[DES3-3 (Invited)] Displays are Inherently 3dB Worse Than the Real Thing
Image aquisition, Display systems, Optical shot noise, Poisson distribution
The latest imaging technologies have successfully diminished two of the three significant camera noises (dark current noise and readout noise). However, optical shot noise still exists, which is inevitable by nature. This paper shows that even an ideal imaging system yields 3dB worse display quality than the real thing.
