Introduction Occlusal cant (OC) is a malocclusion trait that lacks accurate clinical assessment methods. The occlusal canting identifying tool (OCIT) was invented and patented as a clinical tool to accurately identify and quantify the degree of maxillary OC. This study aimed to 1) develop a prototype of the OCIT, 2)…

Animal-borne tracking devices (bio-loggers) are established instruments for researching animal behaviour. However, commercial animal trackers are rather standardized and not perfectly adapted to species-specific requirements. Although species-specific solutions are developed, customization effort is high and requires…
