Re: Tulip visualization of NM Atoms

 

Doh, yeah, I realised that it wasn't OS after I'd posted it.

It's definitely close to what I was envisioning for an AtomSpace
navigator, and it mentions having a very configurable interface.
Unfortunately it can only display a few hundred nodes currently, so
it's not currently quick enough for the expected number of atoms we'll
be dealing with regularly.

If nothing else it's good benchmark/comparison to what can be created
for OpenCog.
