>"the human eye cannot discern more than 24 fps"

As I understand it, 24fps was the point at which a convincing illusion of continuous-motion could be achieved with a traditional movie-theater projector.

It is not the maximum perceptible frame rate. In fact, I think that perceptible-frame-rate varies across the eye and is faster in peripheral vision.
