This view allows a user to input any function and MathTrax will automatically display it. Alternately, you can choose a sample equation provided in the pull down menu in the upper left corner.
Users can fine tune the draw distances or zoom in and out.
Audio Visualization
MathTrax has the ability to sound out the graph being drawn to take understanding one step higher.
For example, if a graph line crosses the same axis twice the auditory visualization will indicate that activity.
Audio playback provides a way to "see" what we would normally not be able to. This particular feature is of great use to the vision impaired community.
Import Data
MathTrax can import data from an outside source. For example, you can import rocket simulations and visualize acceleration, drag, range, altitude, flight angles, and velocity.
MathTrax is developed at NASA Johnson Space Center by principal investigator Dr. Robert Shelton and engineers Dan Dexter, Terry Hodgson and Stephanie Smith.
