  • Apparatus and method for performing response time compensation of a display between gray level transitions
    Patent number: 8212799
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for performing response time compensation. The apparatus described includes a first response time compensation (RTC) module for providing boosted gray level values when transitioning only from a previous gray level of zero to a first current gray level for a color of a pixel of a display. The apparatus also includes a second RTC module for providing boosted gray level values when transitioning from a previous gray level greater than zero to a current gray level for the color of the pixel.
