JZoopraxiscope is a jQuery plugin for generating animations from static images.
JZoopraxiscope takes a wide image file with a number of frames and animates it slowly until it reaches full speed. The animation can be controlled with the minuscule API.
I see several problems with this plugin: the animation end speed is a constant (at 25fps most likely), thus limiting the number of frames you can use; also, the animation is grainy until it reaches full speed.
JZoopraxiscope is an interesting plugin, though, and it definitely has its uses.
