This sleep deprivation apparatus uses a cage model to provide a standard living environment that includes food and water support. It does not require the animal to be in a walking state unlike the walking sleep deprivation apparatus from MazeEngineers. It can scan the bottom of the cage with a deprivation rod with an adjustable cycle to achieve an experimental environment for animal deprivation.
There are three modalities for sleep deprivation equipment: Rotating drum(not available through MazeEngineers), Cage model, and Walking Platform. This Cage model is driven by a motor to rotate a bar that moves along the cage continuously; the experimental animals passively follow the bar which prevents sleep.
