This experimental protocol demonstrates the use of virtual prism adaptation therapy (VPAT) in healthy adults and the association between VPAT and functional near infrared spectroscopy to determine the effect of VPAT on cortical activation. Results suggest that VPAT may be feasible and could induce similar behavioral adaptation as conventional prism adaptation therapy.

Here, we present a procedure for performing large-scale Ca2+ imaging with cellular-resolution across multiple cortical layers in freely moving mice. Hundreds of active cells can be observed simultaneously using a miniature, head-mounted microscope coupled with an implanted prism probe.
FAQs
A prism net closes correctly when its two congruent bases remain matched and the connected lateral faces fold around them to form the prism’s sides. Congruence matters because the bases must have the same shape and size, while the lateral strip must connect corresponding edges. This relationship lets a flat arrangement reconstruct one consistent three-dimensional solid.
The crucial test is whether folding along every shared edge produces a closed solid without overlapping surfaces. A layout may contain the necessary faces yet fail if its placement causes faces to collide or leaves part of the prism open. Checking the fold sequence and final alignment distinguishes a usable net from an arrangement that cannot reconstruct the intended prism.
Add the areas of the two congruent polygonal bases to the areas of every lateral face shown in the net. Because the net displays each surface separately, the calculation converts a three-dimensional measurement into a collection of plane-figure areas. This approach makes it possible to determine the prism’s complete outer area without measuring an assembled solid.
They require learners to connect a flat arrangement with the solid it forms after folding. Following edges, predicting which faces meet, and checking whether surfaces overlap develops the ability to visualize changes between two and three dimensions. These activities also clarify how plane figures combine to create the faces of a geometric solid.
Start by arranging two matching polygonal bases with the required rectangular or parallelogram-shaped lateral faces connected along appropriate edges. Then inspect the layout for complete coverage and possible overlap, and mentally or physically fold along the shared edges. The final check is whether all faces align to form a closed prism with no exposed gaps or collisions.
Prism nets support practical designs involving packaging, physical models, and geometric constructions. A designer can examine a flat layout before forming the three-dimensional object, while a student can use the same layout to connect surface-area calculations with a tangible model. Their value lies in linking mathematical analysis, visualization, and construction within one representation.
