One of most common hair-pulling issue that psychologists or neuroscientists are facing when setuping an experiment is sending triggers (i.e., event markers) to other recording devices such as BIOPAC® or EEG systems. The whole ecosystem of hardware for cognitive science is corrupted by proprietary systems, with brands such as Chronos® or Cedrus filling the gaps and taking advantage of researchers and their often publicly-funded research. As a results, scientists are left with expensive, complicated, and bad options to precisely time their experiment.
NeuroBox is the remedy.
NeuroBox aims to help you send triggers (event markers) from your experiment to other systems. It relies on the most accurate technique, a photosensor, which will react to the stimulus' physical display on the screen and send this information to your recording device.
