unusual facts about Temporal anti-aliasing


Temporal anti-aliasing

In cel animation, animators can either add motion lines or create an object trail to give the impression of movement.


Aliasing

Sinusoids are an important type of periodic function, because realistic signals are often modeled as the summation of many sinusoids of different frequencies and different amplitudes (with a Fourier series or transform).

The bandlimited sawtooths are synthesized from the sawtooth waveform's Fourier series such that no harmonics above the Nyquist frequency are present.

Consolas

The font hinting is correspondingly ClearType-specific, and as a result the font is highly aliased when used with ClearType switched off.

First-person shooter engine

The Radeon 9700 demonstrated that anti-aliasing (AA) and/or anisotropic filtering (AF) could be fully usable options, even in the newest and most demanding titles at the time, and resulted in the widespread acceptance of AA and AF as standard features.

FVWM

Xft2 font support with anti-aliasing, drop shadows of any size, at any offset and at any direction, text rotation.

Infrared cut-off filter

Removal of factory filters increases sensitivity to such targets, and may also increase sharpness, as such filters may also include antialiasing filters.

Jagged Edge

Jaggies, the informal name for aliasing artifacts in raster images

Jr. Pac-Man

The game also contains several purely cosmetic changes from Pac-Man: It features a lower-case anti-aliased font for scores and game text, and Clyde has been replaced by a third orange ghost named Tim.

Lost in Shadow

Writing for MSN, Kristan Reed praised the game as "an outside bet for Game of the Year", with his only criticisms being the difficulty level and lack of anti-aliasing.

Zmodeler

This method, however, does affect the output quality because no post-processing, such as anti-aliasing, is performed on the final image.

Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner

The "Special Edition" PAL and NTSC-J versions of the game featured a variety of additions and extras to the game, including new VR Training options, added scenarios, more difficulties, a music video featuring a remixed "Beyond the Bounds" theme, improved anti-aliasing and graphical optimizations, and new Orbital Frames for Versus Mode, among other improvements to the game.
