Compensating for Non-Uniform Luminance in Curved-Edge Displays - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18126874 titled 'Compensating for Non-Uniform Luminance in Curved-Edge Displays

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes a system and method for compensating for non-uniform luminance in curved-edge displays.

  • A computing device with a curved-edge display and a luminance manager receives information about the luminance displayed by the pixels on the curved-edge display.
  • The luminance manager analyzes the received luminance information and the non-uniform luminance of the display.
  • Based on this analysis, the luminance manager determines how to modify the luminance of the pixels on the curved-edge display.
  • The determined luminance modification is then applied to either the displayed luminance or the intended luminance to compensate for the non-uniform luminance.
  • This system and method help ensure a more uniform and consistent luminance across the entire curved-edge display.


Original Abstract Submitted

This document describes systems and techniques directed at compensating for non-uniform luminance in curved-edge displays. In aspects, a computing device having a curved-edge display and a luminance manager is configured to receive an indication of a luminance that is, or is intended to be, displayed by pixels of the curved-edge display. Responsive to and based on the received indication of the luminance and a non-uniform luminance, the luminance manager determines a luminance modification for the pixels of the curved-edge display. Based on the determined luminance modification, the luminance manager modifies the luminance that is displayed or modifies the intended luminance that is intended to be displayed by pixels of the curved-edge display effective to compensate for the non-uniform luminance.
