Neuron SpikerBox Classic
Explore real neural activity with a simple, affordable single-channel neural signal amplifier.
The Neuron SpikerBox Classic is a single-channel bioamplifier that brings real electrophysiology into the classroom, lab, or home. Hear action potentials from live invertebrate neurons, then view, record, and analyze them with our free Spik
Connection options depend on your device. Computers and laptops can use the included blue cable with a separate microphone input, the green cable with a combined headphone/microphone jack, or Micro-USB. Phones and tablets use the green cabl
Experiments
Touch and Pressure: How Your Body Feels Different Forces
Discover how neurons detect and respond to different touch intensities in a cockroach leg.
Somatotopy
In this experiment, you’ll explore how touch neurons respond differently depending on the part of the body that’s stimulated.
Spikes! Hear and See Living Neurons
Learn how neurons send signals by exploring cockroach nervous system activity driving movement.
Neural Adaptation
In this experiment, you’ll investigate how sensory neurons adapt to constant stimuli, a process called neural adaptation.
Referencing Your Spikes
Why do we need more than one electrode to measure neural activity? In this experiment, you’ll explore the role of reference electrodes and how their placement affects recordings.
