I would guess that the eye cones and retina react in a similar way as that of a screen phosphor. Close your eyes and you will see the afterimage of what you were looking at for a split moment in time. Not too sure this explains it. According to the MVIS web site, the image formed on the retina is comparable in brightness to the image formed by natural vision. If the "afterimage effect" of the retina was similar to the phosphor effect, then why do CRT's need phosphor to reduce perceived flicker? Also, you suggest that a CRT must scan slower to allow the phosphor to react, but many monitors are capable of scanning at 80-100Hz. Do laser MEM displays scan significantly faster than this at 600x800 resolutions? I appreciate your input but I don't think it has accurately answered my question, unless I am misunderstanding? Bux
