DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF DRIVING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18138360 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE AND METHOD OF DRIVING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display device that adjusts the luminance of specific regions on the display panel based on the user's gaze point, as determined by an eye tracker.

  • Display panel with pixels
  • Eye tracker to track user's gaze point
  • Timing controller to determine luminance variable region and decrease luminance
  • Luminance of region decreases more as it gets farther from gaze point
    • Potential Applications:**

- Improved user experience in virtual reality and augmented reality devices - Enhanced readability and visibility in automotive displays - Increased energy efficiency in display devices

    • Problems Solved:**

- Reduced eye strain and fatigue for users - Enhanced focus on specific content on the display - Improved contrast and visibility in varying lighting conditions

    • Benefits:**

- Customized display experience based on user's gaze - Energy-efficient display technology - Enhanced user comfort and engagement with the content displayed


Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes: a display panel including pixels; an eye tracker configured to determine a gaze point on the display panel by tracking a gaze of a user; and a timing controller configured to determine a luminance variable region of the display panel based on the gaze point, and to decrease a luminance of the luminance variable region. The timing controller is configured to decrease the luminance of a point in the luminance variable region more as the point in the luminance variable region is farther from the gaze point.
