I am writing a MATLAB code to plot an x-y coordinate matrix. The matrix is constantly updated(as fast as micro or milliseconds) by obtaining raw data from an external device. I need to update the plot as and when the matrix changes. Essentially my requirement is to generate something like a video of how the matrix evolves, by plotting it.
This is a piece of code I tried:
(b is the 2D matrix which is constantly updated)
while(<condition>)
b(i,1)=<x-coordinate> %obtained as raw data from external device
b(i,2)=<y-coordinate> %obtained as raw data from external device
scatter(b(:,1),b(:,2));
end
The problem here is that the b matrix receives values at such a fast rate that, the scatter() function lags while plotting.
How do I get a smooth dynamic plot of the constantly updated matrix?
Thanks!
