CoC Calculations
CoC = 1 / (lp_mm * (print_diagonal / sensor_diagonal))
Common practice is to view a print from a distance approximately equal to the diagonal measurement of the print.
A normal human eye can distinguish 5 line pairs per millimeter at a distance of 25 cm.
This is a required CoC of .2mm at the print. As the viewing distance doubles, half the lp/mm.
