System for measuring movement response of small animals to changes in their orientation
Original language description
The article introduces a novel system for measuring locomotive response of small animals (specifically amphibians and reptiles) to change in their body orientation based on a camera system located on mechanical platform powered by a set of three actuators. The camera system consists of three cameras providing a record three anatomical angles of body segment movements in space. A gyro accelerometer system allowing for measuring angles of the platform orientation in space is also a part of the mechanicalplatform, together with a computer providing for a precise measuring of body segment angles in anatomical as well as the earth?s coordinate systems. We tested this novel method by measuring head rotation of a small reptile via monitoring reflective markers on the animal?s body. A part of the work?s results is thus a presentation of a method for monitoring animal?s head compensatory movements. The assumption for the future is expanding the use of the system for more complex 3D movements,
