It’s already been done, you can see as much detail as your eyes and brain can perceive. From 20 feet away almost nobody can tell the difference between a good 1080p tv and a 4k one. You can see the pixels are different when you get up close but from a short distance our eyes are not precise enough to notice the extra details
