BORIS - Behavioral Observation Research Interactive Software
Project description
BORIS is an easy-to-use event logging software for video/audio coding or live observations.
BORIS is a free and open-source software available for GNU/Linux and Windows. You can not longer run BORIS natively on MacOS (since v.8). Some alternatives to run the last version of BORIS are available, see BORIS on MacOS.
It provides also some analysis tools like time budget and some plotting functions.
