Abstract

Four major display variables, luminance adaptation level, symbol contrast ratio, symbol visual size and off-axis viewing angle, were related, in a rotatable central composite design, to an observer's ability to identify symbols shown on a large screen display (LSD). The results show the nature and significance of all main effects as well as delineate the important interactions among these variables. The results can be used as an LSD design and evaluation tool permitting tradeoffs to be made among the important features of display equipment, projection screens and viewing facilities.
