摘要:
A block noise reducer detects block boundaries in all components of an input video signal and smoothes the different components selectively on the basis of the detected block boundaries and their periodic locations. By removing block noise on the basis of block boundaries detected in color difference signals, the block noise reducer removes block noise from scenes with gradual changes in color but little or no change in luminance.
摘要:
A block noise detector has a spatial difference calculator that calculates differences between values of adjacent pixels. A spatial difference comparator detects edges by comparing the calculated differences. Eight counters count edges detected at different groups of positions spaced eight pixels apart in each horizontal line. The maximum count and the group of positions at which it occurs are detected at the end of each horizontal line to detect block noise and the positions of the block boundaries. The block noise detector is small in size because it only has to count edges in one line at a time, and detects edges accurately by comparing the difference at a given position separately with differences to the left and differences to the right.

An image processing apparatus enhances contrast without producing color balance distortion or color collapse by generating a gradation-scale correction table from a distribution of a characteristic quantity of an input image signal, using the gradation-scale correction table to derive a gradation correction parameter for each pixel from a maximum component value of the pixel, and multiplying all components of the pixel by the gradation correction parameter.

An image display apparatus includes a light source for emitting a plurality of light beams arranged in a direction corresponding to a sub-scanning direction, a light source driver for individually modulating intensities of the plurality of light beams; a light scanning unit for performing main scanning and sub-scanning; an image display screen for receiving the plurality of light beams scanned in the main and sub-scanning directions; and a controller, wherein, in one frame period, a distance of movement of the light irradiation positions on the image display screen moved by one sub-scanning is a distance obtained by multiplying an interval between adjacent two scanning lines in the sub-scanning direction on the image display screen by a predetermined integer which is an integer smaller than number of the plurality of light beams arranged in the direction corresponding to the sub-scanning direction.

An image display device and an image display method are provided so as to suppress consumption power and provide a more brightly colored display image. The image display device is provided with a light modulating means wherein image data is inputted and an image is formed by modulating light from a light source based on the image data. The image display device is also provided with a color information detecting means for detecting a quantity of a chromatic color component of an image expressed by the image data; a light source control data generating means for generating light source control data for controlling brightness of the light source; and a light source control means for controlling the brightness of the light source based on the light source control data.
摘要:
A luminance information detector (3) detects a maximum luminance-signal gradation information value and a minimum luminance-signal gradation information value from one frame of a luminance signal obtained from an image signal (Db) and outputs the values as luminance information values (Yi). A color information detector (20) detects a maximum color-signal gradation information value of the three color signals (RGB) obtained from the image signal (Db) for one frame and a minimum color-signal gradation information value of the three color signals (RGB) obtained from the image signal (Db) for one frame and outputs the values as color information values (Ci). A correction controller (45) calculates parameters (Pa) based on the luminance information value (Yi) and the color information values (Ci); a gradation corrector (5) processes negative color signals point-symmetrically with respect to the origin, according to the parameters (Pa), in the same way as it processes positive color signals. A display unit displays an image based on the image signal (Dc), which is the image signal (Db) after gradation-scale correction. Contrast can thereby be improved without excessive color collapse.

摘要:
In the image processors and the image processing methods of the present invention, the number of bits for quantizing image data is adjusted on the basis of a dynamic range of each block. Therefore, the error introduced by encoding is reduced without increasing the data amount of the encoded image data, and the response speed of a liquid crystal can be controlled appropriately by preventing unnecessary voltages from being applied due to the error introduced by encoding.
