Data Visualization projects

This topic focuses on making live sensor behavior legible on the device itself. Adafruit’s CLUE Sensor Plotter graphs readings from ten onboard or edge-pad sources on the CLUE color display, with button gestures for changing source, palette, plot style, serial output, and y-axis locking. It differs from a remote dashboard because acquisition, interaction, and plotting all run in CircuitPython on the handheld, while optional serial output can feed Mu’s plotter. Use a CircuitPython release and compiled MPY library bundle from the same major version; mismatched bundles commonly fail. The three analog edge pads cannot simultaneously serve as plot inputs and touch controls, so plan interaction before wiring sensors. Compare compatible devices, explore original projects and use the linked guides to get moving.
