You can still have as much flicker at 2 Hz data refresh rate as at a 60 Hz data refresh rate (assuming a 60 Hz screen). You see flicker on the graphics of the gauges themselves, and yet they are static Quote:
I definitely manage to glance at the speedometer even when driving on a track at decent pace; the problem is that I can't fully trust the number I see there. Anyhow, I'm pretty sure there's no real reason why they don't just bump the refresh rate to at least 10 Hz. There might be some minor reasons (watch the reading jump +-1 mph on a straight between T6 and T7 in my video), but those are very much fixable. It's just apparently not a priority for them. |

I know a guy, he goes by Doc. He's pretty good at getting the timing right though.

and show it on a large 3-digit 7-segment LED display above the gauge cluster. This will also provide a better viewing angle! Heck, it might even be bright enough to reflect in the windshield and then I can put it pretty high in my field of view, like the HUD in Corvettes. Let's see if I find time to try this |

Fair enough. I definitely the lag in the speedometer. It gives me the same vibes I had with my old S2000.

Here it's worse than this, because the change of instant km/h is almost faster the double. 60 mph -> 96,5 km/h

So here's a quick way to get jaws flapping around these parts - start a new thread lamenting the fact that the new gen's manual transmission will not get auto rev-matching. (Then immediately get yourself out of the line of fire.)

However, if at the same time you are using an analog gauge, it will appear to go through each phase out of necessity, thus providing the smoothness that you see simulated here in the Ford gauge, as it is very unlikely it is an more accurate than the other displays. As was already said, its just programming. There is a polling interval. Depending on the increase in speed the vehicle will have gone from Speed A to Speed B during that time. You can either show the increase in speed by showing the actual number (say 0 then 10) or you can choose to show every number in between (0,1,2,3...,10). In the first example, you are showing the actual speed at the time it is sampled, minus processing time and display time, so you are slightly past it. In the second example, you still have the processing time but now you need to eat up cycles covering all the number between 0 and 10, so that by the time you show the 10, you have already accelerated past it, and the display is lagging. Now mind you we may be talking microseconds differences here, but there is a difference and programming choice has to be made.
