environment for creating psychology stimuli in Python

PsychoPy provides an environment for creating psychology stimuli using Python scripting language. It combines the graphical strengths of OpenGL with easy Python syntax to give psychophysics a free and simple stimulus presentation and control package.

The goal is to provide, for the busy scientist, tools to control timing and windowing and a simple set of pre-packaged stimuli and methods. PsychoPy features

 - High-level powerful scripting language (Python)
 - Simple syntax
 - Use of hardware-accelerated graphics (OpenGL)
 - Integration with Spectrascan PR650 for easy monitor calibration
 - Simple routines for staircase and constant stimuli experimental
   methods as well as curve-fitting and bootstrapping
 - Simple (or complex) GUIs via wxPython
 - Easy interfaces to joysticks, mice, sound cards etc. via PyGame
 - Video playback (MPG, DivX, AVI, QuickTime, etc.) as stimuli
