• length: Wave length of the sin wave
• slow: The inverse of the speed of the particle motion
• randDelay: Delay between random changes of particle positions from sin wave path
• randLevelX: Highest random range of value added to X coordinates of particles
• randLevelY: Highest random range of value added to Y coordinates of particles
• PartcleSize: Size of the particles in pixel

Output files

(SubID)particle_result(DateTime)

Columns:

• subjectID: Subject ID
• block: Current block number
• trial: Current trial number
• randDelay: Delay between random changes of particle positions from sin wave path
• randLevelX: Highest random range of value added to X coordinates of particles
• randLevelY: Highest random range of value added to Y coordinates of particles
• PartcleSize: Size of the particles in pixel
• xPos: Position of the coursour in X axis.
• yPos: Position of the coursour in Y axis.
• Particle_(num)_X: X coordinate of particle number (num). If the particle is touched then the coordinate is 'nan'.
