Performers:

I have a task to create scanline smear, that is, imagine a video camera
panning so quickly that by the time the bottom scanline is imaged, the
camera's heading is not close to when the top scanline was imaged. I
am not interested in the scanline compression/expansion that also may
happen, just the effect between scanlines.

Solutions I've thought of:
- create a channel for each scanline and run the app at 240X (yikes!)
- create a slightly larger image, then shift the pixels manually with
  glReadPixels() et.al.
- create a slightly larger image, and texture map it to a quad and
  stretch the quad along diagonally opposite corners in proportion to
  the speed of the pan.

Has anyone done something like this before? I'd really like to have
it run 60Hz on my iR, if possible. Convolutions are also possible,
but I'm not that well versed to know if this is in their domain.

Thanks in advance!

jan
