Looming Visual Stimuli Box

Essential for Vision and Behavioral Research

Evaluate rodent visual acuity and behavior with our reliable, easy-to-use apparatus. Perfect for neuroscience and vision studies.

Key Results Metrics

Measuring Vision and Behavioral Responses

The Looming Visual Stimuli Box provides essential metrics, such as freeze response duration, flight velocity, and proximity to shelter. These insights are critical for studying vision-dependent behaviors in rodents, supporting neuroscience research and treatments for visual impairments.

Clock-conductvision

Freeze Duration

Tracks the time rodents remain still, indicating fear response.

Numeric-conductvision

Flight Velocity

Measures speed during escape, reflecting vision-dependent behavior.

Proximity to Shelter

Analyzes distance from the shelter before and after stimulus exposure.

Electricity-conductvision

Latency to React

Time taken for rodents to respond to the looming stimulus.

Journey-conductvision

Total Path Length

Calculates the total distance traveled during the session.

Looming Visual Stimuli Box

An effective device for studying vision-based behavioral responses in rodents. Includes a customizable setup for projecting looming stimuli, tracking freeze and flight reactions, and analyzing visual neural pathways.
