It seems a significant portion of the human population experiences eye strain
from looking at low-quality monitors that use pulse width modulation (PWM)
i.e. flickering to achieve different brightness levels, instead of DC dimming. The eye strain
issue is only getting worse because of unhealthy displays like OLEDs
and mini-LED that some people look at for hours, which has a cumulative
negative impact over the years. The new Rpi 15.6" monitor looks very impressive,
a real product design achievement in fact, but nowhere in the 9-page PDF about it
does it say whether it uses PWM or any other eye strain inducing technology.
Has anyone here measured its PWM e.g. using the popular Opple Lightmaster 4 device?
