Debian Science Psychophysics packages

libfreenect is a cross-platform library that provides the necessary interfaces to activate, initialize, and communicate data with the Kinect hardware. Currently, the library supports access to RGB and depth video streams, motors, accelerometer and LED and provide binding in different languages (C++, Python...)

This library is the low level component of the OpenKinect project which is an open community of people interested in making use of the Xbox Kinect hardware with PCs and other devices.

This is the development package containing the libraries and header for software development with libfreenect.

Psychophysics Toolbox Version 3 (PTB-3) is a free set of Matlab and GNU/Octave functions for vision research. It makes it easy to synthesize and show accurately controlled visual and auditory stimuli and interact with the observer.

The Psychophysics Toolbox interfaces between Matlab or Octave and the computer hardware. The Psychtoolbox's core routines provide access to the display frame buffer and color lookup table, allow synchronization with the vertical retrace, support millisecond timing, allow access to OpenGL commands, and facilitate the collection of observer responses. Ancillary routines support common needs like color space transformations and the QUEST threshold seeking algorithm.

See also http://www.psychtoolbox.org/UsingPsychtoolboxOnUbuntu for additional information about systems tune-up and initial configuration.

This package contains bindings for Octave.

PsychoPy provides an environment for creating psychology stimuli using Python scripting language. It combines the graphical strengths of OpenGL with easy Python syntax to give psychophysics a free and simple stimulus presentation and control package.

The goal is to provide, for the busy scientist, tools to control timing and windowing and a simple set of pre-packaged stimuli and methods. PsychoPy features

• IDE GUI for coding in a powerful scripting language (Python)
• Builder GUI for rapid development of stimulation sequences
• Use of hardware-accelerated graphics (OpenGL)
• Integration with Spectrascan PR650 for easy monitor calibration
• Simple routines for staircase and constant stimuli experimental methods as well as curve-fitting and bootstrapping
• Simple (or complex) GUIs via wxPython
• Easy interfaces to joysticks, mice, sound cards etc. via PyGame
• Video playback (MPG, DivX, AVI, QuickTime, etc.) as stimuli

This graphical environment provides an easy to use, point-and-click interface for creating psychological experiments. In addition to a powerful sketchpad for creating visual stimuli, OpenSesame features a sampler and synthesizer for sound playback. For more complex tasks, OpenSesame supports Python scripting using the built-in editor with syntax highlighting.

Stimulus counter-balance is important for many experimental designs. This command-line software creates De Bruijn cycles, which are pseudo-random sequences with arbitrary levels of counterbalance. "Path-guided" de Bruijn cycles may also be created. These sequences encode a hypothesized neural modulation at specified temporal frequencies, and have enhanced detection power for BOLD fMRI experiments.

PEBL (Psychology Experiment Building Language) is a system designed for creating psychology and neuroscience experiments and tests. It offers a simple programming language tailor-made for creating and conducting many standard experiments.

The Vision Egg is a programming library that uses standard, inexpensive computer graphics cards to produce visual stimuli for vision research experiments.

Nrec , developed by Friedemann Bunjes and Jan Gukelberger at the Neurology of Tübingen University, is a package for stimulation, data acquisition and experiment control in the flavour of cognitive fMRI research, which has been expanded to include flexible biosignal acquisition and sensory stimulation. It produces Matlab-readable files and generally puts an emphasis on standards like using the comedi Linux data acquisition library, OpenGL, XML parameter file format and hdf5 data storage files format.

Psychlops is a free C++ library to offer the easy way to develop a demonstration of various types of visual stimulus used in the Vision science.

Binary builds are available only for OS X and Windows. Sources available from sf's SVN: http://sourceforge.jp/projects/psychlops/svn/view/cpp/

Tscope is a C/C++ experiment programming library for cognitive scientists. It provides functions for graphics, sound, timing, randomization and response registration.
