System and method for establishing a forced perspective illusion
A control system adjusts the movement speeds of object portions to maintain consistent visual angles, ensuring the forced perspective illusion is preserved as the object moves, addressing the issue of angle variation that degrades the illusion.

Abstract
A control system for establishing a forced perspective illusion includes a controller configured to control movement of a first portion of an object to cause the first portion of the object to move at a first speed with respect to an observer. The first portion of the object is positioned a first distance from the observer to establish a first visual angle. The controller is also configured to control movement of a second portion of the object to cause the second portion of the object to move at a second speed with respect to the observer. The second portion of the object is positioned a second distance from the observer, greater than the first distance, to establish a second visual angle, and the second speed is equal to the first speed multiplied by a ratio of the second visual angle to the first visual angle.
