Experiment data acquisition solution for web-based experiments
Radcloud is a web-based platform designed to facilitate the data acquisition phase in web-based experiments.
It is available for users with a RU login.
This documentation will guide you through:
- Creating a data acquisition location (Radcloud experiment) in the Experiment Manager user interface.
- Importing the DataHandler script to send data from your web experiment to the designated location.
Features

- The data can be downloaded in a large number of formats suitable for many different data analysis systems. Experimental data can be exported to a format suitable for Python Pandas, SPSS, Excel, R, Gnuplot, PSPP, and many more.
- Secure data storage
- Radcloud stores the data for online Social Science experiments. Data is stored securely at Radboud campus.
- Experiment location independent
- Experiments can be hosted anywhere, including Radboud campus, your own campus, Pavlovia, or a lab computer.
Radcloud Components
The Radcloud platform consists of three main components.
