Terminal latency

Read Original

This article analyzes how input latency affects user experience, citing examples from tablets, VR headsets, and computer games. It references a 2012 MSR demo showing high latency makes tablets 'terrible,' while low latency feels like 'pen and paper.' It breaks down the end-to-end latency pipeline in gaming, often reaching 100ms, and debunks the common fallacy that computer input is nearly instantaneous.
