Wagon-Wheel Effect: Rotation Appears to Reverse

Sign in to see author· 1h ago

Curated archive entry based on published research. A rotating wheel can appear to turn backward in film or stroboscopic displays, and reversal-like percepts have also been reported under continuous light. This describes a documented perceptual effect under the cited conditions, not an independent personal report or evidence that the underlying physical measurements changed.
