As an object moves in sunlight it looks smooth to your eyes, but under a blinking light you only see the motion during moments that get lit up. This is much more obvious for faster motion.
I’m not 100% certain but I think this sort of lighting triggers bad headaches for me. I get bad headaches some times, and I’ve always been pretty sure the lighting was why but I’ve only recently started confirming with my phone that all those places where I get headaches use blinking overhead lights for the entire room. More and more places around me have adopted it and it’s awful. I have tons of clips in my phone now of random locations in slow motion, many of which have these lights. I can’t walk through a store that’s using them for very long.
