摘要:
The color gamut of a image display device is improved by the introduction of a broad band stop filter in combination with a band pass filter, a first light field and a second light field. The first light field is generated by a first and a second light source, emitting blue and green light, respectively. The second light field is generated by said second light source and a third light source emitting red light. The color gamut is improved since the band pass filter facilitates a displacement of the color point of said second light source towards shorter wavelengths, as the band pass filter transmits some of the blue light in the first light field. Similarly, a displacement towards longer wavelengths is facilitated, as the filter transmits some of the red light of said second light field. Hence, four primary colors are generated by only three light sources.

A multi-primary conversion (5) of input drive values (RGB) defines a color of a pixel (PI) of a multi-primary display(DP) in an M dimensional color space (XYZ) into N>M output drive values (di) in an N dimensional drive space. The N output drive values (di) drive N sub-pixels (SPi) of the pixel (PI). The color of the pixel (PI) in the color space (XYZ) is defined by linear combinations of N color primaries of the respective N sub-pixels (SPi). The multi-primary conversion(5) comprises: defining a constraint in the color space (XYZ) thereby causing in the color space (XYZ) a convex polytope (U0; L0; V50) defined by vertex points (V10, V11, V12; V20, V21; V50), wherein only colors in the color space (XYZ) belonging to the convex polytope fulfill the constraint, determining exemplary solutions of the output drive values (di) for at least a subset of the vertex points (V10, V11, V12; V20, V21; V50), and constructing the output drive values (di) fulfilling the constraint as a convex combination of the exemplary solutions.
摘要:
An illuminating member (4) that, independent of any image content, comprises a central region (5) and an enclosing region (6), wherein said enclosing region (6) is adapted to emit light of lower quality than the light emitted by the central region (5). The illuminating member is adapted to illuminate a display panel (2) of a display device. By having the enclosing region emit light of lower brightness (dimming) a significant power reduction can be achieved for a wide range of typical images while largely maintaining the perceived image quality. Further, by using light emitting elements of lower quality for the enclosing region, manufacturing costs may be reduced while largely maintaining the perceived image quality.
摘要:
A color gamut mapping maps an input image signal which has input pixel colors defined by an input luminance and an input chromaticity into a mapped image signal which has corresponding mapped pixel colors defined by a mapped luminance and a mapped chromaticity for a display. The input pixel colors lie within the input color gamut different than the display color gamut. The desired mapped luminance may be retrieved by looking up stored desired luminance values in a look-up table at the mapped chromaticity, or by calculating a relative to white luminance, or a luminance decrease, etc.

摘要:
A display system comprises a color sequential display (201) having a backlight (205) comprising several backlight segments and a light modulating panel (207) comprising pixels having controllable light transmission. A backlight unit (211) determines, for a plurality of backlight segments, backlight chromaticities for fields of an image in response to the image content. An order unit (217) determines a sequential order of the backlight chromaticities for each of the plurality of backlight segments for the image in response to the chromaticities. A driver (219) generates a backlight drive signal for the backlight (205) corresponding to the chromaticities and sequential order. A modulating processor (213) determines light modulating values for the pixels in response to the chromaticities, the sequential order and the image. A driver (221) then generates a light modulating drive signal for the light modulating element corresponding to the light modulating values. The system may improve image quality by reducing spatial cross-talk between the backlight segments.
摘要:
A method of gamut mapping maps an input image composed of pixels and having an input gamut (IG) defined by input RGB primaries (Ri, Gi, Bi) to a reproduction gamut (RG) defined by reproduction RGB primaries (Ro, Go, Bo). The reproduction gamut (RG) is narrower than the input gamut (IG). An input signal (RGBin) defined with respect to the input RGB primaries (Ri, Gi, Bi) is color transformed (1) into a transformed signal (RGBt) defined with respect to the reproduction RGB primaries (Ro, Go, Bo), whereby color information of the pixels (P1, P2, P3) within the reproduction gamut (RG) is preserved. Scaling factors (SFi) indicating a distance between on the one hand pixels (P1, P2, P3) of the transformed signal (RGBt) which are outside the reproduction gamut (RG), and on the other hand an edge of the reproduction gamut (RG) are determined (2). The scaling factors (SFi) of pixels (P1, P2, P3) of the transformed signal (RGBt) are spatial low-pass filtered (3) to obtain filtered factors (FFi) for these pixels (P1, P2, P3). Component signal values of the transformed signal (RGBt) of the pixels (P1, P2, P3) are corrected (4) in response to the filtered factors (FFi) to obtain reproduction signal values (RGBo) which are input values (RGBi) moved towards inside the reproduction gamut (RG).
