Abstract: A display apparatus including a display panel, a camera module, and a diffraction suppression device is provided. The display panel is provided with multiple signal lines and multiple display pixels. The signal lines and the display pixels are alternately arranged along at least one direction. The camera module has a light receiving surface facing the display panel. The light receiving surface is overlapped with the display panel. The diffraction suppression device is disposed between the display panel and the camera module, and has multiple first light-transmitting regions and multiple second light-transmitting regions alternately arranged along the at least one direction. The first light-transmitting regions are respectively overlapped with the display pixels. The second light-transmitting regions are respectively overlapped with the signal lines.

Abstract: A pixel structure is provided. The pixel structure includes a display unit and a shading unit, and at least a portion of the shading unit is disposed on the display unit. The display unit includes a pixel switch element and a self-illuminating element, and the self-illuminating element is electrically connected to the pixel switch element. The shading unit includes a shading electrode and a shading layer, and the shading layer is disposed on the self-illuminating element and electrically connected to the shading layer.

Abstract: A method for operating a local device to permit a host computer to assert control over the local device via a communication port. A control available time window of prearranged duration is set up in the local device in response to a power on start condition. During this control available time window an Assert Control signal is received from the host computer. An Acknowledge Control signal is sent to the host computer upon receipt of the Assert Control signal during the control available time window. Then the local device responds to any control commands and data received from the host computer. Finally, the local device initiates processing of a normal local device application processes when no Assert Control signal is received during the control available time window or after the host computer has finished sending control commands and data to the local device.
