This dataset presents paired data corresponding to average blink-rate per minute of 12 subjects in an experiment of a visual motor task. They had to steer a pencil along a moving track. Each subject was tested under two conditions : a straight track and an oscillating one. Data about blink-rate during a pre-experimental resting are also available. Subjects 1 and 2 then appear less extreme than in the dataset Blink.
