Touch Screen Operant Chamber

The Skinner box, also known as the Conditioned Behavioral Operant Chamber was created and designed by B.F. Skinner in the 1930s to study operant conditioning behavior. It is not only used to study animal behavior, but also widely used in the brain and behaviorScientific research, such as complex behavior training, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, autism, stimulation or damage to certain parts of the brain, the effect of some certain drugs on animal behavior, combined photogenetic, electrophysiology to study various affective neural circuits, and so on, almost all standard operational tasks (such as basic operant behavioral studies, psychotropic dependence tests, self-administration, etc.), thus to achieve efficient assessment of rodent cognitive ability.

Features

Features

•  Supports up to 32 channels of simultaneous testing.

•  Each chamber can be configured separately to improve the training efficiency.

•  Multiple stimulation modes: sound, light, electric, and gas stimulation.
