ep.eye_meta_check: Check ep.eye metadata

ep.eye_meta_checkR Documentation

Check ep.eye metadata

Description

When loaded into the environment, an .edf file will be parsed with fields corresponding to $raw, $sacc, $fix, and $blink. Saccades, fixations, and blinks are called "gaze events" in the ep.eye nomenclature and denote the presence of an event of significance within gaze data. This function unifies raw data with gaze events by generating unique gaze event numbers, merges them to raw data and validates that timestamps from raw and gaze event fields are in correspondence.
