Override Matrix

A command matrix of cells receives sequenced overrides, propagates status through neighboring nodes and yields locally to pointer intervention.

• Hero backdrops
• Section transitions
• Ambient product moments

• Cell state propagates through deterministic neighbors
• Pointer override takes priority then decays into the sequence
• Labels preserve state meaning beyond color
• A component-specific renderer and control contract—not a palette swap of another release
• Compact and full previews share one visibility-aware production renderer

Adaptive sampling, capped DPR and visibility-based suspension keep the renderer predictable. Test density on low-power mobile hardware before increasing it.

Pointer and touch coordinates are container-scoped; offscreen renderers stop work and pixel ratio is capped.

The visual canvas is decorative by default. Pair it with a semantic heading or description, and reduced motion holds a stable rendered frame.
