CatWalk
CatWalk is a test apparatus and measurement tool in one. CatWalk consists of a glass plate along which a mouse or rat walks. Light enters the long edge of the glass plate and is completely internally reflected, except at those areas where the animal makes contact with the glass plate (typically the animal's paws). A video camera positioned underneath the glass plate captures the illuminated footprints and sends these to a computer running the CatWalk software. |

The CatWalk software records the position, timing, pressure, and dimensions of each footfall, and facilitates the classification of footfalls. On basis of these measurements, graphical output is generated and numerous endpoints are calculated. These endpoints can then be exported to spreadsheet programs for statistical analysis. |
