Active commutator

photo

A simple open source active commutator for Open Ephys / Intan electrophysiology systems. Uses a hall sensor and magnet to detect rotation of the cable, a slip ring powered by a continuous rotation servo to correct it, controlled by an Adafruit Trinket M0 running Circuitpython.

Inspired by earlier designs from Liberti et al. 2017 and Fee and Leonardo 2001.

For information on connectorising Neuropixels cables for use with the commutator see here.
