Lecture 23: Virtual Reality (42)

This has always been really interesting - how human vision / photorecepters differ from the pixel-based approach of digital displays. Was reading this article (https://clarkvision.com/articles/eye-resolution.html) which was a really interesting discussion on this

Thanks for sharing @caelinsutch! One thing that I found interesting from that website is that the human eye's "focal length" is 22mm. One question that springs from this is whether or not surgery can be done on one's eye, such that it allows for a SMALLER focal length (and therefore much larger field of view, as these two things are inversely related to each other).

Is there an optimal pixel size that we can create adjusted for the size of one photorecepter (1 arc min)? If red green and blue pixels are put aside each other, I would imagine there is a set pixel size to maximize the adjacency effect.
