Abstract
In recent years, neurogenetics research of drosophila experiment is more needed. In this thesis, novel sleep monitoring platform which is capable of installing multiple stimulation modules and automatic monitoring of sleep is developed. The stimulation modules are controlled by LabVIEW programs. This study gave the odorant and humidity stimuli to disturb the sleep of flies in the night. The physical damage is minimal using the non-contact method. The sleep behavior video was recorded by Infrared camera to provide drosophila sleep data. The novel sleep monitoring platform provides a new neurogenetics research tool in drosophila sleep. In the future, scientists are able to develop effective medicine to help people who suffers from insomnia.
