Firefly

Firefly offers a set of comprehensive software tools dedicated to bridging the gap between Grasshopper, (a free plug-in for Rhino) the Arduino microcontroller and other input/output devices. It allows near real-time data flow between the digital and physical worlds – enabling the possibility to explore virtual and physical prototypes with unprecedented fluidity.

Which plugin do you recommend in Grasshopper or other program to work with in measuring visual connection in space?

Do you think that SPACE SYNTAX can be helpful and do you recommend other plugin?

    We use SDNA plugin in QGIS for measuring the connectivity of urban networks and then import the results into Grasshopper for visualisation. That doesn't have much to do with "visual connection", rather spatial configuration of links.
    If you're interested in playing with isovists then DeCodingSpaces Toolbox should help. I haven't used it myself yet, but there are some video tutorials avaialable online.

      They might be helpful for urban network but do you think that they work for interior space like atrium?
