The Science of Pixel Agitation
Stuck vs. Dead: The Critical Distinction
In display engineering, a Dead Pixel is a permanent hardware failure where the sub-pixel transistor provides no current, resulting in a static black dot. A Stuck Pixel is a physical freeze of the liquid crystal, often appearing as a bright Red, Green, or Blue dot. Our fixer is designed specifically for stuck pixels.
How Chromatic Agitation Works
By rapidly cycling through the full RGBW spectrum, our Dead Pixel Fixer forces the liquid crystal molecules in a stuck sub-pixel to oscillate at high frequencies. This rapid change in voltage can sometimes "massage" the crystal back into its fluid state, allowing it to respond to the display controller again.
Efficacy on OLED and LCD
While most effective on traditional LCD/IPS panels, this tool can also help with "minor image retention" on OLED displays. However, permanent OLED Burn-in cannot be repaired via software, as it represents physical degradation of the organic material.
Professional Maintenance Protocol
We recommend running the Turbo mode in a focused area if your browser supports it, or fullscreen if you have multiple stuck pixels. For best results, ensure your display has reached its operating temperature (on for at least 15 minutes) before starting the agitation process.
