METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RECORDING AND EVALUATING MOTION BEHAVIOR OF EXPERIMENTAL ANIMAL

摘要

1. Process for the recording and/or evaluation of the stretching and moving behaviour of experimental animals, in particular mice, wherein by means of a radiation which is absorbed and/or reflected at least in part by the body of the animal, an image of the animal body is produced on a projection surface and a signal is generated photoelectrically and also recorded and processed further, which signal is proportional to the area taken up on the projection surface by the image of the body of the animal, characterised in that a large-area photoelement homogenously covering the image area, in particular a solar cell, is used as the projection surface.
