Abstract: The invention provides for systems, devices, and methods for displaying animations on devices with low-memory capacity or low-processing power, such as a mobile device. Animation sequences can by created using scene graphs of nodes. Nodes can be embedded nodes, collection nodes, or image nodes. Embedded nodes can be an embedded scene graph, a collection node can be a collection of nodes that reference collection of image sets, and an image node can be a reference to an image file and an affine transformation. Image sequences can be used using affine transformations. The affine transformation matrices can then be exported to an animation data file. Inclusion of affine transformation matrices with animation data files can reduce the memory required to store multiple image files and can reduce the computation power required to display animations.
