  • Patent number: 10497098
    Abstract: A display apparatus and an image processing method thereof are provided. The display apparatus includes a display panel and a processor. The display panel has at least one arc-shape. The processor is configured to: receive position and shape information of the arc-shape of the display panel; adjust a display data according to the position and shape information to generate an adjusted display data, set an anti-aliasing block with a plurality of weighting values; scan the adjusted display data by the anti-aliasing block, and find at least one first weighting value and at least one second weighting value corresponding to a first gray level and a second gray level; operate an arithmetic operation by a grey level of a scanned pixel or a scanned sub-pixel with the first or second weighting value, and adjust the grey level of the scanned pixel or the scanned sub-pixel according to an operation result.

  • Patent number: 10115184
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and device for processing image data and a display device including the device for processing image data. The device for processing image data includes: an edge detector for receiving image data to be displayed, and performing edge detection on the image data to identify edge subpixel points; a brightness comparator for comparing brightnesses of the identified edge subpixel points with a preset brightness; a brightness attenuator for attenuating brightnesses of edge subpixel points which have a brightness greater than the preset brightness to obtain image data to be transmitted; and a data transmitter for transmitting the image data to a source driver. The present disclosure can effectively eliminate zigzag edges, and meanwhile guarantee the sharpness at edges of an image.

  • Patent number: 10043442
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a display device and a method for modifying image displaying on a display panel. The display panel includes a pixel array composed of a plurality of pixel points each including three subpixels of three different colors which are arranged in a delta arrangement. The method includes: receiving original image signals which include brightness values of respective subpixels; determining a plurality of first pixel points; for each subpixel in each of the first pixel points, modifying the brightness value of the subpixel according to the brightness value of a subpixel having the same color as the subpixel in at least one of pixel points which are adjacent to the first pixel point; and providing the pixel array with modified image signals according to the modified brightness values of respective subpixels in the first pixel points.

  • Patent number: 7995137
    Abstract: An exposure compensation method automatically generates an accurate exposure value to clearly show the profiles of objects in front of a black background or a white background. First, initial edge energy is derived from luminance values for pixels in a digital image having an initial exposure value. Maximum edge energy is obtained by varying an exposure compensation value for the digital image, and an optimal exposure compensation value according to the maximum edge energy is also obtained. If a difference between the maximum edge energy and initial edge energy is larger than a threshold value, a current exposure value is set to the initial exposure value compensated by the optimal exposure compensation value. Otherwise, the initial exposure value is directly designated as a current exposure value.

  • Patent number: 7479989
    Abstract: Chroma upsampling is performed by setting a chroma of a target pixel according to luma of neighboring pixels. When a luma of the target pixel differs from the luma of both of the reference pixels, the chroma of the target pixel is set to a value of (k*C1+(m?k)*C3+m/2) shifted n bits to the right. In this formula, n is an integer, m is equal to 2n, and k is equal to {0˜m, min(abs(abs(Y1?Y2)*k?abs(Y2?Y3)*(m?k)))}. Since luma are considered, and a precise calculation is used in this method, the calculations required are simplified and reduced, and video quality is improved.
