barnes maze

The Barnes Labyrinth consists of a circular platform with many small holes penetrating the platform around the perimeter. A box was placed at the bottom of one of the holes as a shelter for the experimental animals; the bottoms of the other holes were empty, and the experimental animals could not enter them. The Barnes maze generally uses stimuli such as strong light, noise and wind as the motivation for experimental animals to enter the escape hole. Product Features: No need for food deprivation and foot shock, so less stress to animals. The experiment requires little physical strength of animals, which can minimize the impact of physical decline caused by age on the experimental results. The experiment takes less time, and the whole experiment can be completed within 7-17 days. It can prevent animals from completing experiments by smell.

Product Features: No need for food deprivation and foot shock, so less stress to animals. The experiment requires little physical strength of animals, which can minimize the impact of physical decline caused by age on the experimental results. The experiment takes less time, and the whole experiment can be completed within 7-17 days. Can prevent animals from relying on smell to complete experiments

1. Hardware parameters:

1. Rat maze specifications: diameter 122cm, height 90cm

2. Mice maze specifications: diameter 92cm, height 90cm

3. Number of rat holes: 18 holes with a diameter of 10cm

4. Number of mouse holes: 18 holes with a diameter of 5cm

5. Labyrinth material: medical PVC or acrylic

6. Rotation angle: 360 degrees can be rotated

7. Location of escape box: each hole has a fixed slot, which can be replaced

2. Camera parameters:

1. Camera: gun type

2. Color: color/black and white

3. Camera resolution: ≥640*480

4. Camera adapter power supply: DC 12V

5. Camera type: 2.8---12mm zoom

3. Software parameters:

1. One-click drawing area

The labmaze center fixed-point drawing method is convenient to draw the labyrinth area required for the experiment. After the experiment, it is found that a certain area is not drawn, and this area can be temporarily added without re-analyzing the video. The software can directly obtain the indicators of this area.

2. Intelligent AI algorithm

The software automatically recognizes the volume and shape of animals by learning and extracts them from complex backgrounds. It has strong anti-interference ability and filtering ability. Even if there are many ripples that interfere with the picture, it can accurately track animals.

Tracking method: The tip of the nose, the center, and the root of the tail track three points and analyze the data corresponding to the three points at the same time, etc.
3. Diversified experimental process design

The software is openly edited for conditions such as time, area, speed, hardware, steps, events, etc., which is convenient for editing the experimental process mentioned in any literature.

4. Human-computer interaction verification

The software automatically saves the experimental process video, and the experimental video and analysis indicators can be played back simultaneously with the same window, verifying the unity of software analysis and manual calculation, and ensuring the authenticity of the analysis results.

5. Rich statistical indicators

The software can analyze more than 200 indicators such as visit times, stay time, percentage, moving distance, speed, rotation between regions, trajectory diagrams, time series diagrams, heat map, and event relationships of each quadrant or area;

6. GLP management

The software has the function of rights management, the administrator assigns the experimental user account and manages the user rights; reviews the operation of the experimenter

7. Strong compatibility and scalability

Strong compatibility: It can be used as a platform with similar products of other brands at home and abroad. It is convenient to expand and upgrade the platform in the future, and the secondary expansion software will no longer cost;

8. The software is allowed to be installed on multiple computers, the software is allowed to work on laptop computers, supports online and offline video analysis, and facilitates statistics of data indicators;

9. Data indicators: observation time, caving times, caving time, incubation period time, number of errors, trajectory graph, etc.
