Check back soon to see what’s next in our journey to empower research and drive new insights.
Multi-Animal Positioning System (MAPS)
Kinder MAPS is a 3D animal tracking system that uses four corner-mounted posts with six integrated anchors to track lightweight collar tags on up to eight subjects simultaneously — from rabbits to pigs and beyond. The system delivers real-time positions, visualized in a 3D GUI with live trails, playback, and automated data collection for later analysis. Designed to be modular and enclosure-agnostic, researchers can set custom pole positions and wall dimensions, enabling high-precision location and movement tracking in enclosures as small as 2×2 meters or as large as 20×20 meters. This allows labs to study subjects movement and responses, even when the subjects hug walls or jump.

Cognitive Perception Device
Aurex (Cognitive Perceptions Device):
Aurex is a modular 2×2 thermal maze designed for advanced behavioral neuroscience research. Each of its four isolated quadrants features independent temperature control via copper plates, capable of heating to 50 °C or cooling to as low as 5 °C in under 60 seconds—parameters selected to align with animal welfare standards. Quadrants can be run in Auto mode for stable thermal environments or Manual mode for researcher-defined temperature dynamics.

Automatic Height Adjuster
The Atlas Automatic Height Adjustment system replaces cumbersome manual adjustments with effortless precision. Integrated with Kinder Scientific software, Atlas lets researchers set the desired frame height digitally, then automatically moves frames into place — saving time, reducing errors, and improving consistency across studies.

Tremor Monitor
The Tremor Monitor is a precision instrument for tracking and analyzing animal movement using load cell technology and spectral analysis. By applying fast Fourier transforms to the movement data, the system identifies specific movement types and timings, providing detailed insights into physiological responses.
