M
Moiré effect
A fringe pattern arising from the interference between two superimposed line patterns.
In a monitor it comes from the interference between the shadow mask pattern and the video information
(video moiré), and between the shadow mask pattern and the horizontal line pattern (scan moiré). It shows
itself as wavy patterns on the screen and becomes more noticeable as monitor resolution increases. Since
the video signal varies continuously, little can be done about video moiré. Scan moiré depends on the
horizontal scanning frequency and can be alleviated by appropriate choice of frequency. Autoscan
(MultiSync) monitors, which operate over a range of scanning frequencies, may sometimes exhibit moiré in
certain video modes.
