Symposium at Behavior meeting 2015 - Virtual reality: Computer animations as a tool in animal behavior research

[sue_bertram]

Computer animated stimuli provide the opportunity to control and standardize presentation of behaviour. But it can be technically challenging to create animations. This symposium will serve as a forum where researchers using computer animations present and discuss their current work showing what is already possible in behavioural research. Besides addressing biological questions, technical information will be addressed as well as tools that are not too costly, reduce technical concerns and increase the accessibility of this line of work.
