First the screen is brightened and the response time is measured as in cathode ray timing, but the computer measures only which scanline was hit and not which horizontal pixel was hit.

The initial efforts are primarily aimed at non-recurring situations where the signal timing can be modified in response to freeway incidents.

These slight variations can include small differences in the specific motions involved, differences in the amount of force applied, and small changes in the timing of the response.

Mice took significantly longer to produce CRs, and the timing and gain of the response were distorted ( Chen et al., 1996 ).

On the other hand, after immersion in the solution there is a ' settling time ' which can be five minutes or even longer, before the electrode and galvanometer equilibrate to a new reading ; so that timing of the reading is critical in order to find the most accurate ' window ' after the response has settled, but before it has drifted appreciably.
