- The tube module could of couse be added, though it is less useful with
streamlines and again impedes the performance of the visualisation.

- It is easy for one's eyes and brain to see the images produced and associate
the red regions with (exo-)skeletal regions, and the yellow regions with soft
tissue. This is not the case; one must be careful to prevent this misinterpretation.

recorded for wide screen cinemas are converted to video and television formats.

substantialy problems due to the effect of temporal aliasing -- see Section

- This was chosen as the intended output medium is paper, where black as 1 is
much more natural. As detailed, AVS works in the opposite manner, and so the
images had to be converted (inversed, the application of a logical not operationo)
for use with AVS.

that is, odd scanlines followed by even scanlines.

- ... scanning10
- Computer graphics systems do sometimes offer interlaced scanning when displaying,
however, this is still fundamentally a frame-based system. With interlaced computer
graphics systems, the odd and even scanlines are displayed for a single frame,
that is, a single instant in time. However, with video systems, the interlaced
scanning displays the odd and even scanlines of different fields, and hence
different instants in time.

- Overscanning is partly a historical legacy, from when CRT displays couldn't
be manufactured in rectangular shape and so were round with the round edges
masked off and deliberated overscanning in these masked off areas.
