Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0710574A2] The grid of parallel lines is generated with the aid of computer graphics giving a specific ratio of the line width (lo) to the periodicity (do). The background thus created is then varied by respacing in accordance with a modulation function having preselected parameters. Finally the line width is adjusted so that its ratio to the interline spacing reverts to the original value. The initially straight lines may also become curved and a pseudo-relief image may be created by erasure of those parts of the lines which lie within its contours.
