3 years ago We will need to totally replace the current 3D interface. Here's what I'm imagining:
- Plot the agent locations (of course). Ghosting can be used for agents outside the domain
- Include text with basic information, like what we have now
- Include any immersed mesh structures and porous layers, like what we have now
- Instead of current kernel density estimation plots, include 2D projections of the KDE on three sides of the domain as psuedocolor meshes
- Try adding vorticity magnitude in 3D, but everything below a certain percent threshold value is transparent...? pyvista can compute the field gradients very efficiently through VTK. Or maybe some slices of arrows.
pyvista looks REALLY good for bringing VTK 3D visualization into Python in a manner that can actually be understood by a human. It even does mp4 rendering!
