DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING PHOTO-SENSING PIXELS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18161029 Titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE INCLUDING PHOTO-SENSING PIXELS'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a display device that consists of a substrate and multiple unit pixels. These unit pixels contain sub-pixels and photo-sensing pixels. The sub-pixels have a light emitting element and emit light from a specific area. The photo-sensing pixels have a light receiving area with a light receiving element that generates a sensing signal based on the amount of light detected. The light emitting area and the light receiving area are positioned separately on the substrate and have polygonal shapes. Importantly, the shape of the light emitting area is different from the shape of the light receiving area.
Original Abstract Submitted
A display device includes a substrate; and a plurality of unit pixels disposed on the substrate and including sub-pixels and photo-sensing pixels. Each of the sub-pixels includes a light emitting element and a light emitting area from which light is emitted. Each of the photo-sensing pixels includes a light receiving area and a light receiving element disposed therein and outputting a sensing signal corresponding to a degree of sensed light. The light emitting area and the light receiving area are spaced apart from each other on the substrate. The light emitting area and the light receiving area each have a polygonal shape. Aa shape of the light emitting area is different from a shape of the light receiving area.
