  • Systems, devices, and methods for displaying visual symbols
    Patent number: 10553007
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods that display visual symbols are described. A visual symbol has a color and a linewidth. Multiple instances of the symbol are concurrently and progressively drawn, one on top of the other, in the display area of a display device. Each respective instance has a respective intermediate color. The respective intermediate colors combine to produce the color of the symbol where the respective instances overlap in the display area. Each respective instance also has a respective linewidth and the respective linewidths converge to the linewidth of the symbol as each instance is progressively drawn. A backwards progression through the same sequence is employed to regressively undraw a symbol from the display area of the display device. Computer program products comprising processor-executable instructions for performing the methods are also described.
