3‐1: Psychophysical Evaluation of Persistence‐ and Frequency‐Limited Displays for Virtual and Augmented Reality

Abstract

Little is known about user sensitivity to flicker and eye movement‐induced ghosting at refresh rates and persistence levels relevant for head‐mounted displays (HMDs). In this report, we describe a pair of psychophysical experiments that we performed to comprehensively quantify these artifacts and make general recommendations for HMD design.
