Abstract

Image quality in refresh computer graphics is degraded when the image is in motion but not being moved across the screen once with each refresh. Multiple images, reversed apparent movement, jerky motion, and erratic motion can be the result.These problems were faced during the construction of GRIP-75, a vector graphics molecular modeling system.
