Send Keystroke to Stand-Alone Software

[J_Richey]

Hello,

I am new to OpenVibe, and I wish to send a keystroke (lets say "0" or "1") depending on the cognitive state of the user.

The keystroke will ideally be read by our external stimulus presentation software (E-Prime), and this will adjust what the user sees, depending on his/her cognitive state.

As a first step, how should I go about sending the keystroke to our external software? The Button VRPN server seems like a good place to start, but it's not clear to me how to link its output to E Prime.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I hope this helps.
