Basic Decision Making (BDM) Calculations

Display Image Size for 2D Content in Audiovisual Systems (ANSI/INFOCOMM V202.01:2016)

Fill out the shaded cells to find the farthest viewer, image height, or element height for Basic Decision Making based on the information you need.
The calculator will determine closest viewer.

Note:

What is Image Offset?
What is Element Height?

Standard Eye Level - Use consistent units.

Image Aspect Ratio - Express as X.XX

Do not add measurement labels (", mm,%)

For BDM Acuity of 200 If the Viewing Ratio is at least

0.80 1.00 1.50 2.00 3.00 4.00 5.00 6.00 7.00 8.00 9.00

but no more than

1.00 1.50 2.00 3.00 4.00 5.00 6.00 7.00 8.00 9.00 10.00

The minimum %Element Height should be at least
