Psychology/sports science/exercise science people - here's a thread of online (or social-distancing friendly) resources for dissertation data collection. Add yours to the bottom! (1/n)

Pystoolkit - a bunch of free online editable cog psych experiments which run in the browser https://www.psytoolkit.org/

Fancy eye tracking with the webcam?

Gaze recorder: https://gazerecorder.com/gazecloudapi/

and

WebGazer: https://webgazer.cs.brown.edu/

GazeCloudAPI - Real-Time online Eye-Tracking API

With just a few lines of code, you can install our API into your website or app to start tracking your users’ eyes via WebCam.

Pavlovia - slick platform for running online studies https://pavlovia.org/

Create them in Psychopy https://www.psychopy.org/

Pavlovia

The place for the wide community of researchers in the behavioural sciences to run, share, and explore experiments online

Want to run studies in Unity? Either for VR, or just 3d experiments? Try the Unity Experiment Framework by @jackbrookes http://immersivecognition.com/unity-experiment-framework/

or the BioMotionLab Toolkit by @BioMotionLab http://www.biomotionlab.ca/tux/

Here's a wikipedia page full of software for collecting data from mobile phones https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phone_based_sensing_software

If you want to collect kinematic variables from video footage, try @DeepLabCut http://www.mousemotorlab.org/deeplabcut

DeepLabCut — adaptive motor control lab

DeepLabCut™ is an efficient method for 3D markerless pose estimation based on transfer learning with deep neural networks that achieves excellent results (i.e. you can match human labeling accuracy)...

Interested in different platforms' timing? Here's a preprint for that https://psyarxiv.com/d6nu5/

The timing mega-study: comparing a range of experiment generators, both lab-based and online

Many researchers in the behavioral sciences depend on research software that presents stimuli, and records response times, with sub-millisecond precision. There are a large number of software...
