    Lissajous figures are patterns generated by the junction of a pair of sinusoidal waves with axes that are perpendicular to one another. Jules-Antione Lissajous studied these figures by producing sounds of different frequencies which were used to vibrate a mirror. A beam of light was then reflected from the mirror to produce trace patterns which were dependent on the frequencies.
