It is possible to process in real time or pre-recorded video files. The multiple-factor algorithm of processing of images allows to provide high precision of tracking and quality of results of the analysis.

Main features:

  • Registration of a rodent, including points of the head and the basis of a tail
  • Rodent's movement parameters registration :
    • Average speed
    • The periods of an activity and the state of "fading"
    • Passed distance
    • Lookings out
    • Racks
    • Grooming
    • The detailed statistical analysis in the expert mode
  • A possibility of allocation of any quantity of inspection zones with the calculation of statistics on each zone and also registration of lookings out and transitions between zones
  • The ability to specify the initial parameters of a rodent (color, size) to ensure more precise processing
  • A possibility of processing of experiments in water labyrinths (the head and a tail are also detected)
