DISPLAY DEVICE HAVING A SENSOR AREA - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18518926 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE HAVING A SENSOR AREA

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a display device with a display panel that includes a main area and a sensor area. Sensor devices overlap the sensor area in the thickness direction of the display panel. The display panel has first subpixels in the sensor area and second subpixels in the main area, with different numbers of transistors in each.

  • The display device includes a display panel with a main area and a sensor area.
  • Sensor devices overlap the sensor area in the thickness direction of the display panel.
  • The display panel has first subpixels in the sensor area and second subpixels in the main area.
  • The number of transistors in the first subpixels is different from the number in the second subpixels.

Original Abstract Submitted

A display device includes a display panel including a main area and a sensor area. Sensor devices overlap the sensor area of the display panel in a thickness direction of the display panel. The display panel includes first subpixels, which are disposed in the sensor area, and second subpixels, which are disposed in the main area. The number of transistors of each of the first subpixels is different from the number of transistors of each of the second subpixels.
