  • A fiber has a single "channel" which is modeled by a FiberTipLocation
