Systems, methods, and devices for animation on tiled displays

A method of displaying a media object on an arrayed display system including a plurality of discrete display devices disposed adjacent one another, the method comprising:

• determining a graphical representation on at least one of the plurality of discrete display devices of a current state of a media object;
• determining a graphical representation on at least one of the plurality of discrete display devices of a future state of the media object;
• determining a path on at least one of the plurality of discrete display devices comprising a plurality of graphical representations of the media object during a change from the current state to the future state;
• and
• preparing each of the plurality of display devices overlapping with at least a portion of the path to display the media object.

A computer program stored in a computer readable media and configured to cause a computer to control the display of media objects on an arrayed display system including a plurality of display devices disposed adjacent one another, the program comprising:

• a media object control module configured to determine a graphical representation on at least one of the plurality of display devices of a current state of a media object;
• the media object control module being further configured to determine a graphical representation on at least one of the plurality of display devices of a future state of the media object;
• a path determination module configured to determine a path on at least one of the plurality of display devices comprising a plurality of graphical representations of the media object during a change from the current state to the future state;
• and
• a display preparation module configured to prepare each of the plurality of display devices overlapping with at least a portion of the path to display the media object.
