[visionlist] fast displays for vision research?

Really the only solution would be to use now antique point plotters with fast phosphors - P15 for example running on a Datacheck XY1050 (the next generation of the Tektronix 608) or perhaps to build a LED display using a timer card, it would depend on what it is you would like to time of course.

Hi

I wonder what kind of displays are currently most recommended for vision
research when fast and accurate timing is important?

We want to do some studies using flicker stimuli where we want to
manipulate the phase even at high frequencies around 50Hz and higher
So 'refresh rates' above 100Hz and ideally above 150Hz as some CRT
monitors offered would be great.

Are there still (fast) CRT monitors sold? where?
Any recommendations for fast (and temporally accurate) LCD devices?
Are Plasma devices suitable?

We are interested in both monitors/screens as well as Projectors - for
MEG research

Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated!
