  2. Screen burn-in - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_burn-in

    Burn-in on a monitor, when severe as in this "please wait" message, is visible even when the monitor is switched off. Screen burn-in, image burn-in, ghost image, or shadow image, is a permanent discoloration of areas on an electronic visual display such as a cathode-ray tube (CRT) in an older computer monitor or television set. It is caused by ...

  3. Image persistence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_persistence

    Unlike screen burn-in, the effects are usually temporary and often not visible without close inspection. Plasma displays experiencing severe image persistence can result in screen burn-in instead. Image persistence can occur as easily as having something remain unchanged on the screen in the same location for a duration of even 10 minutes, such ...

  4. Talk:Screen burn-in - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Screen_burn-in

    A new technique employed by a novel software utility equalizes burn-in by monitoring how the screen is used and creating an inverse burn image. By displaying the inverse burn image, previous burn-in can be equalized. This means that bright and dark patches will not be noticeable and uniform brightness across the whole screen is achieved.

  5. Cathode-ray tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode-ray_tube

    Burn-in is when images are physically "burned" into the screen of the CRT; this occurs due to degradation of the phosphors due to prolonged electron bombardment of the phosphors, and happens when a fixed image or logo is left for too long on the screen, causing it to appear as a "ghost" image or, in severe cases, also when the CRT is off.

  7. Pixel shifting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_shifting

    Some camcorders and digital microscopes employ separate color channel sensors (usually RGB = red, green, blue) sensors.. Pixel shifting may be implemented for one or more of these sensors by moving such a sensor by a fraction of a pixel (or even a whole pixel value) in both x- and y-direction.

  8. Brownout (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownout_(electricity)

    In a cathode-ray tube television, the reduced output voltage will make the screen image smaller, dimmer and fuzzier. A linear DC regulated supply will maintain the output voltage unless the brownout is severe and the input voltage drops below the drop out voltage for the regulator, at which point the output voltage will fall and high levels of ...

  9. Pillarbox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillarbox

    In order to use the entire screen area of a widescreen display (which is already significantly less than a fullscreen of equal diagonal measurement), and to prevent a reverse screen burn-in on plasma displays, the simplest alternative to pillarboxing is to crop the top and bottom.
