Is the difference even noticeable? I never understood how it it sensible to have a higher input rate than your display will be able to refresh. But I digress, sorry.
I've played with WMO for 1-2 years and IE3.0 for 5 (both share the same sensor) and there is clear difference. Basically, increasing the polling rate is what makes them useful. Because of the inner workings of the censor, increasing the polling rate over ~250hz increases your perfect control speed from ~1m/s to ~1.5m/s. Increasing from 125hz to 500hz, which is the most common, also decreases the latency from 8 ms to 2, a noticeable difference. Esreality found the same stabil bahavior @1000hz, but there are suspicions that such a high frequency may damage the hardware in the long run (not confirmed). The maximum control speed doesn't benefit from such an increase and the latency decrease is only 1 ms, so most people play it safe.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=24400&post=433564 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 12:18:56 +0100 Reply by Selektionsfaktor https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-24400/page-1/?recent=433790#post=433442 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=24400&post=433442 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 19:43:53 +0100 Created by konr https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-24400/page-1/?recent=433790#post=433163 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=24400&post=433163 Wed, 13 Feb 2013 12:41:48 +0100
