Description This program is designed for the study of ocular motility functions: fixations, saccades, pursuits, optokinetic nystagmus (OKN). The dynamic EOG signals are recorded with the bioelectric recording unit. Stimulator : Signal acquisition : Universal stimulator The bioelectric amplifier with 4 input channels is highly recommended to take full advantage of simultaneous recording of horizontal and vertical eye movements. Beckmann type electrodes are recommended to achieve optimal recording quality. Reference : HVM-MonPack It is used to generate the different visual targets targets (points for adults and images for children) as well as visual stimulations for OKN. 1/2 Specifications The program can display up to 14 simultaneous channels: 2 channels for the stimulation (horizontal and vertical components), 12 channels including the position, velocity and acceleration for each of the horizontal and vertical component of each eye. Parameters used for the acquisition of data are: Resolution 1,5 uV Sampling frequency 680 Hz Maximum recording duration 72 secondes © 2014 Metrovision PVM-EO Version 19/06/2014 METROVISION 4 rue des Platanes 59840 PERENCHIES France : 33 3 20 17 19 57 : 33 3 20 17 19 51 http: //www.metrovision.com [email protected] Analysis of horizontal and vertical saccades The program allows the calibration of eye movements (to convert measurements from microvolts to degrees of visual angle). After the calibration, the program can calculate the eye velocity during saccades and make a detailed analysis including: the amplitude of the saccade, the maximum velocity, the average velocity (over the duration of the saccade), the latency (time between the stimulus and the beginning of the saccade), the asymmetry (ratio between the duration of the acceleration phase and the duration of deceleration). Analysis of pursuits and nystagmus 2/2 The program calculates the velocity gain of the smooth movement. References ORSSAUD C., INGSTER-MOATI I., ROCHE O., BUI-QUOC E., DUFIER J.L.
