Line charts suffer from overplotting, while frequency-domain analysis requires specialized knowledge in signal processing. We introduce a method that bridges the gap between time-domain and frequency-domain analysis: a visual fingerprint computed through the time delay embedding of the vibration data. This fingerprint helps identify segments exhibiting periodic behavior and can be used to cluster similar segments within a vibration signal. Additionally, we demonstrate its practical application in predictive maintenance, showcasing its potential for real-world industrial use.Attribution 4.0 International LicenseCCS Concepts: Human-centered computing → Visualization techniquesHuman centered computing → Visualization techniquesVisual Fingerprints of Vibration Signals Using Time Delay Embeddings10.2312/evs.202510945 pages
