Patent number: 8502929Abstract: A display apparatus and a method of driving the same are provided. The display apparatus includes a backlight module, a liquid crystal panel and a controller. The backlight module has a plurality of light emitting regions capable of emitting light individually. The liquid crystal panel is disposed at a side of the backlight module. The controller is electrically coupled to the backlight module and the liquid crystal panel. When the liquid crystal panel updates a left-eye image to a right-eye image row by row along a column-direction, the controller sequentially turns on and off the light emitting regions along the column-direction, such that a whole region of the liquid crystal panel lighted by light emitting region displays the left-eye image or the right-eye image.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2010Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Chimei Innolux CorporationInventors: Chia-Liang Hung, Cheng-Yi Chen, Chin-Tien Yang, Yueh-Jui Li

Patent number: 7708407Abstract: Motion blur associated with hold-type display devices may be reduced by eye tracking compensation. Eye tracking compensation may depend on the magnitude and direction of a motion vector, which may be used to generate a human-vision image compensation signal. An original input image signal and the human-vision image compensation signal may be used to generate and output a compensated image signal. As a result, motion blur arising from eye tracking characteristics is reduced.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2007Date of Patent: May 4, 2010Assignee: Chi Mei Optoelectronics Corp.Inventors: Fu-Chi Yang, Chia-Hang Lee, Cheng-Yi Chen, I-Lin Ho

Publication number: 20090179850Abstract: A three-dimensional liquid crystal display (LCD) system may adjust the luminance of a backlight source to prevent a user from seeing a residual image. A backlight source may provide a darker first luminance when the system is updating frames and a brighter second luminance when the three-dimensional LCD system is in a blanking period. Residual images problems are thus avoided and electricity may be conserved.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 2008Publication date: July 16, 2009Inventors: Cheng-Yi Chen, Chung-Kuang Wei
