Abstract

L'invention porte sur des systèmes et sur des procédés qui sont configurés pour afficher des images fixes qui, pour un spectateur en mouvement par rapport aux images fixes, semblent animées, et dont le coût ou la complexité est moindre par comparaison à des systèmes et des procédés classiques tout en maintenant la qualité d'image et l'applicabilité. La vitesse du spectateur peut être fixe ou varier sur la longueur de l'appareil. L'appareil peut comporter un panneau arrière ayant une certaine longueur le long de la trajectoire. Des images composites peuvent être montées sur une surface du panneau arrière, chacune des images fixes ayant une largeur d'image réelle et un centre d'image. Une distance d'image à image peut séparer des centres d'image d'images adjacentes. Selon un mode de réalisation illustratif, l'appareil peut comporter des écrans d'affichage classiques, présentant des images fixes, montés de manière à ce que leurs surfaces forment le panneau arrière. En variante, les images peuvent comprendre n'importe quelle combinaison d'images numériques et analogiques. L'appareil peut également présenter une image cohérente à un spectateur fixe.
