DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF COMPENSATING DATA FOR THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17886458 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF COMPENSATING DATA FOR THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display device that includes a data compensator, a data driver, and a pixel unit with multiple sub-pixels.

  • The data compensator adds an extension bit to input image data received from an external processor to generate output image data.
  • The data driver supplies a data voltage corresponding to the output image data to each of the data lines.
  • The pixel unit consists of multiple sub-pixels, and each sub-pixel is connected to a first data line through a first anode in an odd-numbered pixel row and through a second anode with a different size in an even-numbered pixel row.
  • The data compensator adds a first extension bit to the input image data for the first sub-pixel and a second extension bit to the input image data for the second sub-pixel.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Display devices such as televisions, computer monitors, and mobile phone screens.
  • Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) headsets.
  • Automotive displays and infotainment systems.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Improved image quality and color accuracy by compensating for data variations.
  • Enhanced display performance by adding extension bits to the input image data.
  • Reduced power consumption and improved efficiency in driving the display.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Higher resolution and sharper images on the display.
  • More accurate and vibrant colors.
  • Improved overall visual experience for users.
  • Lower power consumption and longer battery life for portable devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes a data compensator to generate output image data by adding an extension bit to input image data received from an external processor, a data driver to supply a data voltage corresponding to the output image data to each of data lines, and a pixel unit including a plurality of sub-pixels. A first data line for providing a first color data signal is connected to a first sub-pixel disposed in an odd-numbered pixel row through a first anode, and is connected to a second sub-pixel disposed in an even-numbered pixel row through a second anode having a different size than the first anode, and the data compensator is configured to add a first extension bit to the input image data corresponding to the first sub-pixel and add a second extension bit to the input image data corresponding to the second sub-pixel.
