Only in cameras.
One could paint stripes in tunnels lit by cheap LED or sodium vapor lamps (that flicker at 100/120 Hz) that appear stationary at the speed limit. I wonder how drivers would react.
I've seen this in Vancouver, Canada, between Burrard and Granville station. unfortunately they're used to display advertisements. The trains don't have drivers and are controlled remotely from a central location.
That's very much not what I meant. These stripes would be passive (just paint) and you couldn't really customize them because sodium or unsmoothed LED lights' flicker has a 50% or greater duty cycle, blurring any design beyond recognition.
What you're referring to are persistance-of-vision ad displays around passing trains in tunnels. These require active electronics and even accurately measuring the train's speeds.
They did this in San Francisco several years ago as well! It was a neat proof of concept but it didn’t stick around super long.
Badly I would assume
There is (or was, i think it's still there) one of these in the subway system in NYC
OH SHIT! Videos can play on Lemmy now?!
Only direct links(.mp4, ...etc).
Else they show as embedded(YouTube , Odysee ...etc) on the web and show as links on other Lemmy clients.
I'm not scientist, but that guy is running pretty fast.
Brilliant, I love it
Zoetropes are coooool!
I saw this on the other place earlier. Apparently the whole thing is rendered in Blender.
Given the difficulty of creating this in reality... in fact would it be actually possible to achieve this through a real moving train window?! Maybe, but you'd probably need a 1km length of images for that short clip alone. Anyhow, seemed obvious to me it was cgi. Neat though.
Ps 'Llamatron', nice choice :)
I have seen a real version of this. It was made using LCD screens in a tunnel. Displayed advertisements as you went by.
