continuous motion
Never stopping travel
Continuous motion describes movement that proceeds without interruption or pause.
In mechanics and engineering, it refers to machinery designed to operate in an unbroken cycle rather than stopping and starting: The conveyor belt maintains continuous motion throughout the shift.
In film and animation, continuous motion creates the illusion of seamless movement through rapidly sequenced frames.
