Perception of Movement: Stroboscopic Motion

The brain will perceive continuous movement in a rapid series of slightly varied images.  The motion between each image is constructed in our minds.

When a flip book is flipped, the previous image is replaced by another image that is a slightly altered version of the first.  In our minds this creates a "motion picture".  The brain sees these images as one rather than separate entities.
