When using the Portal website to record data with the Flow2 or DevKit headset, it is strongly recommended that you use a Chrome internet browser. Other browsers are not guaranteed to work.

A recording ends when the maximum duration elapses or the researcher clicks the Stop Recording button. All captured data is automatically uploaded to Kernel Cloud for processing and analysis. If you are done recording datasets, there are important steps to follow. 


To end a recording and remove the headset:

  1. If necessary, click the Stop Recording button on the Portal Flow UI.  
  2. Click Turn Lasers OFF.

    Ensure the lasers are OFF before removing the headset from a participant. 
  3.  Remove the headset according to Removing the DevKit from a participant or Removing the Flow2 Headset from the participant.
NOTE:
Note that if you try to stop the recording before a task event is received that indicates the end of the experiment, you will see a warning at the top of the screen and receive a warning popup.
