Build a detailed radar-style circular animation. Use SVG or Canvas to create a rotating line that sweeps around a circular radar screen. Add multiple expanding pulsing rings to simulate signal waves. Randomly generate 10–20 objects (targets) that appear at different positions on the radar, each with a subtle blinking or pulsing effect when detected. Display additional information next to each object such as ID, distance, and angle. Animate object appearance and disappearance as if they are entering and leaving radar range. Use glowing effects and smooth motion for a realistic look.

This radar animation creates a realistic radar display with:

  1. A rotating sweep line that moves around the radar
  2. Pulsing rings that expand outward from the center
  3. Randomly generated targets (10-20) that appear at different positions
  4. Target information displayed both on the radar and in a sidebar
  5. Smooth animations for target appearance and disappearance
  6. Highlighting effects when targets are detected by the sweep line

The animation uses Anime.js 4.0.0 for all animations, including the radar sweep, pulse rings, and target effects. The radar has a clean, modern design with a dark background and glowing elements for a realistic look.

the rotating line does not rotate, fix it
Claude 3.7 Sonnet

I've fixed the rotating line issue by:

  1. Wrapping the radar sweep line in a container group (<g id="sweep-container">)
  2. Setting the transform origin for this container in CSS
  3. Animating the rotation of the container instead of trying to update the line coordinates

Now the radar sweep line properly rotates around the center of the radar in a smooth, continuous motion. The animation uses Anime.js to handle the rotation, and the sweep line will highlight targets as it passes over them.
