What can I build with PlotLab?

PlotLab is a set of very fast data plotting / charting / graphing components. Add sophisticated interactive graphs, charts, plots, and waterfalls to your VB.NET, C#, Visual C++, Delphi and C++ Builder applications with minimal effort.
Applications include: real time data acquisition, signal analysis, digital signal analysis, video analysis, data visualization and more.
The library includes a Chart-like Plot component (Scope), a Waterfall component and a Multi Waterfall component.
The Scope Control is a very fast multichannel plot / graph / chart component that can plot the data in logarithmic or linear modes:

The Waterfall Control is a very fast single channel Waterfall plotting component:

The Multi Waterfall Control is a very fast multi channel Waterfall plotting component:

PlotLab: for fast data plotting, charting and visulation application with almost zero lines of code!
Our component libraries come in 3 versions a VCL - Firemonkey version (for Delphi / C++ Builder / RAD Studio 10.3 or higher), an MFC compatible Visual C++ version, and a .NET 4.0 supporting Visual Studio 2005 or higher.
The RAD Studio version is a set of native VCL and Firemonkey components of which all include now the powerful Mitov Runtime.
The Visual C++ version is a set of native Visual C++ classes (components).
The NET 4.0 (4.5 and higher compatible) version is a set of managed .NET components. The .NET version has the same performance as the native versions, and supports all the Microsoft .NET languages including Visual Basic, C#, J#, F# and C++/CLI.
Due to the unique architecture of the OpenWire platform, the components are implemented the same way in Managed .NET and native Windows (32 and 64 bit) environments. The code to control a component from VB.NET, C++/CLI, C#, and J#, Visual C++ MFC, Delphi, and C++ Builder is almost identical. This allows the developers to migrate and share code between the different environments thus significantly improving the productivity.
OpenWire Libraries: for fast, complex data stream processing with almost zero lines of code!

PlotLab: Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I have to purchase PlotLab?
A: PlotLab is free for non commercial purposes. This means that you can use it for personal pleasure, hobby, or evaluation purposes. If you are student you can also use it for free for your educational needs including school projects. If you are a tutor at present you also can use it for free for your classes. However in the near future a low cost tutor license will be available, and you will have to purchase it. Your students however will not need license to use the product at class.
Q: Is PlotLab multithreading? Will it stop processing the data while I move the window with the mouse?
A: Yes. PlotLab is fully multithreaded and will not stop processing the data while the main thread is busy.
Q: Does PlotLab require any DLLs to work?
A: If you are using Delphi or C++ Builder, PlotLab does not require any DLLs to work. You can create monolithic executable that contains all that is needed. If you are using Visual C++, with the current version you will have to use the PlotLab DLL files.
