Assessment of CRT and LCD technologies for the presentation of visual stimuli
To quantitatively evaluate the suitability of LCD for vision research experiments
this study developed a display performance testing system and process inspired by relevant literature with consideration of visual research requirements
and measured the key performance of a cathode ray tube (CRT) display and two general-purpose liquid crystal displays (LCDs). We compared these displays in performance measurements and analyzed the data regarding psychophysical theories
the Weber's Law in particular. Experimental results demonstrated that these displays show different Gamma properties
required Gamma-correction to linearize the gray levels for visual stimulus presentation. The CRT display had the absolute advantage in terms of response time and temporal independence
but it was inferior to the LCDs in spatial uniformity and spatial independence. In contrast
the LCD monitors had higher brightness and better spatial uniformity and spatial independence
but their response time was longer and their adjacent frames were short of independence. These findings suggest that CRT monitors still be the preferred option for presenting dynamic stimuli
whereas the LCD monitors best be used for presenting static stimuli demanding spatial independence and spatial uniformity.
