How a TV Works in Slow Motion - The Slow Mo Guys

The video explores how TVs create the illusion of motion and color. It begins with an introduction to slow motion and the illusion of movement on screens. The presenter explains frame rates in films and games, and how CRT TVs display images using scanlines. The video then compares LCD and OLED technologies, highlighting their differences in pixel illumination and color representation. The presenter uses high-speed footage to demonstrate these concepts, providing a detailed look at how screens work at a microscopic level.

How does a TV create the illusion of movement?

• By changing colors rapidly

• By displaying several still images very quickly

• By showing a single image continuously

• By using a rotating mechanism

What is the frame rate of a typical film?
