System and method for PWM control of a video display screen

A pulse width modulation (PWM) control system comprising:

• a memory configured to store instructions;
• and
• a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to:
• obtain camera characteristics relating to a camera that is configured to capture an image displayed by a video display, the camera characteristics comprising a duration of a period when a shutter of the camera is open;
• calculate a PWM timing control for the video display, the PWM timing control specifying a PWM cycle duration based on the period when the shutter of the camera is open;
• and
• send a signal to the video display, the signal including the PWM timing control and configured to cause the video display to control a brightness of the video display according to the PWM timing control during the period when the shutter of the camera is open.
