摘要:
There is disclosed a display device using a color wheel having a color filter Cw, in addition to normal color filters corresponding to the three primary colors. The filter Cw has almost flat spectral transmission characteristics. Brightness information included in a color image signal is quantized with (n+m) bits. Information corresponding to the lower-order n bits is displayed by light transmitted through the filter Cw. Information corresponding to the upper-order n bits is displayed by light transmitted through the normal color filters. Only brightness information to which the human eye is visually sensitive is reproduced by the filter Cw having a lower transmissivity. This can eliminate a lack of the number of gray levels due to a constraint on the minimum switching speed of a light valve. Furthermore, the brightness little deteriorates.

In an image display which reproduces a color image by using lights color-separated into four or more colors through color filters, the objects of the invention are to effectively utilize the energy of light from a light source and to reduce the effect that a slight shift of the spectral transmittance characteristics of the color filters exerts on the spectral distributions of the lights after color separated. In an image display having a light source and four or more kinds of color filters and for color-separating light emitted from the light source into four or more colors through the four or more kinds of color filters and reproducing a color image by using the color-separated lights, the spectral transmittance characteristics of the color filters are set so that the cutoff wavelengths of the four or more kinds of color filters exist in a wavelength region in which the spectral distributions obtained by multiplying the spectral emissivity characteristic of the light emitted from the light source by the color matching functions are smaller than the values obtained by multiplying the average values of the spectral distributions in the wavelength region from 380 to 780 nm by an integer.

The invention relates to an image display device displaying color image and has its object to display image having a large contrast and excellent visibility to the viewer in an image display device particularly used under environment where external light exists.To achieve the above object, black-approximated data generating means 4 generates black-approximated data R3, G3, and B3 that are data related to chromaticity in displaying black on image display means 3. Black correction means 2A subtracts subtraction data R4, G4, and B4 that have the same value as the black-approximated data R3, G3, and B3, from after-input-processing image data R1, G1, and B1, thereby to calculate after-black-correction image data R2, G2, and B2. The image display means 3 emits in response to the values of the after-black-correction image data R2, G2, and B2, thereby to perform image display processing on a predetermined screen.

An intermediate image generating means (1) generates a horizontal intermediate image (D1h) and a vertical intermediate image (D1v) by extracting components of an input image (DIN) in a particular frequency band; an intermediate image processing means (2) generates a horizontal image (D2Bh) and a vertical image (D2Bv) by performing non-linear processing (2A) and high-frequency component generation (2B); an intermediate image (D2) is obtained by combining these horizontal and vertical images by performing weighted addition for each pixel and is added (3) to the input image (DIN) to obtain an enhanced output image (DOUT). Even if the input image includes a fold-over component on the high-frequency side or does not include an adequate high-frequency component, adequate image enhancement processing can be carried out.

A first intermediate image generating means (1) generates an intermediate image (D1) by extracting a component of an input image DIN in a particular frequency band; a second intermediate image generating means (2) generates an intermediate image D2 having a frequency component higher than the intermediate image (D1); a first intermediate image processing means (3M) generates an intermediate image (D3M) by amplifying the pixel values in the intermediate image (D1); a second intermediate image processing means (3H) generates an intermediate image (D3H) by amplifying the pixel values in the intermediate image (D2); and an adding means (4) adds the input image (DIN) and the intermediate image (D3M) and the intermediate image (D3H) together to obtain an output image (DOUT). A first amplification factor (D3MA) and a second amplification factor (D3HA) are determined according to pixel values in the input image (DIN). Even if the input image includes a fold-over component on the high-frequency side or does not include an adequate high-frequency component, an enhanced image can be provided without causing overshoot.

摘要:
A video display apparatus generates luminance information for individual frames of a video signal from histograms of the luminance component of the video signal, and classifies the content of the video signal on the basis of this information. Color saturation information is also generated from color saturation histograms, and scene changes are detected. Video correction parameters and display control parameters are derived from the content classification and color saturation information. The video signal is corrected according to the video correction parameters, and displayed according to the display control parameters. Display characteristics suitable for the video content are thereby obtained. The parameters are changed when a scene change is detected, so that the viewer is not disturbed by the change in video display characteristics.
摘要:
A color conversion apparatus receives first image data including first red-green-blue color data in which the possible values of the red, green, and blue components extend beyond the range from 0% to 100%. The first color data are analyzed into first hue region data, the magnitudes of which are adjusted according to the brightness and/or saturation of the first color data to obtain second and third hue region data. The gamut of colors of the first image data is detected, and matrix coefficients are generated according to the detected gamut. The matrix coefficients are used to perform a matrix operation on the second and third hue region data to obtain second color data, thereby converting the first image data to second image data with conversion characteristics appropriate for the gamut of colors of the first image data.
