  • Publication number: 20250252907
    Abstract: A display device includes first and second light-emitting units. An external quantum efficiency of the first light-emitting unit at a first current is less than at a second current. An external quantum efficiency of the second light-emitting unit at the first current is greater than at the second current. The first and second light-emitting units are operated at first and second operating currents respectively. When the first operating current is less than or equal to a threshold current, a quantity of the first light-emitting unit is greater than a quantity of the second light-emitting unit; and when the first operating current is greater than the threshold current, the quantity of the first light-emitting unit is less than the quantity of the second light-emitting unit. The first current is less than the second current. The threshold current is greater than the first current and less than the second current.

  • Patent number: 12301814
    Abstract: Techniques and tools for encoding enhancement layer video with quantization that varies spatially and/or between color channels are presented, along with corresponding decoding techniques and tools. For example, an encoding tool determines whether quantization varies spatially over a picture, and the tool also determines whether quantization varies between color channels in the picture. The tool signals quantization parameters for macroblocks in the picture in an encoded bit stream. In some implementations, to signal the quantization parameters, the tool predicts the quantization parameters, and the quantization parameters are signaled with reference to the predicted quantization parameters. A decoding tool receives the encoded bit stream, predicts the quantization parameters, and uses the signaled information to determine the quantization parameters for the macroblocks of the enhancement layer video. The decoding tool performs inverse quantization that can vary spatially and/or between color channels.
