Image Animation Techniques


               Animation:  Animation  is  an  illusion  of  movement  created  by  sequentially
               playing still image frames at the rate of 15-20 frames per second.
               Toggling between image frames: We can create simple animation by changing
               images  at  display  time.  The  simplest  way  is  to  toggle  between  two  different
               images. This approach is good to indicate a "Yes"
               or "No" type situation.

               Rotating through several image frames: The animation contains several frames
               displayed  in  a  loop.  Since  the  animation  consists  of  individual  frames,  the
               playback can be paused and resumed at any time.


               Full Motion Video

               Most modem cameras use a CCD for capturing the image. HDTV video cameras
               will be all-digital, and the capture method will be significantly different based on
               the new NTSC HDTV Standard.

               Full-Motion Video Controller Requirements

               Video Capture Board Architecture: A full-motion video capture board is a
               circuit card in the computer that consists of the following components:

                   o      Video input to accept video input signals

                   o      S- Video input to accept RS 170 input
                   o      Video compression-decompression processor to handle different video

                          compression-decompression algorithms for video data
                   o      Audio compression-decompression processor to compress and
                          decompress audio data
                   o      Analog to digital converter

                   o      Digital to analog converter
                   o      Audio input for stereo audio LINE IN, CD IN.
                   o      Microphone


               A video capture board can handle a variety of different audio and video input
               signals and convert them from analog to digital or digital to analog.


               Video Channel Multiplexer: It is similar to the video grabber's video channel
               multiplexer.
