Process Automation & Industrial Instrumentation Time-Series Line Chart

Time-series line charts help with monitoring high-frequency sensor data. With SciChart, you can render these charts with over 100 million data points in real-time with minimal latency. This helps with the effective identification of transients or faults. By using FIFO series, the software efficiently manages memory by discarding older values while maintaining a continuous live stream of telemetry. This capability allows engineers to visualize multidimensional datasets, such as pressure, temperature, and flow.

A waterfall demo chart

Test & Measurement Instrumentation High-Speed Waveform

This interactive waterfall display provides a high-fidelity visualization of signal evolution over time. By layering multiple spectral traces with coordinate offsets, the system creates a 3D perspective of the Power Spectral Density.

By interacting with the waterfall, users can instantly extract time-domain profiles for specific frequency bins or isolate instantaneous frequency slices. This supports root-cause analysis of timing jitter and spectral regrowth in complex RF environments.

This is an incredible product. First it's the best chart I've had customers compliment how great the charting parts of our application look/behave. I couldn't recommend this product anymore than I already do. SciChart really hit the mark. I wish all software products could be this easy to use and be so productive (not to mention blazing fast).

We have been coding Technical Analysis software for 16 years and during that time have tried most charting modules on the market. SciChart is by far the best, not only for features, speed and reliability, but their support has been above and beyond anything else we’ve experienced.
