Warning
These docs are under active development, feel free to contribute by either raising an issue or following the links saying Edit this page.
OpenEphys.Onix1 is a library that can be used in Bonsai to acquire data from ONIX devices, such as the ONIX PCIe Acquisition System. For more details on the ONI specification, check out this link, and to learn more about ONIX devices and their implementation of ONI, click here.
Advantages
While data can be acquired using programs other than Bonsai, there are a number of advantages that come from building OpenEphys.Onix1 as a Bonsai library. A major advantage is that it maintains maximal compatibility with open source programs, including OpenCV, DeepLabCut, and many more.
Other major advantages include:
- Visual interface provided by building on top of Bonsai's foundation
- Time-stamped synchronization across multiple devices
- Combine data streams for real-time processing
