  • Patent number: 9318075
    Abstract: An image driving method includes receiving basic image data including a first set of primary colors. The basic image data is transformed into output image data including a second set of primary colors. Luminance values of the second set of primary colors of the output image data is reduced to compensate the luminance values of the second set of primary colors of the output image data when a luminance value of the first set of primary color of the basic image data is saturated. Image distortion is thereby minimized or prevented.
