tweenr: Interpolate Data for Smooth Animations
Description
In order to create smooth animation between states of data, tweening is necessary. This package provides a range of functions for creating tweened data that can be used as basis for animation. Furthermore it adds a number of vectorized interpolaters for common R data types such as numeric, date and colour.
Details
tweenr is a small collection of functions to help you in creating
intermediary representations of your data, i.e. interpolating states of data.
As such it's a great match for packages such as animate and gganimate, since
it can work directly with data.frames of data, but it also provide fast and
efficient interpolaters for numeric, date, datetime and colour that are
vectorized and thus more efficient to use than the build in interpolation
functions (mainly stats::approx() and
grDevices::colorRamp()).
The main functions for data.frames are tween_states(),
tween_elements() and tween_appear(), while the
standard interpolaters can be found at tween()
