2. Sight and the camera
The individual parts of the eye work in a
manner similar to a camera.

3. The cornea
acts like the lens in a camera.
... helping to focus light to the back of the eye.
Lesson 3: History of Moving Images

4. The iris and pupil act
like the aperture of a camera.
Lesson 3: History of Moving Images

5. If you are outside at night,
the iris opens and gets bigger to let in
more light so you can see in the dark
Lesson 3: History of Moving Images

6. If you are outside in the bright sun,
the iris in your eye constricts and gets
smaller to let in less light
Lesson 3: History of Moving Images

7. The very back of the eye is lined with a layer
called the retina which acts very much
dddddd like the image sensor in a
ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddcamera.

Light from outside passes through the hole and
strikes a surface inside where the outside scene is
reproduced upside-down, but with color and
perspective preserved.

In place of a lens is a single small hole on one
side. Light from outside of the camera passes

hole.

11. How do images move?
• persistence of vision
• zoetropes
• beta movement
• animation through flip books
Lesson 3: History of Moving Images

12. what is persistence
of vision?
Persistence of vision is a commonly
accepted, although somewhat
controversial theory, which states that
the human eye always retains images
for a fraction of a second (around 0.04
seconds).
Lesson 3: History of Moving Images

13. This means that everything we see is a
subtle blend of what is happening now
and what happened a fraction of a
second ago.

Beta Movement is a perceptual illusion
whereby two or more still images are
combined by the brain into surmised
motion.

did it look like the ball moved to the right?
This did not actually happen, but the cognitive process of
perception links the two images in time and causality.
