Engineers at the University of California, San Diego have constructed the highest-resolution computer display in the world — with a screen resolution up to 220 million pixels.

The system, located at the UCSD division of the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (Calit2), can deliver real-time rendered graphics simultaneously across 420 million pixels to audiences in Irvine and San Diego.

The engineers are planning half a billion pixels with a one gigapixel distributed display.
