Filming A TV Screen In Slow Motion Reveals How A TV Really Works

January 19, 2018

Most people own a television but how many of you can explain how it works?

In a new video, Gavin and Dan of "The Slow Mo Guys" have pointed their high-speed cameras towards a television screen to show how a TV fools us into believing illusions of motion and color.

"If you are reading this, you've seen a screen with your eyes. But have you REALLY seen it though? Like real proper seen it?" they wrote about their video.

In the video, Gavin examines three different televisions with his camera. When the footage is slowed down, it reveals how each individual frame forms onscreen, which happens far too quickly for our eyes to perceive. The speed of the series of still images fools our brains into seeing motion.
