我们开发了一个基于光遗传学技术的大鼠-机器人系统，用于精确的冻结行为。通过对大鼠脑dlPAG的光遗传学调控构建大鼠机器人。我们对老鼠机器人进行了跟踪导航，发现它们能够在给定的位置以高时空精度表现出精确的冻结。比较了不同类型的光刺激，并研究了它们对大鼠机器人的影响。此外，我们还记录了光学刺激过程中真实的神经电活动。该系统可用于探索冻结行为的机制，并建立一个更完整的基于光调制的大鼠-机器人导航系统。
We developed a rat-robot system based on optogenetic techniques for the precise freezing behavior. Rat-robots were built up by optogenetic modulation at the dlPAG of rat brains. We conducted track navigation for the rat-robots and found they were able to exhibit precise freezing at given positions with high spatiotemporal accuracy. Different types of optical stimulation were compared and their influence on the rat-robots was investigated. Furthermore we recorded the neural electrical activity in real time during the optical stimulation. The system could be used to explore the mechanism of freezing behaviors and to build up a more integrated rat-robot navigation system based on optical modulations.
