Description

LightningChart Ultimate is the fastest 2D and 3D measurement, engineering and research data visualization SDK for .NET and Windows. LightningChart Ultimate is entirely GPU accelerated (Direct3D) and performance optimized data visualization control for presenting masses of data in 2D XY graph, 3D XYZ, polar and 3D pie / donut views.

Software development kit consists of the following components:

LightningChart Ultimate's graph view is especially designed for professional high-speed data acquisition software, PC-based oscilloscopes and signal analyzers, scientific research, G.I.S., medical and other real-time measurement and signal monitoring applications. The graph is optimized for high-speed sampled signal data handling with innovative CPU overhead saving techniques enabling handling of huge data point amounts, where all other chart/graph controls get delayed, frozen or crashed. 3D view makes data visualization available in freely rotatable 3D space. Data can be presented with many different series types with super-fast data processing and rendering features.

XY Graph view

Draws huge amounts of measured data as graphs in real-time, very smoothly, up to hundreds of millions of new data points / sec.

High refresh rate even with heavy load

Renders vast data sets instantly

Series types: sampled data (discrete signal), point-line, freeform point-line, areas, high-low, polygon, stock series (candle-stick), bar, band, constant line, intensity grid, intensity mesh

Geographic maps can be combined with other XY view series and objects.

Intensity series are perfect e.g. for environmental data over maps and thermal imaging. Can be rendered inside selected polygons or map regions.

Zoom, pan and rotate operations

Built-in series tracking cursors

Series and chart event marker indicators

Unlimited X axes/chart, vertical position adjust

Unlimited Y axes/chart: stacked or layered

Different X-axis real-time monitoring scrolling modes: Scrolling, sweeping, stepping, oscilloscope style level triggered

Automatic scale fitting, grids and divisions

Fast scale setting with mouse, configurable zoom and pan buttons

Logarithmic axis scales, advanced features for minimal values between 0...1

Palette-colored line series by Y value

Persistent layers - extremely fast rendering of thousands of repetitive line series without rising CPU load or memory footprint

Persistent intensity layers - heat-map coloring of repetive traces with hit-counters

3D XYZ View

Real 3D visualization

Series types: point-line, bar, surface mesh, surface grid, waterfall, mesh models

Gigantic surface sizes of over 2000x2000

Height/Toned/Point/Bitmap coloring for surfaces

3D rectangles with image fill

Contour lines and wireframing for surfaces and waterfall

Many lighting and shading options

3D models can be imported from CAD and modeling applications, as X-file

Polygons, rectangles

Perspective and orthographic 3D camera, with pre-defined setups

Zoom, pan and rotate operations, axis range adjust by mouse

Logarithmic axis scales, advanced features for minimal values between 0...1

Geographic maps & G.I.S.

Vector maps

On-line tile maps: supports street maps and satellite imagery by MapQuest/OpenStreetMaps, and weather data by WeatherBug

World, continents, specific areas

Dozens of maps

Multi-layer: land, lakes, rivers, roads, cities etc.

High/Mid/Low resolutions

Map import from ESRI shape file data

On-the-fly silent map layer replace/import for frequently updated SHP data

Polygon and vector based objects

Background images setting from satellite photos

Fast rendering

Mouse interactive objects

Several fill and style options: individual or common layer based

Many coordinate formats

Border points and other data can be accessed from objects

Digital elevation model (DEM) data can be presented with IntensityGrid (ViewXY) or IntensityGrid3D (View3D) series, with contour lines

3D models can placed in View3D

Polar view

Series types: area, point-line

Several amplitude and angle axes

Sectors

Markers

3D pies / donuts

Freely rotatable 3D visualization

Pie and donut styles

Dimension adjustment

Exploded slices

Mouse interactive

Predefined lighting schemes

General

Comprehensive user interface customization: Color themes, fonts, alpha colors, line styles, point styles, bitmaps, fills, blinking effects, anti-aliased lines

Pinch zooming and panning with touch screen

Scrollbars with 64-bit value range

Annotations for labeling and tagging any information, and to be used as a general-purpose vector drawing objects. Move, scale and rotate by mouse.

Print with print preview

Copy to clipboard and export as BMP/JPG/PNG/GIF/TIFF files. XY graph also in WMF, EMF and SVG.

Series data export/import to MS Excel as CSV

Full 64-bit support. Utilizes over 2 GB memory (in 64-bit systems).
