Qt app to measure a user's average reaction time.
Using the program is simple.
- Click Begin
- Press the spacebar as soon as the millisecond counter starts to count up
- After ten trials, your average reaction time (in milliseconds) is displayed in green
ReactionTime provides a rough metric of how long it takes for a user to react to an event that happens at a random time. It's not meant to be a precise measurement, but it can be used to gauge differences between different people, or between the same person at different times.
Between trials, the program pauses for between 2 and 8 seconds, chosen at random. The random number generator is seeded by the time of day, so concurrent runs of the program will not produce the same delay times.
