Stroboscopic effect is one of the particular temporal light artefacts.In common lighting applications, the stroboscopic effect is an unwanted effect which may become visible if a person is looking at a moving or rotating object which is illuminated by a time-modulated light source.
In visual perception, flicker is a human-visible change in luminance of an illuminated surface or light source which can be due to fluctuations of the light source itself, or due to external causes such as due to rapid fluctuations in the voltage of the power supply (power-line flicker) or incompatibility with an external dimmer.
Temporal light artefacts (TLAs) are undesired effects in the visual perception of a human observer induced by temporal light modulations. Two well-known examples of such unwanted effects are flicker and stroboscopic effect. Flicker is a directly visible light modulation at relatively low frequencies (< 80 Hz) and small intensity modulation levels.
This effect is eliminated by paired lamps operating on a lead-lag ballast. Unlike a true strobe lamp, the light level drops in appreciable time and so substantial "blurring" of the moving part would be evident. Fluorescent lamps may produce flicker at the power supply frequency (50 or 60 Hz), which is noticeable by more people.
I am having an electrical problem with my 2008 Nissan Altima — all the lights on the dashboard flicker on and off at random times.
A sex offender who police said tried to "financially and emotionally manipulate" his victims has been jailed for 25 years. Stephen Gallagher, of Normandy Avenue in Colchester, was found guilty by ...
The problem of flickering exists only when using the bulb in combination with magnetic ballast (electronic ballasts produce flicker-free light). HMI bulbs (running with magnetic ballast) present an inherent problem of possibly producing light on film or video with a noticeable flicker. This is caused by the method by which the unit produces light.
Oaklynn Alexander can be heard asking again and again if she's "going to heaven today" in the background of a 911 call, at one point crying out "I don't want to!"
