Abstract: A display system comprises a display device for accomplishing 3D displays by displaying images for the left eye and images for the right eye, and a display assistance device for separating them for viewing, and the display assistance device detects the wearing status and inclination of the viewer and sends status information to the display device. The display device determines whether or not the posture of the viewer is within a normal viewing range on the basis of the status information, and if this is within the range, can recognize a 3D display even in a posture other than the horizontal direction by controlling the parallax direction of the display of images in accordance with the inclination direction. When the posture is outside the range, the display device prompts correction of the posture or weakens the effect of the 3D display.

Abstract: A CPU of a projector determines whether or not a correction mode in which the aspect ratio of an input image is changed to correct distortion is set and, if the correction mode is set, determines distortion correction process parameters for changing the aspect ratio of the image to be projected onto a screen to project the image in the form of a rectangular image, and the image converter performs geometric correction on the input image on the basis of the distortion correction process parameters to project the image subjected to distortion correction.

Abstract: The mobile communication terminal comprises a first casing and a second casing carrying a first display part and a second display part, respectively. The first display part and the second display part are each capable of 3D display. The controller of the mobile communication terminal detects the mobile communication terminal being opened vertically or horizontally and detects the opening angle between the first casing and the second casing. In the 3D display in the horizontal opened state, the visibility of the 3D display is altered as the opening angle is changed. Therefore, the controller of the mobile communication terminal calculates the viewing angle according to the detected opening angle and changes the parameters for the 3D display, whereby excellent visibility is maintained even if the opening angle is changed.

Abstract: In an active matrix display device, one source line is arranged for every two pixels arranged along a gate line direction, and each two pixels which are adjacent to each other along the gate line direction across one of the source lines share the source line and are each connected to different gate lines. A gate driver block performs a first driving control which sequentially selects, in a first order, the gate lines in a pair of two gate lines corresponding to two pixels which are adjacent to each other along the gate line direction and are connected to different source lines. The gate driver block also performs a second driving control which sequentially selects, in a second order which is opposite to the first order, the gate lines in such a pair of two gate lines.

Abstract: An image display circuit supplies gray scale data according to a video signal to a liquid crystal panel to present a gray-scaled display and scans the liquid crystal panel N times during one field period of a video signal. The image display circuit includes a table ROM comparing a current video signal with a previous video signal of one frame before, and generates gray scale data for N times in accordance with the comparison result. Gray scale data greater than the gray scale of the current video signal is generated when the comparison result indicates that the gray scale of the current video signal is greater than that of the previous video signal, and gray scale data smaller than the gray scale of the current video signal is generated when the gray scale of the current video signal is found to be smaller than that of the previous video signal. Based on the generated gray scale data, the liquid crystal panel is driven with the proper gray scales.

Abstract: In driving a color liquid crystal panel having red, green and blue color filters, a color liquid crystal display apparatus sets signal electrodes of these three colors in a no-bias status during a non-display period of an image signal in such a manner as to permit at least two colors of the signal electrodes have mutually different effective voltages. The effective voltages in the no-bias state are set at values which provide the optimum value for .DELTA.n.multidot.d (.DELTA.n: birefringence) in accordance with cell gaps d on the signal electrodes, thereby minimizing the height difference between the color filters.
