Morphing technology

[attachment=16008]

Morphing
Morphing is a special effect in motion pictures and animations that changes (or morph) one image into another through a seamless transition. It is an image processing technique used for the metamorphosis from one image to another. The idea is to get a sequence of intermediate images which when put together with the original images would represent the change from one image to other.

Tweening
Tweening means to insert between other things or parts, or to estimate values of a function between two known values.
To interpolate, according to Webster, means to insert between other things or parts, or to estimate values of a function between two known values. Note that we mean exactly the same by tweening


Animation
To animate is, literally, bring life .of course, it is not always life matters! Animation,therefore,is concerned with the process , typically computer algorithms to immolate time –varying visual effects of motion , safe , color ,texture and so on. It can be implemented both in hardware and software.



Translation-:
It is a method of shifting an image pixel .A translation is applied to an object by repositioning it along a straight line path from one coordinate location to other .We translate a two dimensional point by adding translation distances, tx and ty to the original position(x, y) to move the point to a new position (x’, y’).


Scaling-:
It is a method of squeezing and stretching an image pixel. It is used to alter the size of an object. This operation is carried out for polygons by multiplying the coordinate values (x, y) of each vertex by scaling factors sx and sy to produce the transformed coordinates (x’, y’) .Scaling factors sx and sy scales the object in x-direction and y-direction respectively.
