I don’t think this will ever improve significantly (maybe a little bit with software tweaks) on AVP1 hardware. The current algorithm is not terrible; it may be possible to improve the artifacting a bit but ultimately the rendering setup exists to cope with the resolution of the displays. The state of the art in cost-effective HMDs will need to advance a bit for this to really get “fixed”, as TFA notes. It is telling that it took a very contrived test (a white grid of fine lines on black) for this to be obvious. Most things displayed by most users won’t run into this problem. I agree that this thing is not yet monitor-replacement-level yet. I mostly just want it for watching movies in bed or on planes.
