The Biopac series of Data Acquisition Systems are ideal for recording a variety of physiological parameters and response events in the psychophysiology laboratory.

• Autonomic Nervous System Studies
• Evoked Response
• Event-Related Potential (P300 Tests)
• Startle Eye Blink Experiments
• Sexual Arousal Studies
• Heart Rate Variability
• Auditory & Visual Evoked Response Testing

Biopac Hardware options & features of special interest to the psychophysiologist include:

• Skin conductance amplifier & electrodes
• Pulse plethysmograph amplifier & transducer - for easy heart rate measurement
• Amplifiers for EEG, ECG, EMG and evoked responses
• Amplifiers & transducers for respiration & temperature
• Stimulator module and stroboscope
• Push-button and variable response inputs

The Biopac STP100W is a Stimulus Presentation System comprising Cedrus Corporation's SuperLab software, digital I/O card & support package, six-pushbutton response box and keycap kit, and an optical interface to the Biopac UIM100C. The latter allows synchronisation and timing data exchange between the SuperLab and MP100 systems, while maintaining the full isolation of the latter.

The combined systems (running on two separate computers) can present visual stimuli on a computer screen, or auditory stimuli via headphones or speakers, and simultaneously (1ms resolution) capture timing and any other physiological data. The SuperLab software can be used to change the placement of visual stimuli on the screen, change the screens background color, choose from a variety of input and timing options, and provide feedback to subjects based on either response or reaction time. Different trigger channels can be paired to different visual or auditory stimuli to perform sophisticated evoked response averaging tests (e.g. P300).
