  2. Matrix (printing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(printing)

    Matrices created by Jean Jannon around 1640. The Garamond typeface installed with most Microsoft software is based on these designs. [1] [2] [3]In the manufacture of metal type used in letterpress printing, a matrix (from the Latin meaning womb or a female breeding animal) is the mould used to cast a letter, known as a sort. [4]

  3. Relief printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relief_printing

    The relief family of techniques includes woodcut, metalcut, wood engraving, relief etching, linocut, rubber stamp, foam printing, potato printing, and some types of collagraph. By contrast, in the intaglio family of printing, the recessed areas are printed by inking the whole matrix, then wiping the surface so that only ink in the recessed ...

  4. Dot matrix printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_matrix_printing

    Each solenoid is connected to a lever, which is connected to a long rod, which acts as a pin at the bottom of the print head. Dot matrix printing uses a print head that moves back-and-forth, or in an up-and-down motion, on the page and prints by impact, striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like the print mechanism on a ...

  5. Dot matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_matrix

    An LED matrix or LED display is a large, low-resolution form of dot-matrix display, useful both for industrial and commercial information displays as well as for hobbyist human–machine interfaces. It consists of a 2-D diode matrix with their cathodes joined in rows and their anodes joined in columns (or vice versa).

  6. Digital print matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_print_matrix

    A digital print matrix is the digital state from which a print art object can be instanced with original intent. The traditional term print matrix is the physical surface from which an image is printed, woodblock, plate, stone or screen. [1] Although these may in themselves be produced digitally they comprise a traditional (physical) matrix.

  7. List of spirals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_spirals

    For <, spiral-ring pattern; =, regular spiral; >, loose spiral. R is the distance of spiral starting point (0, R) to the center. R is the distance of spiral starting point (0, R) to the center. The calculated x and y have to be rotated backward by ( − θ {\displaystyle -\theta } ) for plotting.

  8. Ulam spiral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulam_spiral

    The Ulam spiral or prime spiral is a graphical depiction of the set of prime numbers, devised by mathematician Stanisław Ulam in 1963 and popularized in Martin Gardner's Mathematical Games column in Scientific American a short time later. [1] It is constructed by writing the positive integers in a square spiral and specially marking the prime ...

  9. Transformation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_matrix

    When A is an invertible matrix there is a matrix A −1 that represents a transformation that "undoes" A since its composition with A is the identity matrix. In some practical applications, inversion can be computed using general inversion algorithms or by performing inverse operations (that have obvious geometric interpretation, like rotating ...
