    Abstract: A display driver includes image processing circuitry and drive circuitry. The image processing circuitry is configured to generate first voltage data for a first pixel in a first screen area of a display panel using a first gamma parameter. The image processing circuitry is further configured to generate second voltage data for a second pixel in a second screen area of the display panel using a second gamma parameter set. The image processing circuitry is further configured to determine an interpolated gamma parameter set for a third pixel in a connection area of the display panel through interpolation between the first gamma parameter set and the second gamma parameter set. The connection area is disposed between the first screen area and the second screen area. The image processing circuitry is further configured to generate third voltage data for the third pixel using the interpolated gamma parameter set.

    Abstract: A method includes generating first demura data comprising first correction amounts for pixels in a first region of a display panel. The first region has a first pixel density. The method further includes generating second demura data comprising second correction amounts for pixels in a second region of the display panel. The second region has a second pixel density different from the first pixel density. The method further includes generating modified second demura data by modifying the second correction amounts by a first factor. The method further comprises compressing the first demura data and the modified second demura data to generate compressed demura data. The method further includes providing the compressed demura data and factor information indicative of the first factor to a display driver.

    Abstract: A processing system comprises a first integrated circuit (IC) and a second IC. The first IC comprises first image processing circuitry, first display panel driver circuitry, and first communication circuitry. The first image processing circuitry is configured to generate a first overlay image by overlaying a first partial input image with a first image element based on first partial input image data representing the first partial input image and first image element data representing the first image element. The first display panel driver circuitry is configured to drive a display panel based on the first overlay image. The first communication circuitry is configured to output second image element data representing a second image element to the second IC.

    Abstract: The present implementations relate to a support structure for an input device that supports deflection of an input surface responsive to input forces exerted thereon and vibration of the input surface responsive to haptic feedback generated by a haptic actuator. The support structure includes one or more fixed structures mounted to a housing and a dynamic surface mounted to a sensor layer of the input device. A number of first deformable segments cantilever from the one or more fixed surfaces and deflect in a vertical direction when an input force is exerted on the sensor layer, where the input force is orthogonal to the input surface. A number of second deformable segments connect the plurality of first deformable segments to the dynamic surface and deflect in a horizontal direction when shear forces are exerted on the dynamic surface, where the shear forces are parallel to the input surface.
