Morphology

cycloramic = cyclorama (semi-transparent) = cyclo + orama + ic

The word is formed from the technical base 'cyclorama' plus the common adjectival suffix '-ic', but the specialized display meaning is not fully obvious to a learner who does not know the base.

Etymology

Cycloramic combines cyclo- ('circle') and panoramic ('wide view'), and it names a circular picture or display that surrounds the viewer and gives a full 360-degree view.
