Labeo Technologies - Spherical Treadmill for Mice

SHARE
The Spherical Treadmill for Mice is an advanced tool designed to facilitate controlled locomotion studies in animal research, particularly focusing on behavioral and neuroscience experiments. It incorporates a lightweight spherical ball supported by air, allowing test subjects to move freely while capturing accurate real-time data. The treadmill features an optional unidirectional running control through an integrated brake system to precisely guide the mouse's movement during experiments. This device provides an analog output for continuous speed measurement, easily integrating with data acquisition systems. Additionally, it features adjustable fan power for optimal ball support and includes a USB interface, ensuring smooth connection to computers and efficient data communication. The treadmill can be effectively incorporated into virtual reality environments, communicating with game engines like Unreal Engine or Unity to translate physical movements into virtual actions, thereby enabling comprehensive spatial and sensory-motor coordination studies.

The Spherical Treadmill for Mice is an advanced system designed for controlled locomotion studies in animal research. It features a lightweight, air-supported spherical ball that allows subjects to move freely while enabling accurate real-time data capture. A key aspect of the treadmill is its optional unidirectional running control, achieved through a built-in brake system that limits the ball’s movement to a single direction, ensuring precise control during experiments. The device also offers an analog output for speed measurement, providing continuous real-time speed data for seamless integration with data acquisition systems. Additionally, the treadmill includes fan power control, allowing researchers to adjust airflow for optimal ball support and smooth operation. A USB interface is included for easy connection to computers, facilitating quick data transfer and system control, therefore making this treadmill a versatile and precise tool for behavioral and neuroscience research.
