ColorDome is necessary because it can be customized to generate different blue, green, red, and xenon light at various intensities. These different lights are used as stimulators for the animal eyes which we can then measure their responses. In addition, this ColorDome is in the shape of a cradle. This feature is important because it can shield animals from outside/environmental light which will interfere with the test. There is no other similar product in the market that is in the right shape and can be customized and calibrated to generate lights at different wavelengths and intensities. The ColorDome can be customized with different LED light stimulators generating various wavelength lights according to our experimental needs. It can install UV LED light which is in the sensitive range of mouse vision. The lab currently has a Diagnosys ColorDome E3, however the lab needs a replacement/updated ColorDome for ongoing experiments. Only the requested ColorDome, is compatible and will interact optimally with the labs existing Diagnosys ColorDome E3 console and computer, which is a must for this requirement. In addition, the same set up is required for consistency of ongoing experiments. Diagnosys is the only known supplier of the Model D137 Color Dome system.
