Math in my Roku Screensaver

— by
Hello mathematicians, puzzlers, and other curious people!
Has anyone else noticed some math in their Roku screensaver? I did! No, it’s not some special interest screensaver for mathematicians — it’s one of the regular ones, the one with the buildings and sunset sky that they call “City Stroll: Movie Magic.”
It’s also not a programmer’s favorite equation in small print on the side of a building (though there might be something like that in there too). Instead, it’s right there in the graphics, showing how math helps with animation.
That cloud, which drifts across the screen automatically, is made out of a line segment underside and some circular arcs above. It could have been made just like our cloud step for the beach pictures.
What other math can you find out there in the world?
