| If light is treated as a signal and the eye and brain of a human is a sensor and interpreter of the signal. From sampling theory (Nyquist and Shannon) to represent a signal exactly as it is - its necessary to at least sample at twice the frequency (usually higher than this) Although it *is* possible to break with this traditional thought! Is this a valid question?? How fast does the human eye/brain system sample light?? Regards Setanta |

The human eye cannot exceed the Nyquist limit, but the eye is connected to a brain which can imagine all kinds of things stimulated through the eye. 1/30th of a second is about the limit of the eye/brain's ability to image. Longer is better. |
