Dynamism is crucial for digital signage, where dynamic content animations surpass pre-rendered video animations. In Disign, two types of animations are key: transition animations and element animations. Transition animations smooth the switch between elements, while element animations enhance individual elements with captivating visual effects. These animations improve user interaction and interface ergonomics.

We have upgraded Disign’s animation rendering engine for enhanced performance. Now, 60 frames per second (fps) are achieved using advanced technologies such as Web Workers, sandboxed iframes, WebAssembly (WASM), and caching. The Web Animation API replaces the old engine, offloading animation rendering to the GPU and allowing the CPU to focus on orchestration. The result is smoother and more efficient animations, even under high loads on Disign.
