Abstract:
This paper mainly introduces how to use C8051F330 MCU to design an implantable (implanted) animal activity detector with low-power technology. Through the animal activity data detected by the device, animal activity rhythm can be reflected indirectly, which provides good basis for the research of animal rhythm. Research results showed that the device, which could also provide a reliable experimental platform for further study of chronobiology (biological rhythm) in animals by detecting the signal of animal activity, has the advantages (characteristics) of good performance, lower power consumption, simple operation and highly reliability.
