Core 3: Instrumentation & Software Resource Core Abstract The goal of the Instrumentation and Software Resource Core (ISRC) is to support our team research efforts by developing and maintaining custom experimental instruments and analysis software. Dr. Michael Dickinson will serve as lead PI for the Core, and we will recruit a staff member with training in computer engineering and instrumentation to run the Core. The ISRC will design, fabricate, and support new instruments, including the development of analysis software. Caltech will provide support for the ISRC effort by providing facilities available through their existing Center for Neurotechnology. Although the primary goal the ISRC is to support the research within our team project, our design strategy will ensure that all the tools we develop will be disseminate freely through the research community. The ISRC will work in concert with the Data Sciences Resource Core (DSRT) to ensure that all data formats from new instruments satisfy the requirements for ease of storage and dissemination. Through principled design we will ensure that all new instrumentation employs state-of-the art standards for compression, short and long-term storage capabilities, and format longevity. By developing all instruments using industry-standard CAD software formats and the use of modern fabrication practices, we will make all of our instruments and associated software available to the general neuroscience community. For the most challenging tasks, such as the development of virtual reality systems or real-time machine vision behavioral tracking, we will utilize a powerful set of software tools called ROS (Robot Operating System, www.ros.org), which is a framework for software development specialized for robotic applications.

核心3：仪器仪表和软件资源核心 抽象的 仪器和软件资源核心 (ISRC) 的目标是通过以下方式支持我们团队的研究工作： 开发和维护定制实验仪器和分析软件。迈克尔·迪金森博士 将担任核心的首席 PI，我们将招募一名接受过计算机工程和 运行核心的仪器。 ISRC 将设计、制造和支持新仪器，包括 分析软件的开发。加州理工学院将通过提供设施来支持 ISRC 的工作 通过他们现有的神经技术中心可以获得。尽管 ISRC 的主要目标是支持 我们团队项目中的研究，我们的设计策略将确保我们开发的所有工具 通过研究界自由传播。 ISRC 将与数据科学部门合作 资源核心 (DSRT)，确保新仪器的所有数据格式满足轻松要求 的存储和传播。通过原则性设计，我们将确保所有新仪器均采用 压缩、短期和长期存储能力以及格式寿命的最先进标准。经过 使用行业标准 CAD 软件格式和现代制造技术开发所有仪器 实践中，我们将向一般神经科学提供我们所有的仪器和相关软件 社区。对于最具挑战性的任务，例如虚拟现实系统或实时系统的开发 机器视觉行为跟踪，我们将利用一套强大的软件工具，称为ROS（机器人操作 System，www.ros.org），这是一个专门用于机器人应用程序的软件开发框架。
