fiber within the bundle creates circular spots on a CMOS sensor. The electrical read-out from pixels within each fiber image correlates with the calcium activity of the corresponding brain site within Doric Neuroscience Studio (Fig.1.1b). The system is available for single and dual color measurements with isosbestic reference excitation (Fig.1.1a).
• The BFMC Gen3 is also equipped with a power switch and 2 status lights turning ON when the device is powered on and connected to Doric Neuroscience Studio software (Fig. 2.1). • The 12 VDC power input port is used to power the BFMC Gen3 (Fig. 2.1).
