The Open Ephys GUI (pronounced "gooey") is an open-source platform for acquiring electrophysiological data and controlling experimental stimuli. It's not quite ready for field testing, but most of the major components are in place. We'll eventually need people to help develop it, so if you're interested in lending a hand, please get in touch via the Open Ephys contact page.
