An exploration of dithering and flashing

[AdamsImmersive (Morgan)]

Cool test! Here are some bits of code for preventing/reducing dither flashing FWIW:

Preventing dither flashing/flickering on moving objects by snapping to even pixels

Quantizing motions to 2-pixel increments solves the annoying flicker for 2x2 dithers (like checker and pinstripes), and reduces it for 4x4 or larger patterned dithers. The result feels much smother and nicer. It's easy to do, even after your motion is already coded—you can still use easing, the crank, or any other arbitrary method to define the motion. In case it helps anyone, here are some code examples. Do these at the last minute before rendering the change. If you quantize earlier in the …
