What to expect from an ideal product
- DisplayMath calculates pixel density and viewing angle for any screen size before you buy, so you stop guessing whether a 65-inch TV will look sharp from your couch.
- Enter your screen size and seating distance to instantly see pixels per degree, a metric that reveals how much detail your eyes actually resolve at that spot in the room.
- The built-in AR feature projects the screen at true physical size on your wall using a supported iPhone, no app download or account needed.
- Useful when comparing two monitor sizes side by side, like 27-inch versus 32-inch, to see which fills your field of view without overwhelming your desk distance.
- Works entirely in the browser for free, which removes the friction of committing to a purchase and returning a screen because it looked different in a showroom.
