The phi phenomenon is the optical illusion of perceiving a series of still images, when viewed in rapid succession, as continuous motion. Max Wertheimer, one of the three founders of Gestalt psychology, defined this phenomenon in 1912.
 The phi phenomenon is similar to beta movement in that both cause sensation of movement. However, the phi phenomenon is an apparent movement caused by luminous impulses in sequence, whereas beta movement is an apparent movement caused by luminous stationary impulses

This occurs when the frame rate is greater than 10 to 12 separate images per second. ]]> 2018-01-09 14:54:39 UTC https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/sfeq3o6cntms/wish/219759349 Beta Movement Example playthefallen https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/sfeq3o6cntms/wish/219761630 A set of LEDs can be perceived as a snake when traversing around the edge of a frame.]]> 2018-01-09 14:58:01 UTC https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/sfeq3o6cntms/wish/219761630
