    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strafing_(video_games)

    Strafing in video games is a maneuver which involves moving a controlled character or entity sideways relative to the direction it is facing. This may be done for a variety of reasons, depending on the type of game; for example, in a first-person shooter, strafing would allow one to continue tracking and firing at an opponent while moving in another direction.

  3. Frame rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate

    Many theaters had shown silent films at 22 to 26 FPS, which is why the industry chose 24 FPS for sound film as a compromise. [11] From 1927 to 1930, as various studios updated equipment, the rate of 24 FPS became standard for 35 mm sound film. [2] At 24 FPS, the film travels through the projector at a rate of 456 millimetres (18.0 in) per second.

    Hood: Outlaws & Legends is a multiplayer action video game played from a third-person perspective.The player assumes control of an outlaw who must infiltrate a keep of an authoritarian power named the State, and compete against a rival team to steal the treasure hidden in the keep's vault. [1]

  5. Flight control modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_control_modes

    A flight control mode or flight control law is a computer software algorithm that transforms the movement of the yoke or joystick, made by an aircraft pilot, into movements of the aircraft control surfaces. The control surface movements depend on which of several modes the flight computer is in.

  6. C0 and C1 control codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C0_and_C1_control_codes

    In 1973, ECMA-35 and ISO 2022 [18] attempted to define a method so an 8-bit "extended ASCII" code could be converted to a corresponding 7-bit code, and vice versa. [19] In a 7-bit environment, the Shift Out would change the meaning of the 96 bytes 0x20 through 0x7F [a] [21] (i.e. all but the C0 control codes), to be the characters that an 8-bit environment would print if it used the same code ...

  7. Longitudinal stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longitudinal_stability

    In flight dynamics, longitudinal stability is the stability of an aircraft in the longitudinal, or pitching, plane.This characteristic is important in determining whether an aircraft pilot will be able to control the aircraft in the pitching plane without requiring excessive attention or excessive strength.

  8. Stability criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_criterion

    In control theory, and especially stability theory, a stability criterion establishes when a system is stable. A number of stability criteria are in common use: Circle criterion; Jury stability criterion; Liénard–Chipart criterion; Nyquist stability criterion; Routh–Hurwitz stability criterion; Vakhitov–Kolokolov stability criterion

  9. Nyquist stability criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist_stability_criterion

    The Nyquist plot for () = + + with s = jω.. In control theory and stability theory, the Nyquist stability criterion or Strecker–Nyquist stability criterion, independently discovered by the German electrical engineer Felix Strecker [] at Siemens in 1930 [1] [2] [3] and the Swedish-American electrical engineer Harry Nyquist at Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1932, [4] is a graphical technique ...
