High-Precision, Three-Dimensional Tracking of Mouse Whisker Movements with Optical Motion Capture Technology

The mystacial vibrissae or whiskers in rodents are sensitive tactile hairs emerging from both sides of the face. Rats and mice actively move these whiskers during exploration. The neuronal mechanisms controlling whisker movements and the sensory representation of whisker tactile information are wide...
