  • Publication number: 20170193689
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for displaying shadows of circular light sources. A computing device can determine a light source and an occluding polygon that is between the light source and a receiver surface, where the occluding polygon includes vertices connected by edges. The computing device can determine a shadow of the occluding polygon on the receiver surface by at least: determining, for a particular vertex, a projection vertex on the receiver surface by projecting a ray from the center point through the particular vertex; determining an outline polygon based on the projection vertex; determining a projection circle around the projection vertex; determining a penumbra of the shadow based on exterior tangents outside of the outline polygon; and determining an umbra of the shadow based on interior tangents inside the outline polygon. The computing device can display at least part of the shadow.

  • Publication number: 20160358547
    Abstract: A pixel circuit, a pixel, and an AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display device comprising the pixel and a driving method thereof. The pixel circuit comprises a power supply circuit, a basic circuit and a compensation circuit, which are sequentially connected. The power supply circuit is connected to a first power supply to supply power to the basis circuit. The compensation circuit is connected to second and third power supplies, respectively, for providing difference values compensating for a voltage and current of an OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode). The pixel comprises an OLED and the pixel circuit. The AMOLED display device comprises the pixel circuit. By compensating for a difference between threshold and power supply voltages of a transistor, the response characteristics of the AMOLED may be improved to generate light of a same brightness, thereby meeting requirements on image uniformity and consistency of an AMOLED.

  • Publication number: 20160329385
    Abstract: A pixel structure and an organic light emitting display are disclosed. The pixel structure includes a plurality of pixels which includes a plurality of sub-pixels. At least one pixel forms a pixel unit, and longitudinally adjacent pixel units are arranged in a vertical mirror image, and/or laterally adjacent pixel units are arranged in a horizontal mirror image. The present disclosure may increase the area of mask opening during evaporation, reduce the difficulty of mask production process, and reduce the evaporation process difficulty by a reasonable pixel arrangement structure and allowing sub-pixels of adjacent pixels to share one mask opening to evaporate. It does not need to preset a gap during evaporating the sub-pixels of adjacent pixels of the mask, thereby a real high PPI is achieved while keeping the opening ratio. In addition, the present disclosure can further increase the strength of the mask.
