Hello,

I'd like see Brownian motion function added to collection of available noises (Perlin and Simplex) in Make Gradient Noise node.

Brownian motion seems organic, I find it looking better than Perlin/Simples for moving objects on x, y, z axes.

Thanks!

So you want to move objects

So you want to move objects in paths like this, right? (source: Sullivan.t.j, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=2249027)

That would not be very difficult, but I think it would be a separate node from Make Gradient Noise since it's a different kind of noise and probably needs different inputs.

I've attached a rough simulation of Brownian motion in 1 dimension if you want to use it before this feature request is implemented.

Yes, that's the function. I

Yes, that's the function. I've checked your examples, thanks. I'm looking for more smooth outputs. In TouchDesigner implementation there's "number of integrals" parameter, when I set it to 2 I'm getting a nice fluid moves, that are giving the most natural look for things likes camera position.
