For magnet levitation project I am dumping data to a csv on a rpi and then reading it over ssh onto matplotlib on my desktop. It works but it choppy. Probably because of the ssh.

Could I drop rerun into this to improve my monitoring?

Yes! Rerun can definitely make your life a lot easier!

Rerun natively supports the server and the viewer being on different devices (https://rerun.io/docs/reference/sdk/operating-modes). In your case, in the script you are dumping data into csv, I'd add the relevant lines to log data to rerun.

On the desktop side, you can spawn a viewer that can listen to the stream and visualize it.

Matplotlib can generate GIF and WEBM (and .mp4) animations, but not realtime.

ManimCE might work in notebooks, but IDK about realtime
