You are hear to argue about aviation discussions and I understand completly why you do it. It is because you have some psycological need to argue and if you did it the way you do here you would get your ass beat. |

Spinner strobing as a "Bird Strike Countermeasure"
There are many real life environments where you might see stroboscopic
effects without there being a flashing lamp. The optical 'opposite' like when you've seen wheels seem to move backwards is if your line of sight can be mechanically inturrupted somehow, or even systematiclly vibrated or jarred. Coming up on a truck, for example, if your view of the front wheel is influenced by the lug nuts on an aft wheel, can offer that impression. A badly out of balance wheel on your car, moving your head at the right frequency, can do the same thing. There are probably other circumstances as well, but I can't at the moment think of one where steady state viewing of a rotating wheel or the like without something like a pseudo shutter influencing your vision would cause it. So no, your vision is not defective. Or more correctly, it may be defective, but not because of what you've noted in your post! |

Wikipedia usually quotes, at best, a number of sources, which may or may not be reliable, be they scientific papers or not. Ok, I'll rephrase that so even you can understand it: "This particular Wikipedia article quotes multiple scientific papers, all of which prove that you're talking out your ass. So far, all you've offered in rebuttal is your own proven track record of being wrong about everything to do with everything, and your own failed and pathetic life." -- Paul Tomblin http://blog.xcski.com/ I tried staying in during a fire alarm some years ago. Unfortunately the fire warden wouldn't accept 'A real hacker goes down with his newsfeed' as an excuse. -- Peter Gutman |

Then I looked up and book marked the page and and then sent a link to my wife and when I looked back she was CW. And just now I popped back over and she is still CW. HaHa! I can make her do the "Twist", but it makes my eyes hurt... |

... Yes - I have a name writes: I'm sure I've seen wheels on cars that appear to be moving backwards. Are my eyes defective? No, but your memory is imperfect. You've never seen that in real life, only on TV and in films, or under stroboscopic lighting. I saw it again today driving to work. |

I looked at first and saw CCW and after a while, I looked at the foot and saw CW and scan upwards and still see CW... But if I look away and back at the top, I see CCW again. -- Jim in NC |

"cavelamb himself" wrote in message ... So, which way is the naked lady spinning? http://www.sonnyradio.com/spinninglady.html Interesting. I kept seeing her CW, and tried it several times, and was truly beginning to wonder. But then suddenly she switched. At first it seemed to be a function of time with me, but then I tried an experiment base on the angry face example. I put my thumb up half way between the screen and my eye, and had much better luck switching her back and forth. Seems depth of field or focal point seems to have a big effect with me. See if it works for you. |

In rec.aviation.piloting Harry K wrote: snip Harry K- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - After thinking that over... It gets worse. There will be multiple rpm that will show the effect under strobe conditions. With a 2 blade prop it can be sychronizing every 1/2 rev. 3-blade prop every 1/3 or 2/3 rev, etc. in addition to synching on the harmonics. It isn't that bad. Synchronization only occurs on integral fractions and engine RPM is usually 1000 and about 2700 RPM so the possibilities are limited. For a 2 bladed prop: 7200/2= 3600 - 1800 RPM 7200/3= 2400 - 2400 RPM and 1200 RPM 7200/4= 1800 - 1800 RPM and 900 RPM etc. I leave it to someone else to show how many blades you see at each RPM. -- Jim Pennino Since the prop appears stationary, you would see all the blades. Yes, but how many virtual blades will you see? Simple example: You are illuminating a 2 bladed prop running at 1000 RPM with a strobe light pulsing at 4000 pulses per minute. In the time between pulses, the prop makes 1/4 of a turn. The prop is therefor lite up every 1/4 turn and it appears as though the prop has 4 blades. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Nope. The prop appears stationary and you see only the two. What you see is the complete image (frame), not a composite of 4 'frames'. Harry K |
