The first is that human visual perception takes a series of still frames of the visual scene and that movement is perceived much like a movie.

In parallel wires carrying current in opposite directions, as here, it causes the current to concentrate on the side of the conductor adjacent to the neighboring conductor. It is caused by the magnetic field (B, green arrows) of the adjacent wire. The drawing shows the currents and magnetic field at a point in the AC cycle when the current is ...
Kneeling is a basic human position where one or both knees touch the ground. It is used as a resting position, during childbirth and as an expression of reverence and submission.

Comparison of several types of graphical projection, including elevation and plan views. To render each such picture, a ray of sight (also called a projection line, projection ray or line of sight) towards the object is chosen, which determines on the object various points of interest (for instance, the points that are visible when looking at the object along the ray of sight); those points of ...
Jansen's linkage is a planar leg mechanism designed by the kinetic sculptor Theo Jansen to generate a smooth walking motion. [1] Jansen has used his mechanism in a variety of kinetic sculptures which are known as Strandbeesten ( Dutch for "beach beasts").
Riding the cable car to Table Mountain was also the perfect place to snap beautiful photos. Other highlights include the historic Robben Island and the beaches of Camps Bay. 10. Colombia
The illusion derives from the lack of visual cues for depth. For instance, as the dancer's arms move from viewer's left to right, it is possible to view her arms passing between her body and the viewer (that is, in the foreground of the picture, in which case she would be circling counterclockwise on her right foot) and it is also possible to view her arms as passing behind the dancer's body ...
