Ferret Visualisation in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own ferret-vis package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so Ferret Visualisation should look and behave as it does on a Linux PC. On Samsung DeX, Floating mode opens it as its own window beside your Android apps, and Desktop mode runs it on a full Linux desktop.

Everything runs on the device's own processor, with no GPU compute, and instruments attached over USB are not visible to Linux apps. More about science apps in Breadstick.

About Ferret Visualisation

From Debian's package description

Ferret is an interactive computer visualization and analysis environment designed to meet the needs of oceanographers and meteorologists analyzing large and complex gridded data sets. It can transparently access extensive remote Internet data bases using OPeNDAP (formerly known as DODS)

Ferret has a Mathematica-like flexibility, geophysical formatting, "intelligent" connection to its data base, memory management for very large calculations, and symmetrical processing in 4 dimensions. It can work on both gridded and non-gridded datasets.

From Debian's description of the ferret-vis package, under that package's license.
