[0002] In brain science research, the study of the nervous system of awake, freely moving animals is crucial. By detecting changes in calcium signals during neuronal activity, researchers can better understand complex neural circuits. Existing methods such as micro-microscopes and fiber optic photometry calcium signal recording methods can achieve real-time monitoring of neuronal activity in brain regions. However, the neuronal activity recorded by these devices can only be associated with specific events, and cannot synchronously record the animal's activity trajectory and changes in individual movements before and after specific events in spatial and temporal dimensions. Especially in the field of addictive substance research, due to the need for intravenous administration, a flexible tube must be placed in the animal's jugular vein and connected to an external micropump so that rodents can receive a rewarding drug infusion through the vein after pressing a lever (or nasal contact administration).
[0003] However, the drug delivery hose and the data transmission line for collecting neuronal signals are connected to the rodent. As the rodent moves, they may become entangled with each other, thus interrupting the experiment.

[0036] Step S102: performing data comparison and analysis on the posture data and historical posture data to obtain posture change data, and determining the rotation angle and rotation direction of the stepping motor based on the posture change data, and generating an angle adjustment signal;
[0037] In one embodiment, the posture data includes X-axis data, Y-axis data, and Z-axis data of the target object.
[0038] By performing comparative analysis on posture data and historical posture data, we can know the posture change data of the target object.
