Scientific data visualization in Blender.
BlenDaViz is a Python library for Blender made for scientific data visualization. It can be used directly in the Blender Python console.
- Blender 4.4 or above (including Blender 5.0)
- Python libraries: numpy, scipy, matplotlib, scikit-image
- Clone BlenDaViz:
git clone https://github.com/SimonCan/BlenDaViz.git
cd BlenDaViz- Install using Blender's Python:
/path/to/blenders/python -m pip install .To find Blender's Python path, open Blender, switch to a Python console (Shift + F4) and type:
import sys
print(sys.executable)Start Blender and open a Python console. Import the library and make a simple plot:
import blendaviz as blt
import numpy as np
z = np.linspace(0, 6*np.pi, 30)
x = 3*np.cos(z)
y = 3*np.sin(z)
pl = blt.plot(x, y, z, marker='cube', radius=0.5)Press F12 to render the scene.
A detailed guide with examples can be found in the documentation.
