https://edspace.american.edu/openbehavior/project/mousemove/

Portal provides MouseMove software system used to analyze Open Field behavior of mice after experimental stroke to show reduced locomotor activity and to quantify laterality deficits. System is used in combination with open source program ImageJ and MTrack2 plugin to analyze pre recorded Open Field test video. System has two downloadable components, ImageJ macro and separate program with custom built MouseMove GUI. ImageJ is used to subtract background video from experiment and create image of animals total trajectory. MouseMove GUI then completes detailed analysis of movement patterns, measuring fractional time spent stationary, distance traveled, speed mean and various details of laterality.
