EthoVision 3.1 State parameters calculated in EthoVision 3.1 (for instance 'in proximity/not in proximity' or 'mobile/immobile') can be exported to The Observer and analyzed together with the data obtained with the latter software program. You benefit from the fast automated tracking of EthoVision 3.1 for parameters such as movement, proximity, and immobility plus gain the ability to manaully code detailed behaviors such as sniffing, biting, and mounting in The Observer!
UltraVox UltraVox is the professional product for the automatic detection of ultrasonic vocalizations, such as mouse pup calls in neurotoxicological studies or rat vocalizations in drug testing. It visualizes real-time filtering and continuously updates descriptive statistics to offer quick insight into the temporal structure of vocalizations. UltraVox makes the analysis of vocalizations accessible for every behavioral researcher.
MatMan A major function of MatMan is to calculate and test linear hierarchies. It gives various indices for dominance matrix linearity. Such matrices can be produced with The Observer, based on observed conflicts or other interactions, or recorded with pen and paper. MatMan can also be used to investigate the relationship between different types of interactions by calculating the correlation between matrices. It also enables you to compare lag sequential analysis results obtained with The Observer.
Mazes and open fields Mazes and open fields, available in different sizes that make them suitable for all kinds of rodents, are suited for most commmonly used behavioral tests. Our infrared-translucent mazes and open fields will enable automatic tracking in many situations in which tracking used to be very difficult or even impossible.
Event Logging Interface If you are using EthoVision or The Observer, you may wish to automatically record more information than you currently can. With the Event Logging Interface, you can replace yourself as the coder.
