## Notice

The University of Sheffield with funding from the EPSRC requires a motion analyses laboratory to perform state of the art research into mouse gait. The equipment here requested will be the core of a motion analyses laboratory for mice. The final system should be integrated with cameras for motion capture, force plate for ground force analyses and a pressure mattress to measure the pressure that the animal induces to the ground. The system should also include the hardware and software to analyse the movement of the animal and integrate the synchronised outputs from the load and pressure measurements. This is an Non-EU open exercise.
