Abstract:
:A method is described to record the X,Y-coordinates of two bright spots on a TV image. These spots are produced by a light-emitting diodes (LEDs) assembly, which must be affixed on the moving target. The system was developed to record head movements of free-moving animals, chronically implanted to bear a socket LEDs holder, but it can be easily adapted to other applications, such as the measure of limb displacements in Man. Recordings are allowed up to 25 frames per second with an approximate spatial resolution of 255(X) X 300(Y). The method, which is based on standard TV equipment, involves a hardware interface, feeding the X and Y counts into a laboratory minicomputer and data acquisition software. A sample record is shown and other applications are discussed in relation to current non-video and video actographic techniques.
