The tower filming system is a combination of a camera and a controlled environment in which large numbers of small animals, such as zebrafish larvae or Drosophila , can be reliably tracked. Up to 96 animals can be tracked simultaneously, each in their own well of a well plate. The system allows for perfect tracking in both light and dark settings.

• Provides a robust and reliable view of large numbers of small animals.
• Fixed position of the well plate: no additional set-up time when a new batch of animals is introduced.
• Stable camera mount prevents the image to move.
• Fulfills the requirements for reliable tracking in both light and dark settings.
• Prevents shadowing on the sides of the wells that are off-centre.
