I have an array of points (x,y,z) that I would like to animate in 3D using Mayavi (Python). I am currently using a Plot3D command to plot all of the points simultaneously (modeling the movement of a particle), but would love some help on the animation.
Thanks!
Matplotlib offers a lot of possibilities for animation. Have a look at the specific routines for animation. In particular, there's a specific example for 3D plotting.
There are quite a few tutorials on the 'web. Eg. Matplotlib Animation Tutorial and Animated 3-D Plots in Python

I want to construct an environment that is consists of many 3D polygons to represent buildings in a city and 3D moving spheres to represent moving drones.
Which of these tools is the best for this task? Matplotlib, PyOpenGL, PyPRT or Open3D.
I have tried on Matplotlib by constructing these 3D polygons with many surfaces, but that leads to a very very laggy figure when displaying it.
I want to plot 2d slices of 3d data as shown in this figure (). Is it possible to do it in python, preferably using matplotlib? I am hoping to have someone provide me with guidance, or a sample code is even better. I appreciate any help anyone can provide.
As far as I know Matplotlib so far can not handle the intersecting planes correctly.
matplotlib not displaying intersection of 3D planes correctly
Display the maximum surface in matplotlib?
You can try to use mayavi or plotly. In particular check out this link
I'm trying to make a mesh 3d plot in python using plotly. The plot is working fine but as I have read Mesh 3d plots doesn't have legend support. So there's no way I'm able to toggle the mesh 3d plot.
Is there any way I can make this functionality of toggling the mesh 3d plot in python?
I'm a beginner in Python. My aim is to create a 3D animation in which the position vector (in 3D coordinate system) would follow the trajectory of a parametrized curve as the parameter t moves from a to b. I know that matplotlib has a 3D animation toolkit but still I wonder if such work is within its capabilities.
I'd be glad to hear your opinion.
I have a script that produces real time data, is it possible to plot all of this data and show a moving curve as data is acquired using matplotlib?
Matplotlib supports animations. The easiest is to look at some of the examples.
