N-FORM® RECORDS ACTIVE VISION IN FREELY MOVING MARMOSETS
N-Form® 3D microelectrode arrays enable new system for freely behaving research of active vision in marmosets:
“As most data have been limited to chaired and typically head-restrained animals, the synergistic interactions of different motor actions/plans inherent to active sensing e.g. eyes, head, posture, movement, etc. - on visual perception are largely unknown. To address this considerable gap in knowledge, we developed an innovative wireless head-mounted eye tracking system called called CEREBRO for small mammals, such as marmoset monkeys.”
“We tested the validity and sufficiency of the system to this end by performing experiments with CEREBRO while activity of single neurons was recorded with chronically implanted multi-electrode arrays (N-form, Modular Bionics) in the visual cortex (V1/V2) of the marmosets.“
