Optimised Motion Tracking for Positron Emission Tomography Studies of Brain Function in Awake Rats

Figure 6

Setup for the robot-controlled motion.

Diagram showing the six degree-of-freedom robot with the hot rod phantom attached to the end-effector. The apparent location of the end-effector was shifted along the axis of the phantom by 45 mm, corresponding to the middle third of the cylinder. This more closely resembled the proximity of the marker to the brain in the original motion data. The 8-point and 3-point markers used for tracking were stuck to the marker substrate (on the opposite side to that visible here).
