VPixx Online Classroom And Library (VOCAL)
VOCAL is a collection of online tutorials created by VPixx staff and contributors. VOCAL aims to help researchers learn about VPixx device functionality and how to optimize it for their research. Code examples and snippets are provided throughout.
Modules with the Guide tag include general explanations of device features, while the Project tag means the module includes step-by-step instructions for creating a simple experiment in MATLAB or Python. For more information, click on some of the modules below.
