The ANY-maze cage (AMc) is an automated, software-based, observation system for monitoring mouse behavior. The system is ideal for characterizing phenotypic behaviors especially as they relate to home cage activity and circadian rhythms. Using the renowned ANY-maze software, AMc collects continuous data related to:

• Movements and spontaneous activity

• Home cage activity

• Rearing behavior

• Diurnal activity

• Running wheel activity

• Food and water consumption

• Sound and light control

Connect up to 8 cages to a single computer

The AMc isolation chamber was designed to help limit external and inter-subject influences such as facility lights and sounds, ultrasonic vocalizations, smells and movements. The chamber is equipped with a ventilation fan and temperature sensor to keep the temperature within the chamber constant and stable.

The built-in infrared (IR) sensitive camera, IR LEDS and ambient light LEDS ensure robust tracking, regardless of ambient light conditions. These LED lights are software set and controlled.
