Stimulation

ADInstruments offers a comprehensive and easy-to-use solution for visual stimulus presentation and evoked response studies to study behavioral and cognitive neuroscience, and decision-making. With the combination of SuperLab and StimTracker from Cedrus with PowerLab and LabChart, you can create an integrated system with simple media management, tracking and complete control of your research data.

Our human approved stimulus isolators also allow for studies requiring electrical stimulation of nerves. PowerLab can also interface with other types of stimulators, such as TMS machines for non-invasive brain stimulation.
