Persistence of Vison

What is "Persistence of Vision"?
Persistence of vision is when the the retina retains what it has seen for a split second, around 0.4 of a second, after the image has been removed. Using a cerise of images one after the other, all with very slight differences, the brain can be tricking into thinking that the object is moving. The brain will fill in the gaps of the movement of the object, this is how animation is created. So you are seeing what has happened and what is happening creating a continues movement.
