Demonstration of experimental set up (VIDEO)

Kyushu University

Caption

In this illusion created by researchers from Kyushu University, the first flash appears to the left, and the second and third flashes are at the same spot to the right. But is this what you see when you gaze at the cross? The speed of the flashes is slightly slower than that of the illusion condition in the experiment.
