Rat dual visual cue training and detection experimental system

Abstract

The invention discloses a rat double visual cue training and detection experimental system. The stepping motors in (1) in the motor drive unit are respectively connected to the stepping motor drivers in sequence, and the wiring ports of the stepping motor drivers are respectively connected to the stepping motors in sequence. The positive and negative ends of the phase A winding of the stepper motor driver are respectively connected to the positive and negative ends of the stepper motor, and the rotating shaft of the stepping motor is respectively inserted into the rotating disk through the sleeve lock, and the center of the front end of the rotating disk is respectively connected to the metal circle. The rotating shaft of the stepping motor passes through the metal disc respectively, the rotating disc is fixed with the sleeve lock, the stepping motor driver is respectively connected to the constant voltage power supply, the interface of the stepping motor driver is connected with the microprocessor of the single chip microcomputer, and the stepping motor driver The interface is connected with the microcontroller of the single-chip microcomputer, and the interface of the stepper motor driver is connected with the positive and negative poles of the external constant voltage power supply. The operation is simple and automatic, the detection is stable, the data is accurate, and it is easy to clean and troubleshoot.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of animal behavior, and more specifically relates to a system for training rats to learn and remember by using graphic and color visual clues. It is suitable for visual training and testing of the learning ability of rodents as models in biophysics, animal behavior, and biomedicine. Background technique [0002] So far, a wealth of research results have been achieved in the neurobiology experiments of animal vision at home and abroad, but the research on the dual visual cues of organisms in the scientific community is limited to the classic model organism-Drosophila. At present, there are no research results on rodents, especially rats, in the face of dual visual cues. [0003] After retrieval, the current research on the double visual cues of fruit flies is the "Drosophila Flight Simulator System" produced by the Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Max Planck Society of Germany. The core de...

Problems solved by technology

[0010] The disadvantage of the above device is that it cannot be applied to rodents, because the rodents are fixed to detect the torque of their movement, and the animals will move around due to discomfort, which will seriously affect the test results. For rodents, it should be Detect its freely active behavior rather than passive behavior

After searching, no dual visual cue learning system or device purely for rats or other rodents has been disclosed or used
