'''Tracers''' are the experience of trails of varying lengths and opacity being left behind moving objects in a manner that is similar to those found in long exposure photography.<ref>Visual Trails: Do the Doors of Perception Open Periodically? | http://journals.plos.org/plosbiology/article?id=10.1371/journal.pbio.1001056#pbio.1001056-Horton1</ref> These can manifest as exactly the same colour of the moving object which is producing it or can sometimes be a randomly selected colour of their own.
