  • This is really interesting. I work in a casino and I’d say 90% of slot machines are now just video based.

    I’ve noticed when looking a far distance across the gaming floor, slot machines that are physically far away from me appear to have “choppy” reel movement when they spin. As I get closer, they smooth out. It’s really jarring at first and it made me think of video games where things in the far distance are rendered with low resolution models that are replaced with higher resolution models as you get closer.

    Maybe there is something to how we view refresh rates from distance that our eyes just lose frames or something.
