how to draw 4 D line plot (not a scatter plot) on MATLAB, with two such curves on same 4 D space

Hello everyone,

I am looking at making a 4 D line plot. I found a link on how to make a scatter plot here https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/visualize/visualizing-four-dimensional-data.html#Visualizing4DExample-5. But i am unable to get a line plot for the same.

My data is as below; A and B are two arrays with "x,y,z,time" in the four respective columns 1,2,3,4.

A = [
34.02	        146.88	125.452	0.40036
33.804	142.992	125.452	0.80072
33.588	140.94	125.468	1.20108
32.94	        137.7	125.463	1.60144
33.372	135.54	125.398	2.0018
34.344	132.3	125.38	2.40216
35.316	129.384	125.348	2.80252
35.1	        127.008	125.346	3.20288
35.208	124.524	125.346	3.60324
35.856	121.932	125.356	4.0036
]

B = [
33.81855901	143.1587554	125.402	0.80072
33.67937179	141.0413155	125.418	1.20108
33.04378294	137.7898625	125.513	1.60144
33.41107715	135.658574	125.398	2.0018
34.36013364	132.3528975	125.48	2.40216
35.43396598	129.4757853	125.398	2.80252
35.11838456	127.152052	125.396	3.20288
35.33127133	124.6252584	125.396	3.60324
35.93352491	121.9982298	125.356	4.0036
] 

What I would like to do is draw both A and B side by side in the same 4D plot (x,y,z). A and B must appear as a line plot and not a scatter plot. Also the "time" column must appear as a colour coded 4th dimension in both A and B in same plot.

It would be wonderful if someone could give me few pointers for this.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi,

It isn't very clear on how should "time" column appear as a colour coded 4th dimension after you have already plotted (x,y,z).

Do you mean it is the 4th dimension for the plot?
