At what level in resolution (4k, 8k, etc) is something higher resolution than average human eyes max out at and why?
In: Biology
Think about it like this: it’s less about the resolution, and more about how close you are to the display and how large the pixels are. Even with a 4k display, if it’s a big tv and you stand up against it, you’ll be able to see the individual pixels.
As resolutions get higher, the pixels are more likely to be imperceptable by a typical person at a typical viewing distance from a typically sized tv. This is why some people say they are already content with 4k or 1080p.
I suspect that 8k will max out what most people can see in a normal living room setup.
