Resumo
The present study approaches the creation of a system that allows a controlled environment and equipped with filming resources to monitor biologic movement. The system uses electronic resources of temperature control, air humidity monitoring and a monitoring camera. With the intention of isolating the variables that might interfere on biologic behavior and the possibility of monitoring the organism's movement, the system becomes an excellent tool for behavior studies, allowing the adding of stressing compounds.
