Primate Applications

Introduction
Primate applications typically involve recording from awake, behaving monkeys engaged in behavioral or perceptual tasks. The following types of signals are acquired and analyzed in experiments involving primates:

  • Spike action potentials and local field potentials from depth microelectrodes and microwires
  • Single, stereotrode, and tetrode spike acquisition and sorting
  • EMG electrode
  • Superficial EEG
  • Timing and content complex sensory stimuli (often visual) from an external experimental control system
  • x,y coordinate data from external eye-tracking systems including magnetic field, infra-red, or video-based tracking
  • Stimulation onset event
  • Trial onset/termination – trial-based recording
