The light emitted by the stroboscope (See '''Figure 1.'''), can be calibrated to flash at the same speed as the transmission rate of the optical nerve. This causes an temporary interference pattern which disorientates optical transmission to the brain leading to visual hallucinations similar to effects induced by psychedelic substances. It is thought that low hallucination-inducing frequencies range between 8 to 11 Hz and high hallucination-inducing frequencies range between 19 to 25 Hz<ref>'''''The hodology of hallucinations'''.

Whilst the visual aspects of the psychedelic experience can be replicated, there is no evidence to suggest any other neurological effect occurs.
