SciChart for Android is a feature-rich and powerful OpenGLES 2D and 3D chart component for scientific, medical, financial and enterprise applications. It enables developers to create stunning data‑visualization apps in Java or Kotlin with real-time performance and the ability to process millions of data points interactively. Designed to scale for the most complex visualization requirements, SciChart Android offers instant chart start‑up times, low memory and CPU usage, and smooth interactivity even on mobile devices. The library includes a comprehensive collection of popular Android 2D charts such as line charts, scatter charts, column charts, mountain/area charts, candlestick charts, OHLC charts, error bars, bubble charts, heatmaps, pie and donut charts, nested charts, stacked column, stacked bar, stacked mountain charts, fan charts, impulse (stem) charts, point‑line charts, digital (step) line, digital mountain and digital band charts. SciChart Android also offers an extensive suite of 3D chart types including 3D bubble charts, cylindroid charts, ellipsoid charts, point‑cloud charts, point‑line charts, polar charts, scatter charts, waterfall charts, sparse and uniform column and impulse series, free surface 3D charts, uniform mesh charts, surface mesh charts with floor/ceiling and contour support, and palette‑provider‑based 3D surfaces. Designed for complex Android visualization needs, SciChart features extreme real‑time performance, unlimited axes, advanced zooming/panning, rich tooltips, interactive cursors, high‑performance animations, financial chart features and linked‑chart dashboards. Its GPU‑accelerated rendering engine allows millions of data points to be visualized while maintaining interactivity. SciChart’s Chart Modifier API provides rich touch interaction including drag‑to‑pan, axis-dragging to scale, pinch‑to‑zoom, tap tooltips and customizable gestures. With powerful annotation APIs, developers can overlay lines, text, watermarks, boxes, markers, and draggable threshold indicators to highlight important data points. For 3D visualization, SciChart Android enables next‑generation interactions including tap-to-select, data‑point and series selection, hit testing, 3D tooltips and intuitive navigation via pinch, tap, drag and pan. Real-time 3D scientific surfaces can be rendered using the Visual Xccelerator 3D engine with tens of thousands of mesh cells. SciChart’s Theme Manager includes eight built-in themes with full customization capabilities. The PaletteProvider API enables per‑point coloring based on data values. The API is fully extensible via Axis TextFormatting/LabelProvider, Custom Series API and ChartModifier API, allowing developers to create entirely customized chart types and behaviors. Multiple axis types—including numeric, logarithmic, date and category date axes—support advanced scientific and financial use cases. Category Date Axes allow stock charts that collapse weekend or overnight gaps. Multi‑pane stock charts and indicator panels are supported through the flexible layout system. SciChart also enables linking multiple charts so they zoom, pan or update tooltips in sync, making it ideal for real‑time dashboards displaying multiple data feeds.
