Reply to comment by MadDog00312 in New tech could bring affordable, hyper realistic screens with 1000+ Hz refresh rates by Sorin61

what about bandwidth requirements, texture resolutions and the size requirements to power/leverage all that? AAA development times are already between 6-10 years for fundamental new projects that move the technical verge and aren't iterating on established franchises and tech (simply because quality standards are so top of the line) the kind of hyper-realism that is enabled with that display tech if it ever hits will probably take generations to be fully exhausted/leveraged.

You don’t need 1000hz content to leverage 1000hz. It’s much easier on the eyes.

Even if the content is only 60fps, it will be so much smoother.

You are right of course, if they start with everything at once, which they might for the super rich. We will likely see lower resolutions and/or display scaling for a while, as without content and quite frankly processing power to deal with potentially 100 million pixels is going to be huge.

The whole point of the article and my comment was this is not just some research paper. It uses similar tools and industrial processes that already exist.

This is materials science engineering at its finest. They have already proven it works and how to do it. Now they just need money to push it across the finish line.

Professor of materials science and engineer for whatever it’s worth.

I just want bright and accurate color, and pitch blacks. I don’t need some insane resolution gaming monitor, mainly due to GPU prices for true 4K gaming, I want an amazing 100 inch tv that isn’t $60,000. This technology has the potential to make that a reality.
