| Abstract: | An accurate and reliable, yet simple and inexpensive electronic tracking device delivers voltages that denote changing positions of moving objects. In combination with an analog-to-digital converter, a microcomputer, and specific software, this device enables the depiction and analysia of linear or linearly represented locomotion. The system is particularly useful for laboratory analysis of animal movements. An application in preference-avoidance testing is described. |
