    50 ms is clearly noticeable. Dan Luu mentions 2ms in the original post.

    Try in a terminal

    read a; sleep 0.02; echo $a
    

    and vary the number.

    Actually, the time resolution for visual sensations is at least 5ms and for sound it is even smaller - a drummer in s band needs to practice a lot to get the right beat.

      1. I could notice it at 0.05 (well I tried 0.05 right after 0.02, so maybe it would work at lower too)
      2. I would guess I might notice 0.02 if it were music.
