Television Size And Viewing Distance Calculator
Television Size And Viewing Distance: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers screen size (in diagonal) and aspect ratio (label). Stub page. Not published yet.
Television Size And Viewing Distance Calculator is a planned calculator in the home and energy section of Super Calculator, covering home and garden.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: screen size (in diagonal), aspect ratio (label), resolution (label), viewing distance (m or ft) and target viewing angle (deg).
Outputs: recommended distance (m or ft), recommended screen size (in), viewing angle (deg) and pixel resolvability distance (m).
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Recommended distance follows from the target horizontal viewing angle: screen width equals two times distance times the tangent of half the angle. Resolution sets the distance at which pixel structure becomes resolvable at roughly one arcminute of visual acuity, which is why 4K permits closer seating than 1080p.
