Low cost platform for multianimal chronic Local Field Potential video monitoring with Graphical User Interface for seizure detection and behavioral scoring. Enables chronic monitoring of several animals simultaneously, synchronizes bilateral local field potential and video streams in real time, and parses recorded data into manageable file sizes. Hardware solution leverages Intan and Open Ephys acquisition systems and software solution is implemented in Bonsai. Data are synchronized and parsed in Bonsai, allowing for flexibility and scalability of up to 128 channels per animal. The use of Intan adapter board for LFP video recordings allows compatibility with large variety of recording devices. Custom made electrodes and cables were components for the chronic LFP recordings. Used as acquisition system for long term video neurophysiology recordings.
