  2. Flicker (screen) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_(screen)

    The flicker of a CRT monitor can cause various symptoms in those sensitive to it such as eye strain, headaches [9] in migraine sufferers, and seizures in epileptics. [10]As the flicker is most clearly seen at the edge of our vision there is no obvious risk in using a CRT, but prolonged use can cause a sort of retinal shock where the flickering is seen even when looking away from the monitor.

    Flicker: Perceptible on lower refresh rates (60 fps and below) [27] Depends; in 2013 most LCDs used PWM to dim the backlight [28] However, since then many flicker free LCD computer monitors were introduced. [29] Does not normally occur due to a high refresh rate higher than FPS [30] Does not normally occur at 100% brightness level.

  4. Refresh rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refresh_rate

    Refresh rate. The refresh rate, also known as vertical refresh rate or vertical scan rate in reference to terminology originating with the cathode-ray tubes (CRTs), is the number of times per second that a raster-based display device displays a new image. This is independent from frame rate, which describes how many images are stored or ...

  5. Liquid-crystal display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-crystal_display

    A liquid-crystal display (LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically modulated optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers. Liquid crystals do not emit light directly [1] but instead use a backlight or reflector to produce images in color or monochrome.

  6. Flicker fusion threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_fusion_threshold

    The flicker fusion threshold, also known as critical flicker frequency or flicker fusion rate, is the frequency at which a flickering light appears steady to the average human observer. It is a concept studied in vision science, more specifically in the psychophysics of visual perception. A traditional term for "flicker fusion" is "persistence ...

  7. Moiré pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moiré_pattern

    This function average, f 3, clearly lies in the range [0,1]. Since the periodic variation A is the average of and therefore close to k 1 and k 2 , the moiré effect is distinctively demonstrated by the sinusoidal envelope "beat" function cos( Bx ) , whose periodic variation is half the difference of the periodic variations k 1 and k 2 (and ...

  8. Interlaced video - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlaced_video

    Interlaced video (also known as interlaced scan) is a technique for doubling the perceived frame rate of a video display without consuming extra bandwidth. The interlaced signal contains two fields of a video frame captured consecutively. This enhances motion perception to the viewer, and reduces flicker by taking advantage of the ...

  9. Computer monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_monitor

    High dynamic range (HDR) [13] has been implemented into high-end LCD monitors to improve grayscale accuracy. Since around the late 2000s, widescreen LCD monitors have become popular, in part due to television series, motion pictures and video games transitioning to widescreen, which makes squarer monitors unsuited to display them correctly.
