title: Talbot-Plateau law
text: The Talbot-Plateau law is an experimental observation related to the psychophysics of vision. If a light flickers so rapidly that it appears as continuous, then its perceived brightness will be determined by the relative periods of light and darkness: the longer the darkness, the weaker the light. The law was first reported in a 1830 article by the Belgian scientist Joseph Plateau. This article stimulated the English photography pioneer Henry Fox Talbot to publish, in 1834, his own observations
