[Rhythmotest, Mnemotest, Binatest--a family of microprocessors for studying higher nervous activity in man]

The design of outfits for analysis and parametrization of the fundamental mechanisms and functions of the higher nervous activity (HNA) is one of the efficient approaches to solving problems of medicine equipment with technical facilities of deriving objective data on the CNS status of man. With this purpose in view, "Rhythmotest", "Mnemotest" and "Binatest" outfits unified in terms of methodology and engineering have been devised. Each of the outfits is a functional combined system that permits analyzing a definite mechanism of the HNA as a totality of its basic manifestations with the aid of different methods. "Rhythmotest" makes it possible to examine the mechanisms of assimilation and reproduction of rhythmic irritants, "Mnemotest" the mechanisms of memory and visual perception, and "Binatest" the mechanisms of making a decision. The outfits may be widely used in solving research and applied problems.
