Focusing on the Essential: Considering Attention in Display Design

摘要

Larger screens and higher resolution enhance the viewing experience by allowing for deeper immersion. Recent research shows that a wider field of view can lead to increased performance in productivity tasks. Over the past years, industry has been addressing the resulting demand by offering displays of steadily increasing resolution, reaching resolutions of over nine million pixels (IBM T220 display). Although high resolution is desirable for a variety of applications, it results in an ongoing challenge for creators of rendering hardware, as the large number of pixels makes these displays especially hungry for computational resources.
