Whisk - Whisker Tracking
node:body | entity_field
Software for Automated Segmentation and Tracking of Mouse Whiskers from High-speed Video
Whisk is a cross-platform package for fully automated tracking of single rows of whiskers in high-speed video. It consists of a set of command-line utilities and a graphical interface for semi-automated tracking. Python and Matlab interfaces are also provided. Whisk can read StreamPix SEQ and TIFF as well as any video format that FFMPEG can decode.

Screenshot of ui2.py looking at the result after #Step 4. Identified whiskers are labelled red, green, and blue. Light yellow indicates a "non-whisker" trace. The green ball identifies the follicle of the selected whisker.
