Abstract— A method is proposed to measure and characterize motion artifacts in matrix displays. By using a fast, V(λ)‐corrected photodiode and a data‐acquisition system, accurate measurements of the temporal luminance behavior (step response) are recorded. The motion artifacts of LCDs and PDP displays are predicted from these measurements using the properties of the human‐visual system. The method is validated with perceptual evaluation experiments, for which a new evaluation protocol is established. In the end, new measures are proposed to quantify the motion‐rendering performance of these matrix displays.

A new method is proposed to measure and characterize motion artifacts in LCDs. The method is based on accurate measurements of LCD temporal step response curves with a photo‐diode, and modeling the moving image as perceived by smooth‐pursuit eye‐tracking and temporal integration. The method has been validated by a perception experiment.
