Popis: We have improved on an algorithm to track a rat swimming in a Morris Water Maze. The system is automatically configured to any pool and relative suitable light conditions. It tracks the rat's position and pose 10 times per second. The output data is displayed in a bitmap and also in a text file. The system was tested with an X-Y plotter using a simulated rat swimming in the maze. Known signals were provided to the rat and compared to the position and pose information provided by tracking algorithm.
