Ocular Videography System
First Claim
1. Ocular Videography System (100) for tracking eye movements of an animal, in particular rats, comprisinga camera system (1) suitable for being positioned on a head of an animal to track eye movements of at least one eye of the animal,a head mount (2) on which the camera system (1) is fixed or fixable, characterized by,at least one image sensor (3) as well as at least one decoder (4), for decoding a signal detected by the image sensor (3), each being comprised by the camera system (1), whereinthe camera system (1), and in particular a camera (11) of the camera system (1), is designed in such a way that it detects movements of the eye and/or a movement of a head of the animal in a vertical and/or horizontal and/or a torsional direction to an optical axis (5) of the camera system (1) and/or of the optical axis of the animal'"'"'s eye without interfering with the animal'"'"'s natural motion dynamics.
