説明文
Today’s Doodle celebrates the Belgian 1physicist Joseph Antoine Ferdinand Plateau, whose research on2 visual perception inspired him to invent a device he called the3 phénakistiscope, which led to the birth of cinema by creating the illusion of a moving image. Inspired by the 4mesmerizing animated discs, the animated Doodle art was made to reflect Plateau’s style, with different imagery and themes in them on different device platforms.
Born in Brussels on this day in 1801, Plateau was the son of an accomplished artist who specialized in painting flowers. After studying law, young Plateau became one of the best-known Belgian scientists of the nineteenth century, remembered for his study of physiological optics, particularly the effect of light and color on the human 5retina.
Plateau’s doctoral 6dissertation detailed how images form on the retina, noting their exact duration, color, and intensity. Based on these conclusions, he was able to create a stroboscopic device in 1832, fitted with two discs that7 rotated in opposite directions. One disc was filled with small windows, evenly spaced in a circle, while the other had a series of pictures of a dancer. When both discs turned at exactly the right speed, the images seemed to merge, creating the illusion of a dancer in motion.
Though Plateau8 lost his vision later in life, he continued to have a productive career in science even after becoming blind, working as a professor of experimental physics at Ghent University with the help of colleagues that included his son Felix Plateau and his son-in-law Gustaaf Van der Mensbrugghe.
Happy Birthday, Joseph Plateau!

ジョゼフ・プラトーは物理学者。
フェナキストスコープというアニメーション機械を作ったことで知られています。
現在の映画の元を作ったとも言えます。

最後失明したことが書かれていますが、これは太陽を25秒間見たからだそう。
太陽を直接見るのは危険です。
