  2. Optimum HDTV viewing distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimum_HDTV_viewing_distance

    DCI 4K cinema has the same number of lines as 4K UHD (the DCI 4K format is wider). The optimal distance is therefore 1.6 times the height of the screen. The best compromise with the ideal listening zone, the sweet spot, must be found; "Sound is 50 percent of the movie going experience" - George Lucas. [14] Please note!

  3. Ultra-high-definition television - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-definition...

    At some home viewing distances and current TV sizes, HD resolution is near the limits of resolution for the eye and increasing resolution to 4K has little perceptual impact, if consumers are beyond the critical distance (Lechner distance) to appreciate the differences in pixel count between 4K and HD.

  4. 1080i - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1080i

    Overall, 1080i played a crucial role in the early days of HDTV. It bridged the gap between standard-definition broadcasts and the high-definition future that would soon become the norm. While its use has diminished with the rise of 1080p and 4K resolutions, 1080i remains an important milestone in the evolution of television technology. [3]

    The difference is that whilst D1 has a 4:3 aspect ratio 960H has a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio. The extra pixels are used to form the increased area to the sides of the D1 image. The pixel density of 960H is identical to standard D1 resolution so it does not give any improvement in image quality, merely a wider aspect ratio.

  6. Display resolution standards - Wikipedia

    The resolution 3840 × 2160, sometimes referred to as 4K UHD or 4K × 2K, has a 16:9 aspect ratio and 8,294,400 pixels. It is double the size of Full HD ( 1920 × 1080 ) in both dimensions for a total of four times as many pixels, and triple the size of HD ( 1280 × 720 ) in both dimensions for a total of nine times as many pixels.

  7. Pixel density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_density

    The human eye also responds in a different way to a bright, evenly lit interactive display from how it does to prints on paper. High pixel density display technologies would make supersampled antialiasing obsolete, enable true WYSIWYG graphics and, potentially enable a practical “ paperless office ” era. [ 10 ]

  8. Visual acuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_acuity

    A reference value above which visual acuity is considered normal is called 6/6 vision, the USC equivalent of which is 20/20 vision: At 6 metres or 20 feet, a human eye with that performance is able to separate contours that are approximately 1.75 mm apart. [9] Vision of 6/12 corresponds to lower performance, while vision of 6/3 to better ...

  9. 4K resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4K_resolution

    Native 4K projectors were quoted in five figures well into 2015 before finally dropping below US$10,000, with Sony being the only major maker marketing a comprehensive 4K projection solution as of 2015. [95] At normal direct-view panel sizes and viewing distances, critics claim the extra pixels of 4K are redundant with normal human vision.
