Psychophysics Toolbox Version 3 (PTB-3) is a free set of MATLAB and GNU Octave functions for vision research. It synthesizes and shows accurately controlled visual and auditory stimuli and interacts with the observer. It has at least twelve thousand active users, an active forum, and is highly cited. PTB-3 is based on the Psychophysics Toolbox Version 2 (PTB-2) but its MATLAB extensions (in C) were rewritten to be more modular and use OpenGL. Psychtoolbox is offered alongside many alternative toolboxes for programming Psychophysics and Psychology experiments, such as PsychJava for Java, or PsychoPy for Python.[citation needed]

Psychophysics Toolbox Version 3 is free sortware. Most of it is released under the MIT License, but parts of it are licensed under other open source and free software licenses.[1]
