MULTIPLE-VALUE BAR GRAPH DISPLAYS AND METHODS OF IMPLEMENTING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bar graph display system that displays multiple measurements related directly to one another in such a way that immediate visual comparison is enabled.SOLUTION: A display 10 is configured such that each bar 14 of a bar graph depicts a numerical or other quantitative value of a parameter. Each bar 14 is provided with one or more additional indicia 16 representative of numerical values that are related to the numerical values represented by the bar(s) 14 shown in the bar graph. Each of the one or more additional indicia 16 is positioned to be superimposed over the individual bar 14 to which the additional indicia 16 correspond, and depict the relationship(s) between the value represented by the bar 14 and the value represented by the one or more additional indicia 16.
