http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_serial_visual_presentation: The unique method used by RSVP allows for the reading of unlimited text in a limited position. Researchers from Carnegie Mellon have found that as many as 12 words per second are readable in controlled situations (720wpm). Further research has shown that for shorter pieces of text, RSVP formats increased reading speed by 33% with no significant differences in comprehension or task load. Research done by the Wichita State University suggests that at 250 words per minute (WPM) comprehension was not significantly different from reading done using Palm Reader (EReader). Display at 650 WPM reduced comprehension by about 20% versus display at 250 WPM, from a score of 74.6 to 52.1, resulting in an effective 82% increase in words comprehended per minute, assuming the scoring is linear. Studies have shown that reading rate is determined by size of text and spacing. RSVP allows users to obtain a maximum reading rate through the ability to adjust text size and eliminate space by displaying one item at a time. http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_Serial_Visual_Presentation: RSVP ist ein Ansatz, um längere Texte auf einem kleinen Display zu lesen (z. B. einem Handy oder einem Handheld). Anstatt den Text statisch und papierähnlich darzustellen (in Seitenform), wird der Text dynamisch auf dem Display abgespielt. Der Benutzer muss nicht mehr selber scrollen, sondern nur noch den Wörtern auf dem Display folgen. Die Geschwindigkeit wird adaptiv berechnet, d. h. sie wird mit Rücksicht auf die Textstruktur berechnet. Punktuation bremst, kürzere Wörter beschleunigen sie.
