Hello everyone,
I have managed to code stimuli using psychtoolbox that displays a motion coherence paradigm for translational moving dots. However, I would also like to code radial and rotation patterns but I don't know the maths for this!
I was wondering if anyone could help me to adjust my code to make the dots move inward/outward and clockwise/anticlockwise.
At the moment, my dots move position by using this code:
dx = speed*sin(direction*pi)/frameRate;
dy = -speed*cos(direction*pi)/frameRate;
And (in case it's helpful) they remain in an aperture using this code:
x(x<lefBorder) = x(x<lefBorder) + apSize(1);
x(x>rigBorder) = x(x>rigBorder) - apSize(1);
y(y<botBorder) = y(y<botBorder) + apSize(2);
y(y>topborder) = y(y>topBorder) - apSize(2);
I hope one of you clever people will be able to help me out! Thank you, Sam
