3D character rolling animation with realistic rotation transforms for React applications.

Characters roll in place with satisfying 3D physics, like mechanical departure boards at train stations. Each character performs a rotateX animation—the current character flips up and away while the new character rolls in from below. Uses CSS perspective and backface-hidden for realistic 3D depth. Supports scroll-triggered animation via intersection observer, with staggered timing that creates a wave effect across the text. Built with Motion for React. Perfect for hero text reveals, loading states, or anywhere needing that satisfying mechanical flip aesthetic.
