Dear friends,
I am trying to make a calculation as to how much resolution (i.e. pixel/inch) we need in the image that the objective forms at the focal plane of the eyepiece. To make the question more clear, let us consider this similar problem:
We place an small LCD or OLED screen at the focal plane of a typical binocular eyepiece. Lets assume that this eyepiece has an apparent field of view of FOV=60 degrees, an eye relief of ER=20mm and effective focal length of f=15 mm. What is the minimum resolution needed for the screen so that a viewer can not see the individual pixels forming the image? We can assume that human eye has the ability to distinguish objects that are separated by 1 arc minute.
I appreciate any help as to how to best formulate the above calculation. B
