The Flash-Lag Illusion

By Dr. Meghna C Rao
Inspired by the work of David Eagleman, based on The Brain and The Now | David Eagleman

The Flash-Lag Illusion is a perceptual phenomenon where a moving object appears to lag behind a momentarily flashed object. This illusion challenges our perception of motion and raises questions about how the brain processes visual information. It has been studied extensively in the field of neuroscience and contributes to our understanding of visual perception and the limitations of our visual system.
