In Data Viewer reports, variables are often prefixed to indicate their source: LEFT_, RIGHT_, and AVERAGE_.
If your dataset contains a mix of monocular and binocular recordings, managing separate columns for left and right eyes can complicate your analysis.
Cyclopean Mode unifies your data. When enabled, it intelligently populates the AVERAGE_ variables with data from whichever eye was recorded (or the average of both if available), creating a single, consistent column for all participants.
To enable this feature:
- For binocular data: The AVERAGE_ variables contain the mean value of the corresponding LEFT_ and RIGHT_ eye data.
- For monocular data: By default, the AVERAGE_ variables are left blank, as there is no second eye to average against.
