Goals
ProbeInterface aims to provide a common framework to handle probe information across neuroscience experiments.
ProbeInterface is used by the SpikeInterface package to attach probe information to a recording object. You can find detailed documentation in the SpikeInterface documentation.
In practice, ProbeInterface is a lightweight package to handle:
- probe contact geometry (both 2D and 3D layouts)
- probe shape (contour of the probe, shape of channel contacts, etc.)
- probe wiring to a device (the physical layout often doesn't match the channel ordering)
- combining several probes into a device, with probe groups and a global wiring
- exporting probe data into a common JSON file format
- loading existing probe geometry files (Cambridge Neurotech, NeuroNexus, etc.) from the probeinterface_library
In addition, ProbeInterface also offers the following features:
matplotlib-based plotting functions- loading/saving probes using common formats (PRB, CSV, NWB, ...)
- correctly handling SI units (um, mm)
