Master projects/internships - Leuven | More than two weeks ago
Mice are utilized in medical trials, often small electronics are attach to the animals. This electronics to interact with data acquisition boards uses cables (coax or twisted pairs). However, the movement of the cable can lead to communication issues. Additionally, the weight and stiffness of the cable can induce stress in the animal.
The objective of this project is to develop baes on a miniature robot a mimic of a mouse's behavior in a standard test environment. This robot will be employed to assess data transmission quality under realistic conditions and evaluate the impact of cable-induced stress on the animal.
