Abstract: An electronic device may include a lenticular display. The lenticular display may have a lenticular lens film formed over an array of pixels. A plurality of lenticular lenses may extend across the length of the display. The lenticular lenses may be configured to enable stereoscopic viewing of the display such that a viewer perceives three-dimensional images. Crosstalk between viewing zones and disparity between images received from different viewing zones may result in disparity-caused shifts in images perceived by viewer of the lenticular display. To mitigate these disparity-caused shifts, compensation circuitry may be included in the display pipeline circuitry. The compensation circuitry may include stored disparity-caused shift calibration information that is used for the compensation. The stored disparity-caused shift calibration information may be a polynomial function that outputs a magnitude of disparity-caused shift for a given pixel location.

Abstract: Front-of-screen performance of the electronic display may be highly sensitive to timing settings of emission and anode reset frequencies. Changes in the timing settings may result in diverging brightness and color performance on the electronic display, which may negatively impact user experience. In some cases, emission frequency of the self-emissive display pixels may be fixed at a value, such as 120 Hertz (Hz), 240 Hz, or 480 Hz. The anode reset frequency may be set at a divisor of the emission frequency. Some refresh rates may be divisors of the pixel emission frequency. However, other refresh rates may not be divisors of the pixel emission frequency. For such non-divisor refresh rates, different driving schemes may be used to compensate for a difference from the pixel emission frequency.

Abstract: An electronic device may include a lenticular display. The lenticular display may have a lenticular lens film formed over an array of pixels. The lenticular lenses may be configured to enable stereoscopic viewing of the display such that a viewer perceives three-dimensional images. To mitigate jaggedness in a curved edge of the active area, control circuitry may modify input pixel data for the display using dimming factors. Each brightness value of the pixel data may be multiplied by a corresponding dimming factor such that the curved edge has a smooth appearance. Each physical pixel in the display may have an associated perceived pixel that is based on an appearance of that physical pixel through the lenticular lens film. The perceived pixel may have a different footprint than its corresponding physical pixel. The dimming factors for boundary smoothing in the curved edges may be based on the perceived pixels.

After being processed, each view image of the multiple-viewing-angle image is used to rebuild a final processed multiple-viewing-angle (e.g., 3D-aware image) with all views for displaying on the electronic device.
