To get the most out of the Thomson Near Chart, you will require the following:


  • A PC running Windows 10 or later with a good internet connection
  • A Smartphone or Tablet (Windows, Android or Apple) with good internet access.  In order to display the smallest stimuli, a screen with a high DPI (dots per inch) is required.
  • A standard browser can be used to display the test stimuli on the device.  However, apps are available for Windows, Android and Apple devices designed specifically for the purpose.  These can be downloaded free of charge from the Thomson Software Solutions web site, the Google Play Store or the App Store.
