In contrast, RAMalgo provides exquisite control of stimulation with different modalities (heat, mechanical, and optogenetic) and response measurement with millisecond precision. The robot can be controlled remotely, via joystick, or it can run autonomously thanks to AI. In the autonomous configuration, a neural network recognizes the target paw, aims the robot, stimulates and measures the response, before proceeding to the next subject. All data are recorded to electronic files. Video of each trial is recorded as well, and can be analyzed using our cutting-edge self-supervised learning algorithm, which enables efficient quantification of non-reflexive behaviours.
