Display artifact reduction

One or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying software that is operable when executed to:

• access an image to be displayed by a display;
• determine one or more characteristics associated with a content of the image, wherein the one or more characteristics comprise a spatial frequency of the content in a spatial frequency domain, and wherein the spatial frequency of the content is higher than a pre-determined spatial frequency threshold in the spatial frequency domain;
• determine a display persistence time period for the display to display the image based on the one or more characteristics associated with the content of the image;
• and
• configure the display to display the image using the display persistence time period.

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media coupled to one or more of the processors and comprising instructions operable when executed by one or more of the processors to cause the system to:
• access an image to be displayed by a display;
• determine one or more characteristics associated with a content of the image, wherein the one or more characteristics comprise a spatial frequency of the content in a spatial frequency domain, and wherein the spatial frequency of the content is higher than a pre-determined spatial frequency threshold in the spatial frequency domain;
• determine a display persistence time period for the display to display the image based on the one or more characteristics associated with the content of the image;
• and
• configure the display to display the image using the display persistence time period.
