Pixel Pitch
What is pixel pitch

Pixel pitch refers to the distance between each pixel on a screen, and is measured in pixels per millimeter (PP).

Why is pixel pitch important?

 

Pixel pitch is an important concept when it comes to monitors and display technology, and directly affects image quality. Generally speaking, a smaller pixel pitch will give a sharper image with more detail, while a larger pixel pitch will give a coarser and less detailed display.

A higher pixel density will give a more detailed image because the pixels are placed closer together, and thus can show more details in the image. On the other hand, a lower pixel density will mean that there is a greater distance between the pixels, and thus the image will be less detailed.

What is the right pixel pitch for my needs

In addition, pixel pitch is an important factor to consider when purchasing a screen. For example, if you will be using the screen to view high-resolution images or videos, a screen with a higher pixel density will provide a better display. On the other hand, if you only use the screen for simple tasks such as word processing and web browsing, a lower pixel density will suffice.

Pixel pitch is also a factor that can affect the price of a monitor. Generally speaking, a screen with a higher pixel density will be more expensive to produce, and thus also have a higher price. But with ever-improving technology, screens with higher pixel density are becoming increasingly available and affordable.

Obs!

It is important to note that the optimal pixel density depends on the size of the screen and viewing distance. For example, a large screen viewed from a short distance will require a higher pixel density to provide a sharp image, while a smaller screen viewed from a greater distance will be able to have a lower pixel density without affecting image quality.

I sum, pixel pitch er en viktig faktor når det gjelder bildekvaliteten på en skjerm. Det påvirker både skarpheten og detaljnivået i bildet, og er en faktor som bør vurderes når du kjøper en skjerm. Husk å vurdere både størrelsen på skjermen og visningsavstanden når du velger piksel tetthet for å sikre en optimal visningsopplevelse.

Viewing distance Table

Sharpest viewing distance, also known as retina distance, is a formulated calculation of the distance a person with perfect vision must move away from an LED screen to see a continuous pixel.

Comfortable Viewing Distance is an estimate of what will be a comfortable viewing distance for most people. This is a subjective estimate and will take into account variables such as a person's view, resolution of content and type of content.
