Star Plots


     A star plot, also known as a radar chart, is a graphical method of displaying multivariate data in the form of a two-dimensional chart of three of more quantitive variables represented on axes starting from the same point. The relative position and angle of the axes is typically uninformative. This example of a star plot is a plot of MER IDD and other various designs. The different designs are compared in different categories, such as mass, time, trajectory completion, collision, accuracy, link deflection, and actuator saturation. The various colors are used to represent the various designs.
