ElementArrayStim

class psychopy.visual.ElementArrayStim(win, units=None, fieldPos=(0.0, 0.0), fieldSize=(1.0, 1.0), fieldShape='circle', nElements=100, sizes=2.0, xys=None, rgbs=None, colors=(1.0, 1.0, 1.0), colorSpace='rgb', opacities=1.0, depths=0, fieldDepth=0, oris=0, sfs=1.0, contrs=1, phases=0, elementTex='sin', elementMask='gauss', texRes=48, interpolate=True, name=None, autoLog=None, maskParams=None)

This stimulus class defines a field of elements whose behaviour can be independently controlled. Suitable for creating ‘global form’ stimuli or more detailed random dot stimuli.

This stimulus can draw thousands of elements without dropping a frame, but in order to achieve this performance, uses several OpenGL extensions only available on modern graphics cards (supporting OpenGL2.0). See the ElementArray demo.

Parameters:

win :

a Window object (required)

units

: None, ‘height’, ‘norm’, ‘cm’, ‘deg’ or ‘pix’

If None then the current units of the Window will be used. See Units for the window and stimuli for explanation of other options.

nElements :

number of elements in the array.
