Abstract:
According to an aspect, a display device includes a plurality of pixels. Each pixel includes two sub-pixels adjacent to each other in a first direction. Each sub-pixel has one of three colors allocated thereto. Two colors of the two sub-pixels included in the pixel are different. The two colors of the two sub-pixels and a positional relation between the two sub-pixels are the same in each of the pixels arrayed in a second direction. One color not allocated to the two sub-pixels included in a first pixel out of the three colors is allocated to at least one of the sub-pixels included in second pixels adjacent to the first pixel in the first direction. The sub-pixels having the same color allocated thereto are arranged along the first direction with one sub-pixel interposed therebetween, the one sub-pixel having another color allocated thereto.

Disclosed herein is a display apparatus including: a first pixel including three sub-pixels for displaying three primary colors respectively; and a second pixel including three sub-pixels for displaying two colors selected among the three primary colors and a predetermined color other than the three primary colors, wherein, in the first pixel, the size of the display surface of a sub-pixel for displaying a specific color included in the three primary colors as a specific color missing from the second pixel is larger than each of the sizes of the display surfaces of the two other sub-pixels for displaying the two other primary colors respectively.
Abstract:
A display device includes a display unit in which pixels are arranged in a matrix. The pixels each include a first sub-pixel having the largest area among sub-pixels, a second sub-pixel adjacent to the first sub-pixel and having an area smaller than that of the first sub-pixel, and a third sub-pixel adjacent to the first and second sub-pixels, having an area smaller than that of the first sub-pixel, and arranged in the same column as that of second sub-pixels. First, second, and third pixels are aligned in at least one of a column direction or a row direction and each include the first, second, and third sub-pixels that can display different one of first, second, and third colors. Areas of the first, second, and third colors displayable by the first, second, and third pixels in total are equal to one another.

Abstract:
A display device includes a signal processing unit that receives input signals, and calculates output signals to a first sub-pixel, a second sub-pixel, a third sub-pixel, and a fourth sub-pixel. The signal processing unit calculates a frequency of pixels belonging to each of a plurality of partitions using a light quantity of a surface light source. The signal processing unit calculates an index value for each of the partitions by at least multiplying the cumulative frequency being obtained by sequentially adding the frequency of pixels from a partition having the maximum light quantity among the partitions, and the number of partitions representing a position of a partition to which the cumulative frequency belongs counted from the partition having the maximum light quantity. The signal processing unit controls luminance of the surface light source based on a partition in which the index value exceeds a threshold.
