Image of an electrocardiogram device, which prints out an ECG value sheet. Our equipment allows the collection of different physiological parameters (heart rate (variability), skin conductance level, blood pressure and cortical activity) as well as real-time location tracking within psychological experiments and field trials. The following devices are currently in use:

The SUEmpaty100 system (SUESS Medizintechnik) and the NeXus-16-A (TMS International / MINDMEDIA), which we currently have on loan.

An EEG system (NEUROSCAN) for the analysis of cortical activity within psychological experiments. The EEG is integrated into a specifically designed measurement setup.

Our high-precision measuring system for real-time location tracking (Ubisense Group plc.), which is designed for automatic measurement and tracking of distances between persons within groups for a longer period of time. The system can be installed easily and may be configured for field trials. Within a test-configuration we also provide trainings on real-time location tracking.

For EEG, we developed a specifically designed measurement setup (EEG-System 02), which is configured for laboratory use only. SUEmpathy100 and NeXus-16-A may be used as components of this EEG-System. Alternatively, both systems may also be run independently and can be used for mobile data collection.

The UBISENSE-System is generally designed for flexible usage and allows for measurements in buildings as well as outdoors.
