Figure B shows how the events from the Raw data are matched to the new timestamp grid in the resampled data. t0 to t5 are the original timestamps from the Raw Data, r0 to r8 (red) the newly created timestamps of the resampled data. As you can see, the actual slider values for both participants at every resampled timestamp is stored in the database. Therefore, one can perform calculations on the resampled data that are not possible with the Raw data, e.g. the calculation of mean values for every moment in the new timestamp grid. If there are 'several' raw events within a time grid interval, only either the first or the last of the values is taken over into the resampled data, the rest is discarded. This 'downsampling' is therefore inevitably always associated with a certain loss of information. The downsampling mode can be set in the emoTouch resample dialogue.
