A motion picture refers to a series of still images, which when viewed in brisk succession, seem to be moving. There are two principles behind the creation of the illusion of movement of the pictures. These include; persistence of vision and displacement. Persistence of vision is a phenomenon that enables us to see the frames as a constant image without the incursion of seeing the space between the frames. Our brains form a visual impression upon seeing an image and the image loiters until the next image displaces it. Displacement, conversely, forms the illusion of movement. As the image ...

In the past, agricultural production has relied on traditional approaches to enhancing farm production. For instance, farmers in the past used conventional approach such as the migration of birds to determine the climate conditions that were approaching. According to Zhang and Pierce (2013), farmers made planting decisions based on their experiences relating to the climatic conditions. However, traditional approaches to farming have severely resulted to a decrease in output because of the different and varying conditions that are beyond the comprehension of human experiences. As such, sensors have been developed for application in crop and animal faring with the ...
