PNG supports animation only via unofficial extensions (see the section on animation, above). PNG images are less widely supported by older browsers.
The term quad buffering is the use of double buffering for each of the left and right eye images in stereoscopic implementations, thus four buffers total (if triple buffering was used then there would be six buffers). The command to swap or copy the buffer typically applies to both pairs at once, so at no time does one eye see an older image ...
This image shows a partially full buffer with Length = 7: This image shows a full buffer with four elements (numbers 1 through 4) having been overwritten: In the beginning the indexes end and start are set to 0. The circular buffer write operation writes an element to the end index position and the end index is incremented to the next buffer ...
