Abstract
A multivariate digital camera device and method for generating pictures of datasets comprised of points in hyperspace is provided. The invention may be embodied in an input device, a computer processor, and an output device. The input device may be a keyboard, a laboratory instrument such as a mass spectrometer, a reader of computer readable medium, or a network interface device. The output device may be a monitor used in conjunction with either a 2D or 3D printer or both. The computer processor receives data from the input device and performs a series of steps to create a 2D or 3D image of the hyperspace object. The resulting image is then produced in a non-transitory medium by at least one of the output devices. The processor steps include the use of a maximum distance method in which distances and angles information from the points in the hyperspace dataset are preserved to produce a more picture-like quality.
