Butterscotch's display system approaches retinal resolution, which is the pixel density at which most people's eyes cannot distinguish individual pixels.

Key Points: 
  • Butterscotch's display system approaches retinal resolution, which is the pixel density at which most people's eyes cannot distinguish individual pixels.
  • This reduces the perception that the user is looking at screens, eliminating the "screen door effect" of the visible pixel grid.
  • A production-ready system would need a higher field of view, but this requires incredibly high-resolution screens and massive computing demands.
  • All reports feature multiple interview-based company profiles from key industry players in addition to SWOT analysis, readiness level assessments, and much more.
