In mathematics, physics, and art, moiré patterns (UK: / ˈ m w ɑː r eɪ / MWAH-ray, US: / m w ɑː ˈ r eɪ / mwah-RAY, [1] French: ⓘ) or moiré fringes [2] are large-scale interference patterns that can be produced when a partially opaque ruled pattern with transparent gaps is overlaid on another similar pattern. For the moiré ...
Shape moiré is one type of moiré patterns demonstrating the phenomenon of moiré magnification. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] 1D shape moiré is the particular simplified case of 2D shape moiré. One-dimensional patterns may appear when superimposing an opaque layer containing tiny horizontal transparent lines on top of a layer containing a complex shape which ...
Ronchi rulings are typically manufactured through photolithographic deposition of metallic chromium on a substrate, which yields a precise, nearly 100% contrast pattern. For a reflective or illuminated type, dark stripes are printed on a diffusely reflecting or translucent substrate, such as a square of white ceramic material or opal glass.
Schlieren (/ ˈ ʃ l ɪər ən / SHLEER-ən; German: [ˈʃliːʁn̩] ⓘ, German for 'streaks') are optical inhomogeneities in transparent media that are not necessarily visible to the human eye. Schlieren physics developed out of the need to produce high-quality lenses devoid of such inhomogeneities.
Check (also checker, Brit: chequer, or dicing) is a pattern of modified stripes consisting of crossed horizontal and vertical lines which form squares.The pattern typically contains two colours where a single checker (that is a single square within the check pattern) is surrounded on all four sides by a checker of a different colour.
GIF animation of an Apollonian sphere packing with transparent background. Transparency in computer graphics is possible in a number of file formats.The term "transparency" is used in various ways by different people, but at its simplest there is "full transparency" i.e. something that is completely invisible.

Tracing paper is paper made to have low opacity, allowing light to pass through.It is named as such for its ability for an image to be traced onto it. The modern version of tracing paper was developed for architects and design engineers to create drawings which could be copied precisely using the diazo copy process.
