RoadTrip

Copyright 2013 Romain Guy http://www.curious-creature.org

RoadTrip is a sample application for Android that demonstrates how to implement several visual effects:

• Animated paths tracing
• Black & white to color conversion, used when scrolling a row of image to the left (the first image starts in B&W and turns into colors)
• Pinned scrolling, used to create a “stacked cards” effect when scrolling up and down the list
• Parallax scrolling, used to scroll the various maps at a different speed than other items
• Animated action bar opacity, as seen in Google Music

More detailed explanations can be found online.

Watch a video of the application running on a Moto X/Android 4.4.
