Matlab Demo
My favorite Matlab was demo was the one titled "Changing Transparency." I was impressed by Matlab's 3-D imaging capabilities. By altering opaqueness, shading, and the location of the lighting source, you can illustrate a 3-D object in a manner that best represents your data. And who doesn't love a realistic 3-D model of the ENTIRE Earth.
