JetBall TFT

from Phenosys

Worldwide unique Virtual Reality product with a TFT surround monitor system and a spherical treadmill. Robust and easy to use. Various add-ons are available.

JetBall Virtual Reality System for mice with TFT screens can be used with mice to investigate brain functions during decision making. This is a worldwide unique product with a TFT surround monitor system and a spherical treadmill with optional operant devices. The JetBall, an air cushioned spherical treadmill allows a restrained animal to navigate in a virtual world. Brain function can be examined with electrophysiological, imaging and optogenetic methods while the animal performs behavioural tasks employing navigation, cognition, learning, or memory.

Features:

  • TFT surround monitor system with 270°
  • JetBall air-cushion supported spherical treadmill
  • Large space for external setups, e.g. multi-photon microscopes or e-phys
  • High image contrast and luminance
  • Predefined experiments or create your own ones with our software
  • Data transfer system to combine JetBall data with external data

Package contains,

TFT Monitor Surround System 270°, Spherical Treadmill (Ball Holder, two balls), Dual XY-Motion Sensor, movable rack, computer (pre-installed: PhenoSoft Control, PhenoSoft Schedule, PhenoSoft VR, Virtual Corridor 2 m, control monitor, keyboard, computer mouse, power supply unit, pressure regulator system (compressor is not included).
