Paradigm Elements

Simple and Accurate Integration with a Wide Range of Devices

With Paradigm Elements you'll be able to communicate with a wide range of devices including EEG systems from ANT, BioSemi, BrainVision and Neuroscan as well as Biopac or any device that accepts triggers through a Parallel Port or a DIO-24 port. Elements commands are added directly to the events in your experiment so you get the best possible synchronization between triggers and event onsets. Paradigm Elements tightly integrates into the Paradigm user interface and scripting interface for ease-of-use and flexibility.

Send Triggers to Multiple Devices Simultaneously

Paradigm Elements for Ports enables simultaneous data collection by letting you send triggers to multiple devices for each stimulus in your experiment. For example, a combined EEG, BIOPAC experiment where both sets of collected data have markers for stimulus onsets. Paradigm Elements lets you conduct cutting edge multi-modal research using a variety of devices.

Send Triggers at Any Point During a Stimulus

When presenting movies or long audio files you often want to mark events at multiple time points during the stimulus playback. Paradigm Elements lets you specify whether a trigger should be sent at stimulus onset or at some later point during the stimulus presentation (e.g. asynchronous triggers). You'll be able to perform much more accurate analysis of, for instance, ERP responses to events during a variety of active stimuli.

Communicate with Devices Using Paradigm's Python Scripting API

Paradigm Elements also gives you access to trigger commands through Paradigm's Python scripting interface. You can send triggers as part of any script implementation giving maximum flexibility and control.
