Problems solved by technology

Among them, food-based, juice-based and virtual electrical stimulation have their own disadvantages: food rewards cannot be carried out for a long time, and it is not easy to establish an automated training system; juice rewards need to change the type of juice frequently, because animals are prone to a certain kind of juice. Produces a sense of boredom, and of

Embodiment Construction

[0040] Such as figure 1 As shown, the training device for animal behavior learning of the present invention includes: an animal seat 1 , a water supply control system 2 , a PC 3 , a video camera 4 and a microcontroller 5 .

[0041] The animal seat 1 can fix the animal's neck in the round hole of the seat 1, and the other body parts of the animal are not fixed and are in a state of free movement. The animal seat 1 can be made of plexiglass material. A rocker 11 is fixed in the middle of the animal seat 1, and the potentiometer 15 of the rocker 11 is electrically connected to the microcontroller 5. The rocker 11 is used to provide the animal with a certain behavior in a two-dimensional plane. A water nozzle 12 is fixed on the animal seat 1, and the water nozzle 12 is connected with a solenoid valve 21 of the water supply control system through a conduit. After the animal completes the correct action, the solenoid valve 21 controls the water storage bottle 22 to reward the anim...
