DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18538250 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a display device with a display panel that has different regions for displaying pixels and controlling light transmission. An opening/closing module is used to manage the passage of light through the panel, based on the activation of an optical sensor located beneath the panel.
- The display device includes a display panel with distinct display regions for pixels and light-transmitting regions.
- An opening/closing module controls the transmission of light through the light-transmitting regions.
- An optical sensor positioned below the display panel triggers the opening of the light-transmitting regions when activated.
- The opening/closing module blocks the light-transmitting regions when the optical sensor is not activated.
Potential Applications: 1. Smartphones and tablets with adaptive display brightness based on ambient light conditions. 2. E-readers with automatic adjustment of screen visibility in different lighting environments. 3. Automotive displays that optimize visibility for drivers by adjusting light transmission.
Problems Solved: 1. Efficient control of light transmission in display devices. 2. Enhanced user experience by adapting display visibility to ambient light conditions. 3. Improved energy efficiency by optimizing screen brightness based on external lighting.
Benefits: 1. Better readability and visibility of display content in various lighting conditions. 2. Energy savings through automatic adjustment of screen brightness. 3. Enhanced user comfort and experience with adaptive display technology.
Commercial Applications: The technology can be applied in various consumer electronics devices such as smartphones, tablets, e-readers, and automotive displays. It can also be integrated into smart home devices and wearable technology to enhance user experience and energy efficiency.
Questions about Display Device Technology: 1. How does the opening/closing module control light transmission in the display device? 2. What are the potential benefits of integrating an optical sensor for managing light transmission in display panels?
Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments disclose a display device including a display panel including a first display region in which a plurality of first pixels are disposed, a second display region including pixel regions in which a plurality of second pixels are disposed and a plurality of light-transmitting regions, and an opening/closing module configured to control light passing through the plurality of light-transmitting regions, and an optical sensor disposed below the display panel, wherein the opening/closing module opens the light-transmitting region when the optical sensor is driven, and blocks the light-transmitting region when the optical sensor is not driven.
