How bright can a display be before it is considered too bright?

Philadelphia Section October Webinar

How bright can a display be before it is considered too bright?

Description

Presentation:

Today's projection and direct-view displays can produce extremely high luminance levels. So, how much luminance is enough, particularly for indoor viewing? Can a display be uncomfortably bright? For cinema applications, is there a practical upper limit to luminance in a darkened room? Should we use a different metric to determine the required brightness for a given display? All these questions will be explored and (hopefully) answered to your satisfaction during this Webinar."
