Rat operant conditioning system Gemini

for miceactive avoidancepassive avoidance

The GEMINI active and passive avoidance system is uniquely designed to ensure accuracy, reliability and ease of use in your learning and memory studies. The system will connect to your computer or a fully configured computer from SDI through a standard USB connection, requiring no special training or technical expertise. Once setup is complete, run a wide range of avoidance tests with GEMINI’s flexible hardware and software features, including setting up your entire active and passive avoidance study in advance, saving all data in a single file, and the ability to run stations independently which allows for continuous testing. Configure up to 8 independent avoidance chambers for rapid testing of subjects Gate opens in 500 milliseconds Cues include non-heating LED house lights, laboratory standard cue lights, user selectable auditory stimuli and quiet auto door. Two unconditioned stimulus available, shock or air puff Run the entire system from your laptop or PC using a standard USB port Deploy continuous testing with independent station starts Switch between rats and mice in under 5 minutes using interchangeable grid floors SDI’s GEMINI active and passive avoidance system was designed specifically to test active avoidance and passive avoidance in rats and mice. Unlike many others, GEMINI’s hardware and software have been developed for the sole purpose of your avoidance study. GEMINI’s unique design allows you to run up to 8 independently operated stations directly from your laptop using a standard USB. In addition, by allowing you to define a complete study in advance, GEMINI eliminates run time data entry that could affect the accuracy of your results.
