  2. Smear frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smear_frame

    Frames 2–4 are smear frames, those being elongated inbetweens. In animation, a smear frame is a frame used to simulate motion blur. Smear frames are used in between key frames. [1] This animation technique has been used since the 1940s. [1] Smear frames are used to stylistically visualize fast movement along a path of motion. [2] [3] [4]

  3. Gravity Probe B - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_Probe_B

    Previously, only two analyses of the laser-ranging data obtained by the two LAGEOS satellites, published in 1997 and 2004, claimed to have found the frame-dragging effect with an accuracy of about 20% and 10% respectively, [9] [10] [11] whereas Gravity Probe B aimed to measure the frame dragging effect to a precision of 1%. [12]

  4. Scrolling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrolling

    Scrolling may take place in discrete increments (perhaps one or a few lines of text at a time), or continuously (smooth scrolling). Frame rate is the speed at which an entire image is redisplayed. It is related to scrolling in that changes to text and image position can only happen as often as the image can be redisplayed.

  5. Parallax scrolling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallax_scrolling

    Parallax scrolling is a technique in computer graphics where background images move past the camera more slowly than foreground images, creating an illusion of depth in a 2D scene of distance. [1] The technique grew out of the multiplane camera technique used in traditional animation [ 2 ] since the 1930s.

  6. Illusory motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illusory_motion

    Billboards and other electronic signs use apparent motion to simulate moving text by flashing lights on and off as if the text is moving.. The term illusory motion, or motion illusion or apparent motion, refers to any optical illusion in which a static image appears to be moving due to the cognitive effects of interacting color contrasts, object shapes, and position. [1]

  7. Motion compensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_compensation

    The following is a simplistic illustrated explanation of how motion compensation works. Two successive frames were captured from the movie Elephants Dream.As can be seen from the images, the bottom (motion compensated) difference between two frames contains significantly less detail than the prior images, and thus compresses much better than the rest.

  8. Frame of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_of_reference

    An observational frame of reference, often referred to as a physical frame of reference, a frame of reference, or simply a frame, is a physical concept related to an observer and the observer's state of motion. Here we adopt the view expressed by Kumar and Barve: an observational frame of reference is characterized only by its state of motion. [19]

  9. Inertial frame of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_frame_of_reference

    In classical physics and special relativity, an inertial frame of reference (also called an inertial space or a Galilean reference frame) is a frame of reference in which objects exhibit inertia: they remain at rest or in uniform motion relative to the frame until acted upon by external forces. In such a frame, the laws of nature can be ...
