Abstract (en)

The present invention concerns a method for measuring the latency of a graphical display output, comprising the following steps:- obtaining, by a processor (5), a time value; - generating, by the processor (5), a time stamp based on the time value; - transmitting, by the processor, the time stamp to a graphics processor unit (7), GPU, rendering, by the GPU (7), a display frame including at least one graphical symbol being based on the time stamp; providing the rendered frame including the at least one graphical symbol to at least one display (10a, 10b); - capturing, by at least one camera (12), at least a portion of the display comprising the at least one graphical symbol (18, 20) of the time stamp;-determining from the at least one captured graphical symbol the rendered time stamp; and- comparing the rendered time stamp with a time reference for obtaining the latency of the graphical display output.
