[INFO] Monkey Logic and PTB

1
Just a heads up that the next version of Monkey Logic (ML), a Matlab framework to support behavioural psychophysics for human and non-human primates will soon support PTB as a display solution:

I think the current support is very basic and performs a wee bit slower in some places than their DirectX display code, but they aim to extend the integration over time. I had previously provided some input to them on how to optimise for PTB a bit, and I'm sure they can improve things further.

Currently it is locked to Windows due to the Data acquisition toolbox to support their analog eyetracker, but we have previously hacked this out and replaced it with the more elegant Eyelink toolbox ourselves without too much trouble. ML is slowly gaining ground as the main replacement for CORTEX for many behavioural neurophysiology labs.

Any updates on this? When will it be ready?
