PVRT - Peripheral Visual Recognition Task for Python

====================================================

by Simon Schwab

PVRT (Peripheral visual recognition task) is opensource Python software

based on the PsychoPy framework to conduct visual experiments, in which

first a visual target is presented in the center and then in the periphery

of the visual field.

- Presentation of visual stimuli using OpenGL

- Recording of subject responses through parallel port using the PortIO library

- Eye and head calibration according to the requirements of the eye tracker

- Notification of the eye tracker (TTL signals)

- Well structured data files for further processing

A. Requirements

===============

- PsychoPy v1.60 or highter (http://www.psychopy.org/)

- Tk/Tkinter a Graphical User Interface Framework

- PortIO (http://portio.inrim.it/)

- OpenGL

B. Installation instruction for Ubuntu

======================================

a) Install PsychoPy requirements

  $ sudo apt-get install python-wxgtk2.8 python-numpy python-scipy python-pyglet

b) $ sudo apt-get install psychopy

c) Install Tkinter

   $ sudo apt-get install python-tk #if not already installed

d) PortIO

   Download PortIO from http://portio.inrim.it/ and unpack it

   $ tar xvf portio-0.4.tar.gz

   $ cd portio-0.4/

   But first, before we build it, you need python-dev

   $ sudo apt-get install python-dev #if not already installed

   Build and install PortIO

   $ sudo python setup.py install

f) $ sudo apt-get install python-opengl #if not already installed

g) Finally, install and run pvrtask

   Unpack the pvrtask package

   cd pvrtask/src

   $ sudo python pvrtask.py
