Persistence of vision

Persistence of vision is a commonly-accepted although somewhat controversial theory which states that the human eye always retains images for a fraction of a second (around 0.04 second). This means that everything we see is a subtle blend of what is happening now and what happened a fraction of a second ago. This is when the brain is tricked into believing that a series of still images are moving images.

  1. You have described the concept of Persistence of Vision, but it would have been better to have been written in your own words and not copied from:

    Also, including images or moving image sequences would have helped to support your arguments.
