This was a super fun collaboration! To test whether their rats could consciously detect red lights in the far red band, the Spencer Lab asked us to help them create a Go/NoGo nosepoke task in which rats would be rewarded for reacting to a quick flash of...lasers! Diffused, scattered lasers, that is.

Don't think we've forgotten about you, too, Bug Nerds! We've had a lot of you asking for much smaller spherical treadmills, and we're going to have something to show you very soon!

Just wrapped up new updates for our spherical treadmill-walking recording software including real-time displays of the 3D ball rotation and the animal's recent path and orientation. Think your mouse might be doing the Electric Slide while you're not looking?
