PsychoPy is an open source software package, written in the Python programming language, for the generation of experiments for neuroscience and experimental psychology.
Unlike most packages it provides users with a choice of interface; generate experiments by writing Python scripts, or through a graphical interface that will generate a script for them (or by a combination of the two).
Its platform independence is achieved through the use of the wxPython widget library for the application and OpenGL for graphics calls. Psychopy is increasingly popular; it was

- PsychoPy : library and code editor
- 2002: PsychoPy was originally written by Peirce as a proof of concept - that a high-level scripting language could generate experimental stimuli in real time (existing solutions, such as Psychtoolbox, had to pre-generate movies or use CLUT animation techniques). The project was initially registered on sourceforge.net under the name "psychpy" on 14 March 2002.
- 2003-2005: this was extended to
