build an ellipsoide

[larson09]

Hello!

I want to build an ellipsoide....I have the three parameters which define this figure and I want to obtain three matrix (x,y,z) to wire them to a 3D plot.

Labview has a plot to buil this three matrix? Anyone has implemented this code or a similar code?

I've tried to build this ellipsoide using matlab script block, calculating the matrix at Matlab and importing them after......but I think it's much better to inside this procedure, what do you think about it?

Thank you in advance

Hi

Yes, LV offers the possibility to plot a 3d-graph.

I just implemented a simple example, which plots the half of an ellipsoid.

Hope this helps.

I would suggest that you download and install the 3D picture control . Specifically, it should not be hard to modify the "Build Sphere.vi" for your purpose.

After installing, look for "Simple 3D objects" in the example filter to get started. Good luck! 🙂

Here is one using the 3D graph. 7.0 format file.

Heres an example, using a quick hack of the "Build Sphere" from the 3D picture control. 🙂

Hi!

Thanks for your help...can you post the *.llb file in labview 7.0 version.....i can't open the file.

Thanks again!

Hi

As fas as I know you won't be able to open the file, because the 3D picture control runs with LV7.1 and above.

Hello again!

Beckto is right I can't open because LabVIEW 3D Picture Control Evaluation Software is available to Labview 7.1 and higher.....do you know if exists another labview software about 3D to use with Labview 7.0 (specially to build an plot an ellipsoid)??

Thanks!!
