Star Plot

The above image, taken from start1.jpl.nasa.gov/caseStudies/autoTool.cfm, shows the target information and the results of four designs for a Mars Rover arm assembly at NASA. The target parameters for the arm are shown in red. This view allowed the workers to compare the designs along seven different parameters on a single graph. In some ways the graph is similar to the parallel coordinate graph, only with the coordinates sharing an origin.
