    For example, a 15-inch (38 cm) display whose dimensions work out to 12 inches (30.48 cm) wide by 9 inches (22.86 cm) high, capable of a maximum 1024×768 (or XGA) pixel resolution, can display around 85 PPI, or 33.46 PPCM, in both the horizontal and vertical directions. This figure is determined by dividing the width (or height) of the display ...

  3. Plan position indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_position_indicator

    A plan position indicator (PPI) is a type of radar display that represents the radar antenna in the center of the display, with the distance from it and height above ground drawn as concentric circles. As the radar antenna rotates, a radial trace on the PPI sweeps in unison with it about the center point. It is the most common type of radar ...

    The constant altitude plan position indicator, better known as CAPPI, is a radar display which gives a horizontal cross-section of data at constant altitude. It has been developed by McGill University in Montreal by the Stormy Weather Group [1] to circumvent some problems with the PPI: Altitude changing with distance to the radar.

    0.01 ms [10] to less than 1 μs, [11] but limited by phosphor decay time (around 5 ms) [12] 1–8 ms typical (according to manufacturer data), older units could be as slow as 35 ms [13] Typically less than 0.01 ms, as low as 2 μs, [10] [14] but limited by phosphor decay time (around 5 ms) Estimates varying from under 0.01 ms to as low as 1 μs.

  6. Dot pitch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_pitch

    Dot pitch (sometimes called line pitch, stripe pitch, or phosphor pitch) is a specification for a computer display, computer printer, image scanner, or other pixel-based devices that describe the distance, for example, between dots on a display screen. [1] [2] In the case of an RGB color display, the derived unit of pixel pitch is a measure of ...

    Thus, for example, a 10-point font on a Macintosh (at 72 PPI) was represented with 10 pixels (i.e., 10 PPEm), whereas a 10-point font on a Windows platform (at 96 PPI) at the same zoom level is represented with 13 pixels (i.e., Microsoft rounded 13 + 1 ⁄ 3 to 13 pixels, or 13 PPEm) – and, on a typical consumer grade monitor, would have ...

    A 1951 USAF resolution test chart is a microscopic optical resolution test device originally defined by the U.S. Air Force MIL-STD-150A standard of 1951. The design provides numerous small target shapes exhibiting a stepped assortment of precise spatial frequency specimens.

  9. PenTile matrix family - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PenTile_matrix_family

    PenTile was invented by Candice H. Brown Elliott, for which she was awarded the Society for Information Display's Otto Schade Prize in 2014. [6] The technology was licensed by the company Clairvoyante from 2000 until 2008, during which time several prototype PenTile displays were developed by a number of Asian liquid crystal display (LCD) manufacturers.
