PhenoTyper provides a consistent arena for your rodents, while EthoVision XT automates data collection and hardware control. Set up your experiment once and let the system do the rest.
PhenoTyper comes in different sizes and configurations to suit your research needs. Whether you work with mice or rats, there is a PhenoTyper that fits your protocol. Recommended computer specifications: Dispense food pellets on demand or on a schedule, enabling operant conditioning and feeding behavior studies. Accurately measure licking behavior and fluid intake with the Lick o Meter, integrated with EthoVision XT. Monitor food intake patterns in mice with high precision, tracking feeding bouts and total consumption. Provide a safe hiding spot for your animals, enabling natural shelter-seeking behavior and anxiety-related paradigms. A running wheel designed specifically for mice in PhenoTyper, allowing you to measure voluntary physical activity. A larger running wheel for rats, enabling measurement of voluntary running behavior and circadian activity patterns. CognitionWall, developed by Sylics, is an automated cognitive testing system that fits inside PhenoTyper. It allows you to run discrimination learning tasks in the home cage, without the need for food or water deprivation. Data analysis is supported by AHCODA, providing standardized and automated analysis of home cage behavior and cognitive performance. Swap cameras easily to match your experimental needs, from standard video tracking to high-resolution imaging. The modular top unit allows you to add or remove components like LED lights, speakers, and optogenetic modules. Our support team is available to help you with setup, troubleshooting, and optimizing your PhenoTyper experiments. PhenoTyper is designed to grow with your research. You can add different wall configurations, accessories, and modules to customize your setup for specific experimental paradigms. Watch the video to see how easy it is to configure and expand your PhenoTyper system. EthoVision XT is the software that powers PhenoTyper. It handles video tracking, hardware control, and data analysis — all from a single interface. Scale your setup from a single cage to a full rack of PhenoTypers, all controlled by one EthoVision XT system. Every PhenoTyper provides the same standardized environment, ensuring consistent and reproducible results across experiments. Choose from different wall configurations, add-ons, and accessories to tailor PhenoTyper to your specific research needs. EthoVision XT automatically collects and organizes your behavioral data, ready for analysis and export. Interested in PhenoTyper?
