METHOD FOR CONTROLLING REFRESH RATE, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18338356 Titled 'METHOD FOR CONTROLLING REFRESH RATE, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE SUPPORTING SAME'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device with a display and a processor. The processor is programmed to analyze the brightness of the display and determine if it meets a certain level. If the display is bright enough, the processor then analyzes the frames per second (FPS) of an image and the motion information of the scene to be displayed. Based on this analysis, the processor determines the appropriate refresh rate for the display. If the display is not bright enough, the processor simply sets the refresh rate to match the FPS of the image and displays the scene accordingly.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device includes a display, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to obtain an image; identify whether or not the luminance of the display equals to or is higher than a predetermined luminance; when the luminance of the display equals to or is higher than the predetermined luminance, identify the FPS of the image and the motion information of a scene of the image to be displayed by means of the display, and determine a refresh rate of the display based on the FPS of the image and the motion information of the scene; and, when the luminance of the display is lower than the predetermined luminance, determine a refresh rate corresponding to the FPS of the image as the refresh rate of the display, and display the scene of the image by means of the display based on the determined refresh rate.
