Visigoth: psychophysics experiment presentation
visigoth is a library for controlling psychophysics experiments in Python.
It is based on PsychoPy and allows one to fully script experiments with minimal boilerplate.
To implement an experiment in visigoth one simply needs to define the logic of (1) setting up the stimuli, (2) generating parameters for a new trial, and (3) executing a single trial. All other operations are controlled by visigoth, although many can be modified by setting parameters or writing code plugins.
visigoth is designed to permit online monitoring of performance and offers a “remote control” application with real-time display of eyetracker position and trial-wise response data. Additionally, visigoth offers a library of custom stimulus classes and functions that are useful for scripting experiments, such as handling saccadic and manual responses.
