Animal Research Experiment Maze

A modular device that is both automated and versatile allows researchers to create a custom configuration that is optimally suited for the study of spatial learning and memory in rats or mice.input:
output:By simply rearranging the arms, the same modular device can be converted into automated radial, Y, T, and Delta mazes.



The surface texture is chosen to ensure the most comfortable environment for rodents and to achieve the best possible results with video tracking software (automated sliding doors, non-reflective, and high contrast). It is effortless to assemble, clean, and disassemble in order to conserve space when not in use.input:

Unobstructed animal tracking is achieved through the use of proprietary sliding doors that retract silently and rapidly, utilizing automated up and down movements that are optimal for video tracking.

Achieving optimal outcomes with any video-tracking software. Our mazes feature a non-reflective, anti-glare surface and high-contrast colors.

In order to optimize rodent comfort, the surface texture of the maze is chosen to be anti-slip and "warm," as opposed to a smooth or cold surface that rodents find uncomfortable.
