Apple introduces the watchOS 10 Snoopy dial: 148unique animations, rotating 6 degrees per minute

CTOnews.com, September 20 (Xinhua)-- Apple released the official version of its watchOS 10 system yesterday. One of the most noteworthy improvements is the introduction of the Snoopy dial. Engineers such as Gary Butcher, a designer of Apple's man-machine interface, recently spoke to GQ media and revealed many details of the design of the dial.

Paige Braddock, chief creative officer of Charles M Schulz Creative Associates, said that after meeting with the Apple Apple Watch team after the outbreak, the final plan was to produce 148 unique animations, depending on the time of day, local weather and activities.

While the user is swimming, Snoopy will put on his diving gear and float across your watch screen. When night comes, he howls at the moon and calculates the length of the entire animation for more than 12 minutes.

Apple engineers have created an overall scene layout engine that rotates certain clips 6 degrees per minute, and a Snoopy decision engine that calculates the best time to show them without repeating them too much.
