Define the following, with regards to display quality: resolution, response time, brightness, dot pitch, and contrast ratio.

Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

?•Resolutionis the number of horizontal and vertical pixels in a display. For example, a monitor or screen that has a 1600x900 resolution displays up to 1600 pixels per horizontal row and 900 pixels per vertical row, for a total of 1,440,000 pixels to create a screen image. A higher resolution uses a greater number of pixels and, thus, provides a smoother, sharper, and clearer image. As the resolution increases, however, some items on the screen appear smaller. Displays are optimized for a specific resolution, called thenative resolution. Although you can change the resolution to any setting, for best results, use the monitor or screen's native resolution setting.•Response timeof a display refers to the time in milliseconds (ms) that it takes to turn a pixel on or off. Response times of displays typically range from 2 to 12 ms. The lower the number, the faster the response time.• Brightness of a display is measured in nits. Anitis a unit of visible light intensity equal to one candela (formerly called candlepower) per square meter. Thecandelais the standard unit of luminous intensity. Displays today typically range from 250 to 700 nits. The higher the nits, the brighter the images.•Dot pitch,sometimes calledpixel pitch,is the distance in millimeters between pixels on a display. Text created with a smaller dot pitch is easier to read. Advertisements normally specify a display's dot pitch or pixel pitch. Average dot pitch on a display should be .28 mm or lower. The lower the number, the sharper the image.•Contrast ratiodescribes the difference in light intensity between the brightest white and darkest black that can be produced on a display. Contrast ratios today range from 500:1 to 3000:1. Higher contrast ratios represent colors better.
