Kameleon : masse de données anatomiques pour l'étude des structures squelettiques des petits vertébrés

Measurement of motion for small vertebrates such as mice and rats is a key challenge in biology and clinical research. This measurement is very complex due to the inherent structure of these animals. Although skeletal information would be the most deterministic information, this information is hidden within the animals’ body and individual elements are difficult to identify. Through the ANR project Kameleon, we describe in this paper an experimental platform for the three dimensional study of small vertebrates. The overall approach of this platform is to combine a multiple view camera system for 3D measurement by stereoscopy with an Xray video system imaging the skeletal structure in motion. We present here the methodology for the set up of this platform and some results. Traitement du Signal – n° 3-4/2011, pages 309-328 02-Reveret 25/01/12 8:05 Page 309
