https://edspace.american.edu/openbehavior/project/mousemove/

Portal provides MouseMove software system used to analyze Open Field behavior of mice after experimental stroke to show reduced locomotor activity and to quantify laterality deficits. System is used in combination with open source program ImageJ and MTrack2 plugin to analyze pre recorded Open Field test video. System has two downloadable components, ImageJ macro and separate program with custom built MouseMove GUI. ImageJ is used to subtract background video from experiment and create image of animals total trajectory. MouseMove GUI then completes detailed analysis of movement patterns, measuring fractional time spent stationary, distance traveled, speed mean and various details of laterality.

https://edspace.american.edu/openbehavior/project/robotic-flower-system-bee-behavior/

Portal provides system of robotic artificial flowers to study bumble bee behavior. System is designed to capture data when animal is feeding by placement of IR beams that are broken when engaged on flowers feeding mechanism and sends data to control unit.Developed by University of Oulu in Finland scientists. System includes control unit, separate artificial flowers, and personal computer. Control unit is to handle electronics of flowers, collect data from them, and to send data to computer. Flowers contain infrared sensor, their associated electronics, and electromechanical device that offers small, precise amount of sugar solution from reservoir. Computer runs software that controls refilling rate and data collection via the control unit. Circuit diagrams, parts list, and control software and source code are available in paper supplemental information.
