bRMS

bRMS experiment contains stimulus and mask parts. On the stimulus part one of your stimulus picture will appear after a fade in time.

The mask part contains several modrians in different colors, switching places and colors between each other.

The mask part is not mandatory, if you want to disable it, just set the Mask Duration to be 0.

Each component size can be change, but be aware that change one size can harm the harmony of the experiment, and please be cautious with it. First of all we need to import data CSV file, contains all stimuli names on the first column and stimulus tags on each columns, tags order are irrelevant.
