redsticker.jpg The fORP Electronic Interface supports all of our handheld units and all psychometric software packages, so it can be shared easily by users with differing platforms. It is the heart of the fORP system, transmitting and receiving the optical signals and producing the computer outputs. There is a trigger input for synchronizing computer response data with MRI or MEG data.
