SensiTrak: automated, quantitative measures of somatosensory discrimination in rodents


SensiTrak is an automated, high-throughput behavioral system designed to finely measure somatosensory function in rodent models. Currently in Phase II development, SensiTrak will provide an affordable, off-the-shelf solution for testing key sensory functions. Customization is supported through interchangeable task modules and open-source behavioral control software. SensiTrak is designed to accommodate a broad range of somatosensory behavioral tasks, with capability specifically built in to support an expanding library of electromechanical task modules.

We expect to have SensiTrak ready for wider distribution in early 2024, but if you’d like to keep up with our progress in the meantime, sign up for our SensiTrak Updates mailing list. If there’s a particular somatosensory test that you’d like to see developed for SensiTrak, contact us.


Development of the SensiTrak System is supported by the fast-track Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) grant R42NS120748 from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS).
