ABSTRACT:
An after-image of a ball is displayed on traces of the ball so that each gamer recognizes in which direction and at which speed the shot ball flies. A real ball30really exists in a virtual space on a screen and flies from the left to the right in the figure. After-images311to314of the real ball30are displayed at the back of the real ball30. The after-image312is displayed at a position of the real ball30before one interval (corresponding to 1/60 sec), the after-image312is displayed at a position of the real ball30before two intervals, the after-image313is displayed at a position of the real ball30before three intervals, and the after-image314is displayed at a position of the real ball30before four intervals. As the after-image is more apart from the real ball30, the degree of transparency is higher.
