Abstract :
In this live demonstration, we present a smart homecage system, called the Enercage-HC, with closed-loop wireless power transmission, wireless communication, and automated tracking and behavior recognition capabilities. Wireless power is delivered in near-field at 13.56 MHz in the FCC-approved ISM-band through an array of coils designed to provide the entire homecage with homogeneous magnetic field. Bidirectional data transmission is accomplished at 2.4 GHz via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for communication with sensors and stimulators attached to or implanted in the animal body. A dual-mode 2D/3D imaging system based on Microsoft Kinect® is used for animal subject tracking and behavioral analysis.
