Benchmark your reaction time.

[TomsSound]

Ran across this in an article I read.
Thought a lot of you might find it fun/interesting.

QUOTE:
Human reaction times to visual inputs vary. According to a 1986 U.S. Navy study, the average F-14 fighter pilot reacted to a simple visual stimulus in an average of 223 ms. And it might not seem correct, but human beings actually react faster to sound than visual inputs. Reactions to auditory stimuli tend to be in the ~150 ms range.

So the first test is a visual reaction time

Auditory reaction time test.

I found my scores to be very close to what they said.
Visually my score is usually around 220-230.
My Audio reaction time is normally 90-140
Pretty cool.. who knew your ears talked to your brain faster than your eyes.

Top guy at 127 ms for visual? What......?

I averaged 197 ms for visual the second trial I did. My lowest for the audio one was actually 97 ms... not sure how I did that, but I was usually around 130-150 after that

248 was my best for visual. Scores were between that and 270. Best audio was 90. First try was 133, then 112 and lastly 90.


I think I have a slight disadvantage with the visual test being red-green colorblind. If they were two other colors I might be able to do better. Of course I'm just guessing and I could do equally horrible with other colors. xD

I got 229 for my best visual average (tried two sets of 5). Single click was 219


Audio average was 159, but best was 113. That was surprisingly bad.

 

[Jawneh]

242 and 230 this morning for visual. Better scores than last night. Whee!

 

[Martyr]

220-240 is my visual time.
100-120 is my audio.

Omg my visual is horrible, no wonder I can't awp.

 

[kilroyy-]

[Music]

My visual is 288.0 ms with my first run and 153.60 ms on my second run with audio. ... I'm frikkin' deaf and blind! WTF!?

 

[Sensational Snoopy]

235 was my best in visual and all fell into that range. For audio, 95 and range was between 95-103. Cool test. I think I should get better at visual reactions then!

[Veelo]

Visual my best was 209 but average 242.
Audio my best was 98 and worst was 291 because it happened as soon as I clicked start and I didn't expect it to happen so fast. Cheaters.
