  • Patent number: 11049429
    Abstract: An electronic device that includes a memory and a plane circuit is described. The memory outputs a first alpha data value and a first pixel data value, then outputs a second alpha data value and a second pixel data value, then stores a third pixel data value. The plane circuit outputs a request signal for the third pixel data value, based on whether the first alpha data value and the second alpha data value are equal to a reference value and whether the first pixel data value corresponds to the third pixel data value.

  • Patent number: 8930838
    Abstract: A display apparatus and display method are provided. The display apparatus includes an image receiving unit which receives a 2D or 3D image, an image outputting unit which displays the 2D or 3D image received through the image receiving unit, an OSD processing unit which generates an OSD picture overlapped with and shown on the 2D or 3D image displayed through the image outputting unit, and a control unit which controls the OSD processing unit to adjust a transparency of the OSD picture when the 3D image is displayed through the image outputting unit.

  • Patent number: 8791986
    Abstract: Disclosed are a display apparatus and a control method thereof. The display apparatus may include a signal receiving unit which receives a three-dimensional (3D) image signal, the 3D image signal including a left eye image and a right eye image; a converter which converts a format of the 3D image signal into a second transmission format if the format of the 3D image signal is of a first transmission format; a 3D processor which processes the converted 3D image signal for 3D display; and a display unit which performs the 3D display with regard to the processed 3D image signal. With this configuration, it is possible to convert a 3D image signal of a new standard into a format which can be processed by a system which processes a 3D image signal according to a previously existing standard.

  • Publication number: 20110304690
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are an image processing apparatus and a control method thereof. The image processing apparatus includes a receiver which receives a three-dimensional (3D) video signal; a video signal processor which scales the received 3D video signal; and a controller which controls the video signal processor to scale the 3D video signal to have adjusted depth if the 3D video signal is received through the receiver. Thus, there are provided an image processing apparatus and a control method of the same, which can adjust a cubic effect of depth of a 3D video signal through the existing scaler without a separate image reconstructing device for adjusting the cubic effect or depth of the 3D video signal.
