Cross-Plattform 2D- & 3D-Datenvisualisierung in JavaScript – guckst du!

Zahlen und Ziffern, schwarz auf weiß, sind für sich genommen ziemlich langweilig und oftmals nur bedingt aussagekräftig. Es bedarf einer Visualisierung, um Zusammenhänge verstehen und Daten vergleichen zu können. Mit Web-Technologien stehen Ihnen hierfür mehr Möglichkeiten zur Verfügung denn je. Neben 2D-Diagrammen können Sie mithilfe von WebGL auch interaktive dreidimensionale Darstellungen plattformübergreifend realisieren – im Browser und Touch-optimiert auf mobilen Endgeräten. Christian Weyer und Christian Liebel zeigen Ihnen in dieser Session, wie Sie ansprechende 2D- und 3D-Visualisierungen Cross-Plattform implementieren und in existierende Anwendungen einbetten können.

9. DEMO SCENARIO
10. GUMMIBEARS! (Bouncing here and there and everywhere)
11. ARCHITECTURE Windows: everybody can do it ;) SignalR on Mono on Raspbian on Raspberry Pi 2 Communication: WebSockets or Server-Sent Events 2D client based on HTML5 and JavaScript 3D client based on HTML5 and JavaScript Packaging the clients as an app using Cordova
12. GOAL Visualizing real-time consumption of gummibears per region Update consumption of SouthAmerica to 13.3137317022187 Update consumption of NorthAmerica to 42.3913583840353 Update consumption of Antarctica to 83.7786154045535 Update consumption of Europe to 18.0006652489046 Update consumption of Africa to 4.14845326099586 Update consumption of Europe to 15.5524369351959 Update consumption of NorthAmerica to 19.4715459649452 Update consumption of Asia to 25.5628347470509 Update consumption of Europe to 3.95552857364278 Update consumption of SouthAmerica to 17.4139201632193 Update consumption of Antarctica to 53.6258920336672 Update consumption of Australia to 12.5058280857318
13. LET’S IMPLEMENT THE SECRET ALGORITHM…
14. 2D VISUALIZATION
15. <CANVAS> Plain bitmap for the web Content is defined by contexts Cross platform graphic manipulations High performance/Low energy consumption requestAnimationFrame
16. REQUESTANIMATIONFRAME Just in time (matches screen refresh rate) Does not execute when window is minimized or tab in the background Does not execute when browser is busy No stacking/queueing
17. BROWSER SUPPORT From http://caniuse.com/#search=canvas
18. CHARTING LIBRARIES SVG-based D3.js (open source) HighCharts (commercial) Canvas-based Chart.js (open source) ZoomCharts (commercial)
19. LIVE DEMO TOUCH-ENABLED, CROSS-PLATFORM 2D VISUALIZATION
20. LET’S BRING THIS TO ANDROID…
21. 3D VISUALIZATION
22. 3D CONTENT IN A 3D WORLD WITH 2D SCREENS scenes, cameras, rendering
23. WEBGL Web Graphics Library Hardware accelerated (GPU) New canvas rendering context webgl Proven Technology: based on OpenGL ES Can be exported from Blender and Unity
24. THREE.JS Native WebGL is complex Open-source JavaScript library High-level API abstracting WebGL (and more) Includes touch-enabled controls
25. BROWSER SUPPORT From http://caniuse.com/#search=webgl
26. MOBILE PLATFORM SUPPORT iOS 8+ Android WebView 36+ Crosswalk Windows (Phone) 8.1+
27. LIVE DEMO “If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon” — R.E.M.
28. LIVE DEMO DETAILS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
29. LET’S BRING THIS TO IOS…
30. SUMMARY Cross platform high-performance graphic manipulation 2D & 3D Hardware acceleration Supported by all major browsers and platforms Touch-enabled
