The architecture represents a fundamental shift from fixed or globally variable refresh to a perception-optimized, region-dynamic model . It delivers lower latency, reduced power, and preserved visual fidelity, particularly benefiting VR, gaming, and mobile displays. With ongoing standardization and eye-tracking hardware maturity, this mode is poised to become the default for next-generation display systems.

Most UI engineers use setInterval or requestAnimationFrame indiscriminately. This leads to event collisions—where a refresh triggers while a render is half-finished. The "ViewerFrame" pattern forces an atomic operation: lock frame -> invalidate old -> fetch new -> commit. The architecture represents a fundamental shift from fixed
