The Observer XT is the most complete software for behavioral research. Supporting you from coding behaviors on a timeline and unraveling the sequence of events to integrating different data modalities in a complete lab.

Why you should use The Observer XT

• Code behavior in a quantitative way and visualize them on a timeline
• Automatically synchronize multiple data streams such as eye tracking, physiology, and emotions
• Calculate statistics and assess reliability

Benefits

1. User friendly software packageThe Observer XT is an extremely powerful software tool including data integration and analysis and still very user friendly and easy to understand.
2. Developed to study time relationshipsSynchronization is the key to understanding behavior patterns. Perfect sync is what researchers expect from Noldus.
3. Easily manage your teams workflowThe Observer XT supports the entire workflow of your project, from setting up a coding scheme with behaviors to building an elaborate filter to analyzing data. As a result, you will be able to make all the necessary preparations to collect rich and meaningful data.
   
4. Study facial expressions in combination with other dataWhen using FaceReader to automatically classify facial expressions, you can calculate statistics like the mean and maximum classification value for each of the emotions in The Observer XT. In FaceReader defined independent variables, event markers, and stimuli will transfer to The Observer XT with importing log files, making advanced analysis possible.
5. Simplification of your start/stop actionsOther recording devices (video/eye trackers/physiological measurement instruments) can be started and stopped from The Observer XT to simplify your recording process.
6. Great integration with Tobii Pro LabTobii Pro Lab and The Observer XT can be used together. Easily manage the eye tracking recording in The Observer XT.
7. Great integration with BIOPAC AcqKnowledgeCommunication between BIOPAC AcqKnowledge and The Observer XT now makes use of the Noldus network communication protocol N-Linx. This simplifies start and stop of physiological data acquisition and synchronization with the Event Log in The Observer XT.
8. Add movements patterns into your data mixYou can combine data gathered with TrackLab with other data streams in The Observer XT for enhanced analysis and visualization. Synchronization is straightforward and fast using our new viewer plugin. TrackLab software is a Noldus product for recognition and analysis of spatial behavior and the design of interactive systems.
9. Import EDF filesEuropean Data Format (EDF) files can now be imported in The Observer XT quickly and easily and are visualized in sync with your videos. EDF is a simple and flexible format for the exchange and storage of multichannel biological and physiological signals.
10. UX lab features included – add screen capture technologyYou can use digital screen capture technology to capture the test computer’s screen. Then, combine this screen capture with videos and other data in The Observer XT.
11. Smart visualization of all data streamsThe Observer XT organizes all of your data streams in one clear overview. By visualizing the data streams, you can easily see what you are collecting.
