The Perception of Flicker and Glare on Computer CRT Displays

Abstract
Subjects rated their discomfort due to direct glare, reflected glare, and flicker while viewing a CRT display under various conditions of ambient illuminance, video luminance, and video polarity. The angle away from the CRT at which the subjects first noticed flicker was also measured. Levels of these design and environmental variables that minimize discomfort are suggested. Video luminance was shown to have the greatest impact on comfort. Methods of reducing glare and flicker are discussed.
