Here, Roget wrote about his studies and his observations of how light is transmitted, based initially on looking at the world through a series of slits such as a vertical Venetian blind or palisade. Roget's work showed that an image persists in human perception for about one-sixteenth of a second, introducing one of the primary principles on which animation, film, and television are based.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Mark Roget\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1646795644\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781646795642\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cosimo Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/1824\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.05d","brand":"Peter Mark Roget","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44128273072383,"sku":"9781646795642","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a050511f-6493-4a04-a5bb-6620542498a5.jpg?v=1687457861","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/explanation-of-an-optical-deception-peter-mark-roget-9781646795642","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
