DISPLAY DEVICE, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND IMAGE DATA COMPENSATING METHOD OF DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240135880 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND IMAGE DATA COMPENSATING METHOD OF DISPLAY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The display device described in the patent application includes a display panel and a pixel, along with a compensator that calculates the degradation rate of the pixel based on the input gray level of first image data. The compensator then compensates the first image data based on the degradation rate to generate second image data. A data driver generates a data signal based on the second image data and supplies it to the pixel, which consists of a first element group and a second element group connected in series. The first element group includes at least one first light emitting element, while the second element group includes at least one second light emitting element. The compensator calculates the degradation rate by considering the number of first light emitting elements and second light emitting elements.

  • Display device with compensator for pixel degradation rate calculation:
 - Includes display panel, pixel, compensator, and data driver
 - Compensator calculates degradation rate based on input gray level
 - Data driver generates data signal for pixel based on compensated image data
 - Pixel has first and second element groups with light emitting elements
    • Potential Applications:**

This technology could be applied in various display devices such as televisions, monitors, and smartphones to improve image quality and longevity of pixels.

    • Problems Solved:**

This technology addresses the issue of pixel degradation over time, ensuring consistent image quality and reducing the need for frequent pixel replacements.

    • Benefits:**

- Enhanced image quality - Prolonged pixel lifespan - Reduced maintenance costs for display devices

    • Potential Commercial Applications:**

"Display Device with Pixel Degradation Compensation" in the field of display technology

    • Possible Prior Art:**

One potential prior art could be the use of compensation techniques in display devices to address pixel degradation issues.

    • Unanswered Questions:**
    • 1. How does the compensator calculate the degradation rate based on the number of light emitting elements in each group?**

The patent application mentions that the compensator uses information on the number of first and second light emitting elements to calculate the degradation rate, but it does not provide specific details on the calculation process.

    • 2. Are there any limitations to the effectiveness of the compensation technique in preventing pixel degradation?**

While the patent application highlights the benefits of the compensation technique, it does not discuss any potential limitations or challenges that may arise in real-world applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

the display device includes a display panel and a pixel. a compensator configured to calculate a degradation rate of the pixel based on an input gray level of first image data, and compensates the first image data based on the degradation rate to generate second image data. a data driver configured to generate a data signal based on the second image data and configured to supply the data signal to the pixel. the pixel includes a first element group and a second element group connected in series to each other, the first element group includes at least one first light emitting element, and the second element group includes at least one second light emitting element. the compensator is to calculate the degradation rate by applying first information on the number of the first light emitting elements and second information on the number of the second light emitting elements.
