Facereader automatically analyses the six basic facial expressions, as well as neutral and contempt. It also provides gaze direction, head orientation and person characteristics. The project analysis module can be used for advanced analysis and reporting: you quickly gain insight into the effects of different stimuli. Detailed analysis of action units is also available.
The Observer XT supports the entire workflow of your project, from setting up to gathering and analysing the observational data.
Tobii Studio and Tobii Pro Lab allow you to design your eye tracking test, run test sessions, observe sessions remotely, replay and visualise the results, and calculate statistics – all in a single solution.
Lab Chart is physiological data analysis software which creates a platform for all of your recording devices to work together, allowing you to collect biological signal from multiple sources such as GSR, ECR and PowerLab simultaneously and apply advanced calculations and plots, enabling customised formulae, detection, and analysis.
SuperLab is the stimulus presentation software, which allows building experiments from a simple to an advance level without programming requirements. SuperLab includes support for text, pictures, audio, movies, self-paced reading, and text RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation). It can generate event markers to external devices such as ANT, DSI and PowerLab via mpod and STIM Trackers.
The SuperLab package also includes Heart Rate Variability analysis software that provides online and offline analysis, display and reporting of variability in ECG data.
QStates is a software package that uses quantitative EEG and heart rate variability data for assessment of cognitive and physiological stat. This learning algorithm first calculates several thousand spectral EEG features. hen a Partial Least Squares algorithm uses the most salient of these features as inputs for setting weights of cognitive models based on the data collection during calibration runs of defined tasks (e.g. Easy vs. Hard Tasks or Happy vs. Sad Tasks)
Inquisit enables computer-based psychological testing and experimentation on local computers and remotely over the web. There are a library of ready-made scripts to be used in different situation e.g reactions/ behaviours; perception of a thing/activity etc via stimuli like images, videos or you can design your own scripts. The Web license enables account main users to appoint co-researchers/research assistants as sub-users.
E-Prime is a suite of applications to fulfil all of your computerised experiment needs. Used by more than 15,000 professionals in the research community, it provides a truly easy-to-use environment for computerised experiment design, data collection, and analysis. E-Prime provides millisecond precision timing to ensure the accuracy of your data. E-Prime’s flexibility to create simple to complex experiments is ideal for both novice and advanced users.
With MediaLab, participants can be administered different stimuli and different dependent measures and in different orders depending on the experimental condition. MediaLab allows for a wide variety of input including multiple choice responses, fill-in-the-blanks, essay-type open ended responses, thought and recall listings, and even ratings of one's own open-ended responses.
Direct RT is an experiment designer that allows for the collection of reaction time, and correct and incorrect responses from participants using image stimuli. You will be able to obtain keyboard, mice, joystick responses, microphones and external hardware. Present sound, video, images and text with exacting precision.
This software records eye tracking data for analysing how people interact with their environment, what catches their attention, drives their behavior, and influences decision making.
Kandao Studio 'stitches' together the videos you recorded from the 6 lenses of the obsidian 360 degree camera.
Consensys allows for the collection of galvanic skin response (i.e., sweating/stress) along with heart rate data using PPG, or otherwise ECG heart rate data. That said, it also can collect information on acceleration and deceleration, as well as tilt, pressure and temperature, etc. You are required to configure the device to record what you are interested in collecting, but you cannot collect every measure together at the same time.
Needing to be copied onto the computers that you want to use it on, the DSI streamer enables you to setup and record raw EEG from the DSI systems. Generally, this software can be used with any experiment building software, if the stimuli is edited in the specific way. Otherwise, you will likely need to use either E-prime, psychopy, or MATLAB to present the tasks.
The eego recording software enables you to setup and record raw EEG from the ANT system. Generally, this software can be used with any experiment building software, if the stimuli is edited in the specific way. Otherwise, you will likely need to use either E-prime, psychopy, or MATLAB to present the tasks.
Brain Vision Analyzer 2 is software designed to prepare and then analyse EEG data.
LORETA is software designed to analyse EEG data, specifically source localisation. You should use this software if you were interested in performing source localisation analysis with frequency data, performing the more advanced source localisation algorithms such as connectivity, or you didn't want to use source localisation in Brain Vision Analyzer 2.
Psychopy is a freely downloadable, moderate to, depending on what you want to acquire, advanced difficulty experiment builder. Psychopy can use images, audio, and videos. Psychopy can be used to collect responses, reaction time, eye-tracking, ECG, and PPG/GSR. The most basic way to use Psychopy is using the User Graphics Interface, where you can read from excel spreadsheets to enable more complex presentation of stimuli like randomisation. Psychopy can be used in tandem with EEG recording too. Do not assume that any version of psychopy is compatible with any others.
MATLAB, with the psychtoolbox extension installed, is an advanced difficulty experiment builder. MATLAB can use images, audio, and videos. MATLAB can be used to collect responses, reaction time, eye-tracking, ECG, and PPG/GSR. It can be used in tandem with EEG recordings too.
