允许多个电极的独立定位的当前商业电极微驱动器是昂贵的。由个别实验室开发的定制设计解决方案需要由在设备齐全的机械车间工作的经验丰富的机械师制造,因此难以推广广泛使用。在这里,我们提出了一种易于组装的模块化微驱动系统,用于急性灵长类动物神经生理学(PriED),该系统利用快速原型(3D打印)和现成的部件。3D打印部件的使用大大降低了设备的成本,使其可以在实验室中使用,而无需复杂的机械车间。将设计从电子文件直接传输到物理部件也为研究人员提供了根据特定记录需求轻松修改和实施定制解决方案的机会。我们还展示了一个新的模型,为科学界的数据共享:一个公开的驱动器设计的存储库。研究人员可以从存储库中下载驱动器部件设计,打印,组装,然后使用驱动器。重要的是,用户可以上传修改后的设计,并添加注释,使其他人可以轻松使用。
Current, commercial, electrode micro-drives that allow independent positioning of multiple electrodes are expensive. Custom designed solutions developed by individual laboratories require fabrication by experienced machinists working in well equipped machine shops and are therefore difficult to disseminate into widespread use. Here, we present an easy to assemble modular micro-drive system for acute primate neurophysiology (PriED) that utilizes rapid prototyping (3-d printing) and readily available off the shelf-parts. The use of 3-d printed parts drastically reduces the cost of the device, making it available to labs without the resources of sophisticated machine shops. The direct transfer of designs from electronic files to physical parts also gives researchers opportunities to easily modify and implement custom solutions to specific recording needs. We also demonstrate a novel model of data sharing for the scientific community: a publicly available repository of drive designs. Researchers can download the drive part designs from the repository, print, assemble and then use the drives. Importantly, users can upload their modified designs with annotations making them easily available for others to use.
