The software specializes in generating 3D plots in the form of shaded surfaces, but it also offers additional visualization options such as wireframe plots and color contour maps. These flexible display methods provide researchers with enhanced control over how data is presented and analyzed.

Key Features

Shaded Surface Rendering: Create realistic 3D surfaces with shading based on light projection, making complex data easier to interpret.
 
Depth Shading: Apply color shading to the ‘Z’ axis for a more visually intuitive representation of data depth and amplitude.
 
Isometric Split Screen Views: View multiple perspectives of the same 3D image simultaneously to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the data.
 
User-Definable Color Palette: Customize color schemes to highlight specific data ranges, with the ability to store palettes in standard RGB file formats.
 
Wireframe Plots: In addition to shaded surfaces, produce clear wireframe plots for precise geometric data interpretation.
 
Full Control Over Optical Characteristics: Adjust materials’ optical properties, such as light reflectivity, to tailor the appearance of the 3D render for specific experimental needs.

Detailed Control Options

3DIsoPlot™ provides a wide array of customization tools for researchers to manipulate how their data is rendered, giving them full flexibility in creating the final output. These include:

  • Camera Controls: Adjust the rotation of the 3D image in space and reposition light sources to control how shadows and highlights interact with the surface.
  • Data Sampling: Reduce the number of data points used during rendering to speed up the process, especially helpful when working with large datasets.
  • Material Properties: Modify the optical characteristics of the surface material to influence how light interacts with the 3D plot, adjusting parameters like reflectivity and transparency.
  • Palette Editor: Load and customize color palettes to define how ‘height’ and ‘distance’ are rendered visually, ensuring the data is represented in a way that highlights key features.

Applications

3DIsoPlot™ is particularly useful for analyzing and visualizing area maps generated by BioLogic’s M470 instrument. It also supports broader applications involving scanned data and mathematical modeling, making it a valuable tool for researchers working in:

  • Nanoscale electrochemistry
  • Surface science
  • Material characterization
  • Corrosion studies
  • Battery and fuel cell research

 
By offering a wide range of visualization tools and customizable rendering options, 3DIsoPlot™ enables researchers to create detailed, highly interpretable 3D plots that support complex data analysis. Its user-friendly interface ensures that even advanced visualizations can be produced with ease, making it a versatile solution for a variety of research needs.
