Abstract

MazeSuite is a comprehensive software suite for spatial navigation experiments allowing researchers to build, design and analyze experiments in 3D environments and extend both protocols and functionality using an accessible API. MazeSuite was built to promote easy-to-use development of experimental protocols which can be synchronized with physiological and neuroimaging methods easily and is freely-available online at (http://mazesuite.com). The platform consists of three principal applications: MazeMaker, a tool to build and edit 3D environments, MazeWalker, a presentation tool which the subject uses to navigate and interact with the environment, and MazeAnalyzer, a tool to display, track, and analyze behavioral performance recorded during the experiment (Figure 1). Although the primary focus of the package is the development of spatial navigation experiments, MazeSuite has been applied in many fields of investigation, including neuromarketing, brain-computer interface (BCI) development, cooperative tasks, and neurostimulation. Here, we review some of the principle uses of the software package and present the new feature-sets which have been recently introduced.
