ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING DISPLAY AND CAMERA - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18094455 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING DISPLAY AND CAMERA
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an electronic device with a display and a camera. The display includes a colorless and transparent substrate, organic light-emitting diode (OLED) type pixels, an organic encapsulation layer, and a color filter layer. The camera is positioned to capture external light passing through the display.
- The electronic device has a display that allows external light to pass through it.
- The display includes OLED type pixels, which provide high-quality images.
- The display also includes an organic encapsulation layer, which protects the pixels.
- The color filter layer helps to enhance the colors displayed on the screen.
- The camera is positioned in a way that it overlaps with a portion of the display.
- The pixels in the area overlapping the camera have a lower arrangement density compared to the rest of the display.
- The color filter layer includes different color filters for the two pixel groups.
- A black matrix is placed between the color filters in the non-overlapping area.
- A transmission area is present between the color filters in the overlapping area.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be used in smartphones, tablets, or other electronic devices with a camera and a display.
- It can improve the quality of photographs taken through the display by allowing external light to pass through.
- The arrangement density of pixels can be optimized for better camera performance.
Problems Solved
- Traditional electronic devices with a camera and display may not capture external light effectively, resulting in lower quality photographs.
- The arrangement density of pixels can affect the camera's performance and image quality.
- This technology solves these problems by allowing external light to pass through the display and optimizing the pixel arrangement.
Benefits
- Improved image quality in photographs taken through the display.
- Enhanced camera performance due to optimized pixel arrangement.
- The color filter layer helps to enhance the colors displayed on the screen.
Original Abstract Submitted
Various embodiments of the disclosure relate to an electronic device including a display and a camera. The electronic device may include a camera overlapping the display and configured to photograph external light passing through the display, wherein the display may include: a colorless and transparent substrate, a pixel layer disposed in a first direction from the substrate and comprising organic light-emitting diode (OLED) type pixels, an organic encapsulation layer (e.g., thin film encapsulation (TFE)) disposed in the first direction from the pixel layer, and a color filter layer disposed in the first direction from the organic encapsulation layer, wherein the display may include: a first area overlapping at least a portion of the camera and a second area not overlapping the camera, wherein an arrangement density of a first group of pixels in the first area may be lower than an arrangement density of a second group of pixels in the second area, and wherein the color filter layer may include first color filters overlapping the pixels of the first group, second color filters overlapping the pixels of the second group, a black matrix disposed between the second color filters in the second area, and a transmission area disposed between the first color filters in the first area.
