An algorithm is presented which provides a convincing animated visual illusion of a pack of playing cards on the bit‐mapped screen of a high‐performance personal computer. The technique is generally applicable to any display task involving the generation and manipulation of a number of overlapping rectangles, for example the ‘desktop model’ for integrated interactive systems.
