We have developed a Hublink-enabled running wheel for mice. Our wheel is self-contained and will run for two months on a single charge. Compatible with the hublink.cloud platform, our wheel will log wheel revolution-per-minute onto a micro-SD card and automatically sync with your Hublink account for visualization and data retrieval. Want to learn more? Let’s […]
The next time you’re walking by a fire hydrant, look at the stem nut on the top of it: it is pentagon-shaped. This means that your standard crescent or pipe wrench can’t grip it. While this does act as an anti-tampering feature, it also conveys that this is a special-purpose application. This mirrors poka-yoke—Toyota’s system […]
In 2020, I worked with an intern to characterize SD power characteristics (view the archive). As my colleagues and I embark on a mass deployment of new devices in 2025, it is time to revisit the perennial question: what SD card is best? Specifically, what SD card has the lowest current draw in an Arduino-based, […]
Learn how Hublink.cloud addresses challenges in wirelessly transferring SD card data from FED3 devices used in behavioral neuroscience experiments.
Here, we present a tube-based magnet float and enclosed magnetic sensor array to determine and record sub-milliliter liquid intake every 10s called “Tubetrode”.
We aimed to determine if a spray coating could mitigate leaking. Furthermore, if deployed as a submersible/vessel, could our parts withstand acute exposure to external pressure (e.g., up to 80 meters)?
We investigated how small vias can be made when using conductive epoxy to make 2-layer PCBs using in-house manufacturing techniques.
Recently, Richards Lab has been investigating cortical activity patterns but has been limited by their ability to perform long-duration anesthesia on dunnarts.
In animal models of limb disuse, grip strength (or force) is a measure used to characterize the time course and severity of muscle atrophy.
Accuracy and applicability of Seeed Studio 60GHz mmWave Sensor (Breathing and Heartbeat Module) based on the MR60BHA1 60GHz radar module
Can a simple wire antenna outperform a properly designed trace antenna?
