Double Buffering
• Requires additional memory
• Allows for “instantaneous” update of screen
• Writing to buffer may not be real-time
• May be supported in hardware
• Can use more than two buffers

Motion Blur
•Sample the pixel over single frame time
•Move objects during frame time
•Blend colors
•Usually jitter the samples in time

Compositing
Z buffer: keep z values with color buffer•Compare z values at corresponding pixels•Keep all or nothing
OR compute partial coverage•Interpolate corner z values•Compare corner values for pixel and blend
Alpha ChannelCombined partial coverage and transparency

Analog Image Technology
Video (raster scan)Interlace v. progressive scanNumber of scanlines (e.g. 525, 625)Aspect ratio (e.g. 4:3, 16:9)Field rate (e.g., 59.94 Hz, 50 Hz)
FilmVarious formats (e.g. mm widths of 8, 16, 35, 65, 70)Vary by placement of sound track, performations, frameSpeeds18 fps or, more usually, 24fpsUsually doubly projected
