Applications: Behaviour Measurement

Research human and animal behaviour with I-CubeX sensors ! They can capture a variety of events and signals - see the list below.

Examples

  • Automatically add markers to your video observation that indicate behaviours of interest: eg. when someone enters a part of the room or picks up a specific object.
  • Automatically record behaviour of visitors to your booth: eg. detect whether they pass by, approach, reach, touch and pickup objects.
  • Automatically record consumption behaviour of customers in a restaurant: how often or when they grab a cookie or a drink.
  • Automatically record driving behaviour in a car: how often or when the radio is touched or changed.
  • Record and add detailed sensor data to measurement of behaviour in a video observation.
  • Measure behavioural parameters and use the data to create audio-visual effects in real-time to trigger or elicit new behaviour or to modify the behaviour being measured.
  • How does it work ?

    Sensors are connected to a computer, using one of the following thumb-sized interfaces:

  • WiDig: 8 analog (10-bit) / digital (I2C) inputs at > 5 KS/s and 8 digital (binary or I2C) outputs (for actuators), via USB, BLE or WiFi.
  • USB-microDig: 8 analog (10-bit) / digital (I2C) inputs at > 5 KS/s and 8 digital (binary or I2C) outputs (for actuators), via USB.
  • Wi-microDig: 8 analog (10-bit) / digital (I2C) inputs at > 1 KS/s via "Classic" Bluetooth wireless with 100 meter range.
  • With I-CubeX software you can now configure the sensor interface to process the sensor signals and events. You can then record the human/animal behaviours with software like Noldus Observer XT for analysis, and:

  • Use our Keys software to make your I-CubeX sensor data appear as keyboard strokes/strings that control the observer software such that it adds entries in the observer log to mark regions of interest or to code behaviours directly.
  • Use our Editor software to record and add detailed sensor data to measurement of behaviour in a video observation.
  • Use our Editor or Link software to control audio-visual effects with behavioural parameter data in real-time to trigger or elicit new behaviour or to modify the behaviour being studied.
  • Note that there is a wealth of other software and devices that you can use in conjunction with I-CubeX to record or visualize the data and/or to map the data to audiovisual feedback.
