A Simple Demonstration for Estimating the Persistence of Vision

A Simple Demonstration for Estimating the Persistence of Vision

In the “The Science Study Series” book The Physics of Television,1 it is stated that persistence of vision lasts for about a tenth of a second. This will be a notional figure just as 25 cm is taken to be the least distance of distinct vision. Estimates range from 1/8 to 1/16 s.
