At what level in resolution (4k, 8k, etc) is something higher resolution than average human eyes max out at and why?
In: Biology
I may be incorrect, as I’m no expert, but I believe its less about resolution and more about PPI (Pixels Per Inch) density in relation to distance and screen size. A 27″ 1080p panel and a 55″ 4k panel are going to look roughly similar in crispness if they’re both good quality and you’re viewing them from your respective proper distances. On top of that, a 70″ 4k panel is likely to look lower resolution than a comparable 55″ 4k, due to the inherent difference in pixel density because of the larger screen. A good way to think about it is with the screens at sports stadiums. They look pretty crisp since you’re usually a thousand-or-so feet away, however because they only made it high enough resolution to be clear from long distance, up close you can basically count the pixels.
