stimulus/square_wave
Squarewave
A squarewave stimulus was presented. Squarewaves modulate with a certain frequency about the intensity offset.
Modality
string
The stimulus modality like acoustic, haptic, visual etc.
Duration
float
s
The duration of the stimulus in seconds.
TemporalOffset
float
s
The temporal offset (with respect to the begin of the recorded trial) with which this stimulus was presented.
Function
string
The function of the described stimulus. E.g. if the white noise constituted the carrier.
OutputChannel
string
The physical output device (e.g. an analog output channel, a monitor screen, the same loudspeaker, etc.). This information can be used to explicitely express that several stimuli (that share the same OutputChannel) are jointly presented.
Frequency
float
Hz
The frequency of the square wave modulation.
DutyCycle
float
The part of the cylce spend in the up state. E.g. 0.5 if up and down state each take half of the time.
Amplitude
float
The modulation amplitude (i.e. the difference between up and downstate.)
IntensityOffset
float
The mean intensity of the stimulus.
StartAmplitude
float
The amlitude with which the squarewave stimulus started. This may assume either intensity offset - or + amplitude/2.
Position
2-tuple
The position of the stimulus on e.g the screen. Specified as a 2-tuple (x;y). By default this position refers to the top-left corner of the object or its bounding box.
PositionReference
top-left
string
center
string
bottom-right
string
By default stimulus positions are specified by the coordinates of the top-left corner (or of the bounding box). Use this property for other definitions.
SpatialExtent
2-tuple
The spatial extend of the presented stimulus (width;height) e.g. (1024;768).
