    Abstract: A compensation system includes a processor configured to determine compensated data for display on a sub-pixel of the display device. The processor may receive image data configured to be displayed on the sub-pixel, convert the gray level data to first voltage data; fetch, from a memory, compressed 1×1 sub-pixel uniformity compensation data for the sub-pixel, and decompress the compressed 1×1 sub-pixel uniformity compensation data via a decompressor. The decompressed data comprises the 1×1 sub-pixel uniformity compensation data for the sub-pixel. The processor may also determine a voltage compensation offset value associated with the sub-pixel based on the second voltage data, generate compensated voltage data based in part on the voltage compensation offset value and the first voltage data, convert the compensated voltage data to compensated gray level data; and transmit the compensated gray level data to pixel driving circuitry associated with the sub-pixel.

    Abstract: A display may include a display panel that emits light. The light from the display panel may be focused by a lens assembly towards a viewer. A light redirecting layer may be included in the display between the display panel and the lens assembly to ensure that the lens assembly receives incident light at an optimal angle. The light redirecting layer may redirect light by different amounts at different portions of the light redirecting layer. The magnitude of the redirection angle may increase with increasing separation from the center of the light redirecting layer. The light redirecting layer may redirect light away from the center of the light redirecting layer. The light redirecting layer may be a geometric phase lens formed using a liquid crystal film. The display may also include a circular polarizer, an additional circular polarizer, and an additional quarter waveplate.

    Abstract: Techniques for implementing and/or operating an electronic device that includes or utilizes a display panel. The display panel includes an organic light-emitting diode layer, an encapsulation layer disposed over the organic light-emitting diode layer, and a color filter layer disposed over the encapsulation layer. The color filter layer overhangs the organic light-emitting diode layer and comprises a first color filter cell of a first color component sub-pixel that at least partially overlaps an organic light-emitting diode of a second color component sub-pixel that is a different color compared to the first color component sub-pixel.

    Abstract: An electronic device may have a display and a gaze tracking system. The electronic device may display images on the display that have a higher resolution in a portion of the display that overlaps a gaze location than other portions of the display. Timing controller circuitry and column driver circuitry may include interpolation and filter circuitry. The interpolation and filter circuitry may be used to perform nearest neighbor interpolation and two-dimensional spatial filtering on low resolution image data. Display driver circuitry may be configured to load higher resolution data into selected portions of a display. The display driver circuitry may include low and high resolution image data buffers and configurable row driver circuitry. Block enable transistors may be included in a display to allow selected blocks of pixels to be loaded with high resolution image data.

    Abstract: An electronic device with a display may be provided with an array of pixels each of which includes subpixels formed from organic light-emitting diodes. The electronic device may have support structures such as a head-mountable frame or other head-mountable support structure. Optical structures such as lenses may be provided through which the array of pixels is viewable by a user. The array of pixels and the lenses or other optical structures may be supported by the head-mounted support structure. Light spreading structures may overlap the array of pixels to enhance the fill factor of the pixels. The light spreading structures may be formed from a fiber bundle layer, an array of microlenses, or other optical structures that laterally spread light that has been emitted by the organic light-emitting diodes and thereby enhances the fill factor of the pixels.
