Green Screen Test - Most Effective Sub-Pixel Diagnostic

A vibrant Pure Green (#00FF00) diagnostic tool. Green is the most crucial color for testing because the human eye is most sensitive to it (occupying 2/3rds of your retinal cones). This means even the tiniest "Dead" or "Dark" pixel is glaringly obvious against a green background. If you only run ONE color test, make it this one.

🟢 Why Green is the Most Important Test

The human eye has evolved to be most sensitive to green wavelengths. This makes green screen testing particularly effective because:

  • Defects are more visible against green than any other color
  • Stuck red/blue subpixels stand out clearly as magenta or colored dots
  • If you only have time for one color test, choose green

💡 When to Use Green Screen Test

The green screen test is ideal for:

  • Quick single-color defect detection
  • Finding stuck red/blue subpixels
  • Most effective single test for display quality
  • Checking corners for defects and backlight issues

How to Use Color Palette & Display Tester

The "Quick Scan" Method

Press 'G'. Scan the screen in a "Z" pattern. • Black dots = Dead Green sub-pixels (or fully dead pixels). • Magenta/Purple dots = Stuck Red/Blue sub-pixels.

Checking for "Mura" (Clouding)

Green is excellent for spotting "Mura" – uneven panel patches that look like dirty stains. If your green screen looks "Blotchy", your panel construction is poor.

Common Calculations & Examples

Example 1: Why do Gamers care about Green?

Problem: You see a weird "grain" in your games.

Steps:

  1. Open Green Screen Test.
  2. Look closely at the screen texture.
  3. If you see a "Screen Door Effect" (faint black grid lines), your monitor has extensive gap space between pixels (common in low-PPI VR headsets and old 1080p monitors).
Result: Diagnostic of physical pixel structure visibility.

Explanation: Because we see green best, pixel gaps are most visible on green backgrounds.
