Save time and get fast, reliable results with EthoVision XT
EthoVision XT is your true research companion. It helps you through every step of your experiment – from trial list to results – giving you all the insights you need as well as full control over your data.
It is also smart – it has the technology to track accurately in challenging circumstances. For example, if a tracking error occurs, you can easily correct data by deleting and interpolating specific data points.
The built-in EthoVision XT wizard makes setting up experiments a breeze. There are video tutorials every step of the way, from automatic detection of the animal to the fully integrated and dynamic presentation of your results. Full data transparency helps you interpret your results, fine-tune parameters, and more. In addition, because data is only a collection of numbers until you make sense of it, EthoVision XT offers powerful tools for data selection, analysis, and visualization.

Dr. D. Wolmarans|North-West University, South Africa
“EthoVision XT has allowed our group to significantly cut down the time spent analyzing behavior.”
Dr. O. F. Gayol|Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain
“I think the support staff is exceptional. They are very available and knowledgeable and make the difference between a complex, expensive software program that sits on your shelf in a box, and one that is an integral part of your research methodology.”
Dr. A. Pos|York University, Toronto, Canada
“EthoVision allows us to quantify behavior, not just qualify behavior.”
Dr. Christina Semeniuk|Associate Professor at the University of Windsor, Canada
“Highly recommend EthoVision - while there are a lot of freeware versions of tracking software out there, they all take a very long time for data acquisition - EthoVision is much faster and therefore definitely worth the cost”
Dr. S. Johnson|University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand
“EthoVision has dramatically improved my ability to incorporate extensive behavioral testing with one group of animals. It reduces the time needed to record and analyze behaviors while allowing for much more extensive analysis of behavior.”
Dr. M. Hyer|Virginia Commonwealth University, USA
“EthoVision has revolutionized the way we design, capture and interpret behavioural data. It takes less time to analyse behavioural data and completely eliminates user bias.”
Dr. M. Krishna|Syngene International Ltd, India
