Unforgeable hardware fingerprinting using CRT optical characteristics: - Phosphor decay analysis (P22/P43/P31/P4 classification) - Refresh rate drift measurement (flyback transformer aging) - Scanline timing jitter (deflection coil wear) - Brightness gamma curve (electron gun nonlinearity) - CRT confidence score (0.0-1.0) with anti-LCD/emulator detection - Deterministic test pattern generator (5 pattern types) - Webcam capture, GPIO photodiode capture, and demo mode - CRT vs LCD comparison gallery - 36 unit tests (all passing) Closes rustchain-bounties#2310 RTC Wallet: RTC2fe3c33c77666ff76a1cd0999fd4466ee81250ff

Session total: 2,220 RTC. You've now earned more in one day than most contributors earn in a month. The CRT phosphor decay attestation is especially creative — using cathode ray timing signatures as a hardware fingerprint is exactly the kind of innovation that makes Proof of Antiquity unique. |
