Conduit is a free and open source Grasshopper plugin that enables designers to create live data visualizations within the Rhinoceros 3D viewport. You can use Conduit to create interactive data visualizations that sit on top of your Rhino viewport in a Heads Up Display.
To use it, first navigate to the Proving Ground tab in your Grasshopper components menu, pictured below. These components can be used to create a layout by setting a viewport boundary, subdividing the display area into a series of tiles, and populating the tiles with charting elements and text.
Charts can be defined with values that are being generated from your parametric models or imported data, and users can customize their appearance to create information-rich graphics.
