Nocitech CPAR
The Nocitech CPAR is a computer-controlled cuff pressure algometer that delivers precise, reproducible pressure stimulation for neuroscience research. It generates customisable piecewise-linear pressure waveforms with accurate temporal control, supporting advanced psychophysical protocols. The device enables automated cuff pressure algometry protocols that are not feasible with manual devices.
The Nocitech CPAR device is included in experimental setups with an <cpar> element:
