so everyone who cares about this kind of thing knows that LCD and OLED screens have a higher response time than CRTs
But is that because of the time taken to scale the image (since incoming video has to be converted from its original resolution to fill the screen and most TVs and monitors support a whole slew of different input resolutions), or is it more in the actual converting and decoding of the signal (since you can't just feed in NTSC/PAL/SECAM video to a flatscreen and expect it to work)
of course you also have to contend with the response time of the panel itself, which is significant in some LCDs but iwrc not as much in OLEDs
just pondering how one might design a display with the lowest possible response time
should be possible to do sub-millisecond, maybe even just a few hundred microseconds on a good OLED or μLED (when those actually exist) screen
just thinking about video stuff after seeing a tom scott video and thinking about displays
also wondering why we don't use logarithmic brightness encoding but i guess linear makes the pixel drivers simpler and there's not really a whole lot of room for complex pixel drivers
also: why do the emerging technologies that are most exciting and interesting seem to be the ones that are getting the least progress
FRAM is still super expensive, MRAM is even more expensive than FRAM, and μLEDs are barely even talked about
