  • Patent number: 9374575
    Abstract: A method of processing three-dimensional image data includes demodulating a first transmission signal into image data which is image data for a left-eye or image data for a right-eye, wherein the first transmission signal is received during an enable period of a frame; demodulating a second transmission signal into identification data, where the second transmission signal is received during a blanking period of the frame, and the identification data identifies the image data of a subsequent frame; identifying whether the image data of the subsequent frame is the image data for the left-eye or the image data for the right-eye based on the identification data; and processing the image data based on an identified result from the identifying whether the image data of the subsequent frame is the image data for the left-eye or the image data for the right-eye.

  • Patent number: 9047828
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display includes: a liquid crystal panel including a first region and a second region; a first signal controller which generates a first representative value representing image signals of the first region; a second signal controller which generates a second representative value representing image signals of the second region and transmits the second representative value to the first signal controller; a light source unit which irradiates light to the liquid crystal panel; and a light source driver which controls luminance of the light source unit. The first signal controller transmits a luminance of the light source unit to the light source driver. The luminance of the light source unit is calculated from the first representative value and the second representative value.

  • Patent number: 8638339
    Abstract: A method is for correcting pixel data provided to a display apparatus. The display apparatus includes a display panel having a plurality of pixels and a light source module having a plurality of light-emitting blocks. The method includes determining a pixel luminance that is a luminance of light provided to one of the pixels; and generating correction data to correct the pixel data, the correction data being generated based on the pixel luminance and a maximum emission luminance that is a maximum luminance of the light emitted from one of the light-emitting blocks.

  • Patent number: 8482509
    Abstract: A method for driving a display apparatus, according to one or more embodiments of the present invention, provides a luminance representative value of a unit light-emitting block that may be determined from an external image signal of a plurality of image blocks corresponding to the unit light-emitting block including a plurality of light sources. A luminance compensation value of the unit light-emitting block may be calculated by compensating the luminance representative value. Pixel data of the external image signal in a central area of the unit light-emitting block and a boundary area may be corrected based on the luminance compensation value. A driving signal may be provided to the unit light-emitting block based on the luminance compensation value. Accordingly, a phenomenon in which a boundary of the unit light-emitting block is visible is removed so that the display quality of all image may be enhanced.

  • Publication number: 20130141473
    Abstract: A method of driving a display panel includes: applying a data signal to the display panel during a sub-active interval based on a data enable signal, and blocking the data signal applied to the display panel during the sub-blanking interval. In such an embodiment, the data enable signal is activated during the sub-active interval and deactivated during the sub-blanking interval, a frame is divided into a plurality of sub-frames, and each of the sub-frames is divided into the sub-active interval and the sub-blanking interval.
