Physiological Measurements: Methods and Tools


One of the exhibiting companies, ALEA Solutions GmbH, organized a workshop to instruct conference delegates in new techniques, products and equipment for behavioral research.

Summary
In this workshop, participants learned methods for measurement and analysis of physiological data and got hints for dealing with small signals, artifacts, noise and large files in signals like EMG, ECG, force, pressure, angles, etc.

Additional topics included:
- combined measurement and stimulation
- event triggering
- latency investigation
- automation of measurement and processing routines
- importance of wiring to prevent from ground-loops
