DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240032347 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a display device that includes a substrate with a first and second surface. The substrate has a through portion passing through it. The device also includes a pixel array surrounding the through portion on the first surface, scan lines for providing scan signals to the pixels, and data lines for providing data signals to the pixels. The data lines include first and second data lines at different layers, with at least a portion of them curved along the perimeter of the through portion.
- The display device includes a substrate with a through portion and a pixel array surrounding it.
- It has scan lines for providing scan signals and data lines for providing data signals to the pixels.
- The data lines include first and second data lines at different layers, curved along the perimeter of the through portion.
Potential Applications:
- This display device can be used in various electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and televisions.
- It can be utilized in augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) headsets to provide immersive visual experiences.
- The curved data lines can enable flexible displays, allowing for curved or foldable screens.
Problems Solved:
- The display device solves the problem of providing data signals to pixels surrounding a through portion in a compact and efficient manner.
- The curved data lines solve the issue of routing data signals along the perimeter of the through portion without interfering with other components.
Benefits:
- The display device allows for a larger screen-to-body ratio due to the compact arrangement of pixels and data lines.
- The curved data lines enable flexible and curved displays, providing design flexibility for manufacturers.
- It enhances the visual experience by reducing interference and improving signal transmission to the pixels.
Original Abstract Submitted
a display device includes a substrate including a first surface, and a second surface opposite the first surface, and defining a through portion passing therethrough, a pixel array including a plurality of pixels surrounding the through portion at the first surface, a plurality of scan lines extending along a first direction for providing scan signals to the pixels, and a plurality of data lines extending along a second direction crossing the first direction for providing data signals to the pixels, the plurality of data lines including first and second data lines adjacent the through portion at different layers, and having at least a portion thereof curved along a perimeter of the through portion.
