FlyTrack

This device was created to allow for student experiments to study fly ambulation (walking) in a controlled space. There are 6 troughs and the flies move inside the tunnels created by the plastic body and affixed plexiglass top. They always move upwards so this can be thought of as an upside down hour glass. Students turn over the whole device for the next trial. The plan is for students to record video of the experiment for analysis, and the plastic is thin enough to allow for backlighting i
