However, existing data visualization and animation tools often lack flexibility, scalability, and versatility, resulting in limited capability to fully explore and analyze flight data. To address this limitation, we introduce Flymation, a new flight trajectory visualization and animation tool. Built on the Unity3D engine, Flymation is an intuitive and interactive tool that allows users to visualize and analyze flight data in real time. Users can import data from various sources, including flight simulators and real-world data, and create customized visualizations with high-quality rendering. With Flymation, users can choose between trajectory snapshot and animation; both provide valuable insights into the behavior of the underlying autonomous system. Flymation represents an exciting step toward visualizing and interacting with large-scale data in robotics research.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.11659v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.11659v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"flymation-interactive-animation-for-flying","repo_url":"https://github.com/uzh-rpg/flymation","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
