Getting more out of Matplotlib with GR
summary
A Matplotlib backend is implemented on top of the GR framework to deliver real-time, streaming visualizations that mix 2D and 3D and interoperate with Qt and OpenGL. Benchmarks show GR standalone is about 10x faster, while the Matplotlib+GR backend yields only ~2–3x speedup because Python overhead dominates. The system produces live inline animations, can render movies on the fly, and a JavaScript driver for browser rendering is in progress.
