Developing Automated Tracking systems for Tiny Animals

Physical Designs

this includes ant farms and rigs for holding sensors for the ants

Ant Farms

Editable Fusion files available here

Design standards for ant farms based off several designs on Thingiverse such as
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1388709

and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4188178

These parts are semi-compatiable together. These new ones are just thinner. (so thickness of connectors could be adjusted in a slicer)

These were made to be thinner, use less material, need no 3d printing support. I will post more mods, and hopefully ones with slots for sensors soon!

Sensors

Sensors are being developed and tested that can be incorporated into the ant farms, and to the tubing connecting the farms

Code is mostly in arduino, and made for a variety of resources, if you have just LEDs, or photo sensors, or SMD leds that we turn into sensors

these we be updated

Physical Rigs are available here to hold PCBs to clear tubing for the first type of sensor.
