Real time

The Peeler have been design to do the processing chunk by chunk in mind. So the offline Peeler is also adapted to OnlinePeeler to be used in real time. OnlinePeeler is a pyacq Node.

pyacq is a system for distributed data acquisition and stream processing. It support some device use in electrophysiology (Blackrock, Multichannel system, Measurement computing, National Instrument, …). Pyacq offer the possibility to dtsribute the computing on several machines. So it is particulary usefull in online spike sorting context when high channel count. The user will be able to distribute on several machines: the acquisition itself, the OnelinePeeler and some display.

pyacq and Tridesclous do not offer a strict real real time engine but an online engine which latency whihch can be controlled by the chunksize.
