LightningChart JS Audio visualization showcase
The audio data is extracted in realtime using Web Audio API's. The Web Audio API has an .createAnalyser() method that can be used to create a new AnalyzerNode. The AnalyzerNode has methods to get time-domain data (waveform) and frequency data which is data from Fast Fourier transform on the audio signal. The time-domain data is shown as is on the Time Domain chart. That same data is also pushed to the Waveform history chart. This chart displays the last 1 million samples of the audio input. The last chart, Spectrum, is used to display three different series.
- Spectrum of the latest samples.
- Maximum frequencies seen.
- Decaying frequency history.

Javascript High-Performance WebGL Charts
LightningChart JS is a WebGL based, cross-platform charting library that has been developed for delivering an outstanding performance of your charts which ensures high refresh rates and smooth animations of your application. It features accessible API documentation, extensive functionality and an innovative dashboard control. LightningChart JS chart library combines incredible speed with sturdy load capacity.
Optimal for demanding industries like engineering, healthcare engineering & medical devices, industrial process control and trading.
Dashboard
Makes it easy and convenient to manage dozens of charts, legend boxes, buttons, check boxes and other UI elements. Resource-efficient rendering of all charts in one GPU scene also makes resizing columns and rows very fast.
Animations
Exceptionally powerful rendering ensures smooth animations exceeding all industry standards in amount of data per chart. Intuitive touch screen interactivity with zooming, panning, moving data cursors and so on.
WebGL rendering
GPU acceleration and WebGL rendering ensure that your device’s graphics processor is utilized efficiently, which results in high refresh rates and an outstanding execution performance.
Server side rendering
LightningChart JS supports Server side rendering. Server side rendering can be used with our headless package available in npm. Use our charts in a server application to produce high-quality chart images.
