FreeWalkScan
FreeWalkScan is our latest addition to our NeuroDegenScan Suite of Gait Analysis products. It integrates Gait Analysis and Bottom‐View Behavior Analysis. It allows highly sensitive, noninvasive detection and evaluation of many pathophysiological conditions, such as those occurring in Spinal Cord Injury, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, ALS, arthritis, pain, neuromuscular and skeletal muscle diseases
FreeWalkScan system takes (optional high‐speed) video of animal (mouse or rat) walking on a clear bottom plate either in the dark or using normal light conditions. The video of the ventral view (underside view) of the animal is obtained using camera mounted directly under the plate. The video captures animal movements on the plate, as well as the foot/paw prints of the animal. Information of animal movements and foot/paw print are integrated seamlessly, which yield rich information useful for pathophysiological studies.
