Why not track the cumulative amount of R, G, and B activation for each pixel and then model a predicted burn-in mask based on the actual usage?

- olympus 9y agoBecause of askvictor's point. Logging every single pixel value would suck down battery life equivalent to recording your screen every moment it is on. If you stored cumulative pixel activations in an array (like I would think of doing), you are going to overflow an integer value very quickly, or run into floating point issues. If you stored it as a video or in a DB, you are going to have weeks worth of video that need stored.
- tatersolid 9y agoSampling at a very small fraction of the number of pixels would suffice for long-term statistics. Say one pseudo-randomly chosen pixel per second. An exponential average would pretty much eliminate storage growth.
