What is the Visual Water Maze?
The Visual Water Maze targets zebrafish cognition through customizable visual stimuli and escape-platform tasks. A trapezoidal tank design with a narrow entry channel forces subjects to discriminate between visual patterns to locate a hidden submerged platform.
ConductVision automates tracking and integrates with computer-controlled stimulus displays. Low-frequency sine-wave gratings, high-contrast geometric shapes, and dynamic motion patterns serve as discriminanda for pharmacological screening and developmental neurotoxicology.
