Args: state (Union[AnimateQPUState, dict]): The state of the QPU atoms to animate. dilation_rate (float): Conversion factor from QPU time to animation time units. When `dilation_rate=1.0`, 1 μs of QPU execution time corresponds to 1 second of animation time. fps (int): Frames per second. Defaults to 30. gate_display_dilation (float, optional): Relative dilation rate for gate events. Defaults to 1. Higher values will display gate events for a longer period. save_mpeg (bool): Whether to save the animation as an MPEG file. Defaults to False. filename (str): The name of the '.mpeg' file to save. Defaults to "vqpu_animation". Ignored if `save_mpeg` is False. start_block (int): The starting block for the animation. Defaults to 0. n_blocks (int, optional): The number of blocks to animate. Defaults to None. If None, all blocks after `start_block` will be animated. Returns: matplotlib.animation.FuncAnimation: The generated animation object for the QPU state. Raises: VisualizationError: If an error occurs during the animation process.
