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