Visualization

Visualization#

Matplotlib#

If you wish to visualize your system, make sure you define your callback function to output all necessary data. You can either plot your data using a python package such as matplotlib, or any rendering software that you choose. Note, many of the visualization scripts in the examples folders require ffmpeg (be sure to install with h264 libraries).

POVray#

For high-quality visualization, we suggest POVray. See this tutorial for examples of different ways of visualizing the system.

Rhino#

For interactive visualization and rendering, we use Rhino + Grasshopper. See this extension.

VTK#

The current version does not have VTK-export capability, although we plan to include this feature later.
