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.
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.
CCFL backlights are used on larger displays such as computer monitors, and are typically white in color; these also require the use of an inverter and diffuser. Incandescent backlighting was used by early LCD panels to achieve high brightness, [8] [9] but the limited life and excess heat produced by incandescent bulbs were severe limitations ...
An LCD technology is dynamic contrast (DC), also called advanced contrast ratio (ACR), and smart contrast ratio (SCR [4]) and various other designations.When there is a need to display a dark image, a display that supports dynamic contrast underpowers the backlight lamp (or decreases the aperture of the projector's lens using an iris), but proportionately amplifies the transmission through the ...
The highlights—the brightest parts of an image—can be brighter, more colorful, and more detailed. [2] The larger capacity for brightness can be used to increase the brightness of small areas without increasing the overall image's brightness, resulting in, for example, bright reflections from shiny objects, bright stars in a dark night scene, and bright and colorful light-emissive objects ...
[23] [24] The HDR display must have either a peak brightness of over 1000 cd/m 2 and a black level less than 0.05 cd/m 2 (a contrast ratio of at least 20,000:1) or a peak brightness of over 540 cd/m 2 and a black level less than 0.0005 cd/m 2 (a contrast ratio of at least 1,080,000:1).
The OLPC XO (formerly known as $100 Laptop, [2] Children's Machine, [3] 2B1 [4]) is a low cost laptop computer intended to be distributed to children in developing countries around the world, [5] to provide them with access to knowledge, and opportunities to "explore, experiment and express themselves" (constructionist learning).

However, the lower refresh rate of 50 Hz introduces more flicker, so sets that use digital technology to double the refresh rate to 100 Hz are now very popular. (see Broadcast television systems ) Another difference between 50 Hz and 60 Hz standards is the way motion pictures (film sources as opposed to video camera sources) are transferred or ...
