Data Collection software for real time observation of events. A real time event recorder for researchers, event time tracking, job time tracking or any application requiring the time based tracking of an event . Data can be saved and exported for further analysis including sequential time series analysis. The program allows a user to configure keys that can be set with a tag and be momentary or toggle event timers (example: click button when starting to ride a bike, click off when finished + all other simultaneous collection functions. Researchers can capture observational data in real time, save and export for subsequent analysis. The program can provide for up to 24 keys to be tagged with user addressable annotation. The keys can also be set to be momentary or toggled (requiring a secondary depression to turn off). Data is captured in a file that identifies the key,tag,start and end time of the events in milli seconds. Events can then be processed with statistical software for additional analysis. Perfect for Educational , Health Care , Research, Job tracking, Event collection and subsequent analysis . An excellent tool for anyone interested in evaluating event timing, occurances, durations and sequentional analysis of systems.
