Blur Busters Forums

I received permission to post a long, informative email discussion, since I (Mark Rejhon) am one of the few people to understand strobe backlight behavior with human vision (benefits/side effects and technical explanations). This person preferred to remain anonymous, however, this information posted...

Good catch. I've edited the giveaway details to mention this.

Everyone else, keep it coming!

Very nostradamus, very nostradamus. On par with my Arduino Scanning Backlight, in the pre-LightBoost2D-era. I correctly foresaw the era of strobe backlights, and look at where we are today (LightBoost, EIZO Turbo240, BENQ Blur Reduction).

Interesting...I never thought LightBoost would contribute to input lag. Do you know why it does? I assumed that backlight strobing was independant from drawing the frame, but I guess not? In any case, 4ms shouldn't be perceivable, so that's good to know. That is because the monitor is being refresh...

What would the best alternative scan method be? It is still probably faster sequential scan, taken from a fast packet transmission cable (DisplayPort, which can theoretically transmit a 1080p 4:2:2 frame in only 2.3 milliseconds if using both channels) until we do random access refreshing or other ...

So if I understand correctly, all current displays scan images from top to bottom. This is a relic left over from the old analog CRT days and was kept for backwards compatibility reasons. Is it possible to scan the entire image/frame all at once? Is anyone working on alternative scan methods? Would...

That's true...high DPI would definitely be more useful for high sensitivity gaming, since you're reliant on very small and precise movements to be accurate. The silver lining is that a mouse that has accurate high DPI, will also be accurate at low DPI too. At least that is how it has normally turne...

As for in-game sensitivity, it depends. Lower sensitivity will result in greater precision, but less mobility. For CS:GO, my personal preference is to have 1 full swipe accross the mousepad to equate to 270 degrees in game, which I feel is a good balance between precision and mobility. I am somewha...

Really depends on the game though. If you're talking quick bullet hose/hitscan shooters with low TTK (CS, CoD), then the advice is pretty good. High TTK games that involve tons of left hand input in combat with a combination of hitscan and projectile weapons (Tribes, Q3A, Warsow), then you'll almos...

I agree! We're being very careful not to be "one of those forums" that has 20 empty topics of 0 posts each, so we'd rather get busy first before we split-up the topics. Busy forums are more fun! Know what I mean? :-) We'll do this soon enough -- probably early 2014, likely. For now, we're not enforc...
