Behavior / Swivel/tether for hands-off recording

« on: November 22, 2017, 10:14:05 AM »

Hello - I would like to know if people use a swivel or tether of some sort for imaging in freely-moving animals. We currently imaging in active rats, and I sit with them and ensure that the cable does not get tangled, wrapped around anything...etc. as they move through their environment. I am worried that this interferes with their naturalistic behavior and would like to use a tether of some sort which would allow me to be more distant.

Any suggestions?
