  • Publication number: 20240135854
    Abstract: A method involves measuring, for an optical property of the display panel for an input gray level and at a first refresh rate, first and second values at respective first and second ambient brightness levels. The method also involves determining a compensation factor for the input gray level at the first refresh rate. The method further involves determining a modified gamma value at a second refresh rate, wherein the modified gamma value reduces a perceived optical defect of the display panel when operating at the second refresh rate by maintaining a consistent delta difference in values for the optical property between the first and second refresh rates at different ambient brightness levels. The method additionally involves storing the modified gamma value, where the device is configured to adjust input display data using the modified gamma value when transitioning from the first refresh rate to the second refresh rate.

  • Publication number: 20240087494
    Abstract: A method for calibrating input display data for multiple display refresh rates comprises measuring (1210) an optical property of a display panel for an input gray level at a first refresh rate, measuring (1220) the optical property for a plurality of candidate gray levels at a second refresh rate, selecting (1230), based on the measured optical properties of the display panel, a corresponding gray level for the input gray level, wherein the corresponding gray level is selected from the plurality of candidate gray levels and storing (1240), at the device, the corresponding gray level for the input gray level, wherein subsequent to the storing, the device is configured to adjust input display data using the corresponding gray level for the input gray level when the display panel is transitioning from the first refresh rate to the second refresh rate.

  • Patent number: 11908113
    Abstract: An image processing method includes: (a) receiving a to-be-processed image; (b) obtaining a target brightness of the to-be-processed image; (c) creating a histogram curve of the to-be-processed image; (d) clipping the histogram curve according to a clipping value; (e) obtaining a mapping function of the clipped histogram curve; (f) obtaining a mapped image mapped according to the mapping function; (g) obtaining an average brightness of the mapped image; (h) obtaining a difference between the target brightness and the average brightness; and (i) if the difference is greater than a threshold, adjusting the clipping value and repeating steps (d) to (i) until the difference is less than the threshold. Thus, if the to-be-processed image does not reach the target brightness, the image processing device automatically repeats steps (c) to (i) until the to-be-processed image reaches the target brightness.

  • Publication number: 20220237746
    Abstract: An image processing method includes the following steps. Firstly, a block-size value is obtained. Then, a first frame into a plurality of first blocks according to the block-size value is divided. Then, a second frame into a plurality of second blocks according to the block-size value is divided. Then, a noise reduction intensity array is obtained according to a first pixel information of each first block and a second pixel information of each second block. Then, an output frame is obtained according to the noise reduction intensity array, the first frame and the second frame.

  • Patent number: 7396245
    Abstract: A memory connector includes an insulative housing, a plurality of terminals accommodated in the insulative housing, a cover engaged with the insulative housing and a switch mechanism secured in the insulative housing. The switch mechanism includes a first member and a second member. The first member keeps a proper distance to the second member. When a memory card is fully inserted into the memory card connector, the memory card passes over and pushes the first member to make electric connection to the second member. The connection between the first member and the second member generates a signal to judge whether the memory card is right inserted or not.

  • Patent number: 6962839
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to an apparatus and method of carbon nanotube (CNT) gate field effect transistor (FET), which is used to replace the current metal gate of transistor for decreasing the gate width greatly. The carbon nanotube has its own intrinsic characters of metal and semiconductor, so it can be the channel, connector or next-level gate of transistor. Furthermore, the transistor has the structure of exchangeable source and drain, and can be defined the specificity by outside wiring.
