Dither

Dither is an intentionally applied form of noise used to randomize quantization error, preventing large-scale patterns such as color banding in images. Dither is routinely used in processing of both digital audio and video data, and is often one of the last stages of mastering audio to a CD.

Center image is reduced to 16 colors. Right image also 16 colors, but dithered to reduce banding effect.
