Abstract: Sub-pixel rendering with gamma adjustment allows the luminance for the sub-pixel arrangement to match the non-linear gamma response of the human eye's luminance channel, while the chrominance can match the linear response of the human eye's chrominance channels. The gamma correction allows the sub-pixel rendering to operate independently of the actual gamma of a display device. The sub-pixel rendering techniques with gamma adjustment may be optimized for the gamma transfer curve of a display device in order to improve response time, dot inversion balance, and contrast.

Abstract: A transflective display panel substantially comprises a plurality of a sub-pixel grouping substantially comprising a plurality of at least first and second color sub-pixels. The plurality of the sub-pixel grouping forms an array across said display panel in a plurality of rows and columns. The first color sub-pixel is a substantially dark color sub-pixel disposed in the plurality of the sub-pixel grouping across said display panel so as to form a substantially vertical line down said display. Each sub-pixel further comprises an optical via, and the optical vias are formed in non-uniform positions upon said dark color sub-pixels.

Abstract: The present application discloses a number of embodiments for the mapping of input image data onto display panels in which the subpixel data format being input may differ from the subpixel data format suitable for the display panel. Systems and methods are disclosed to map input image data onto panels with different ordering of subpixel data that the input, different number of subpixel data sets or different number of color primaries that the input image data.

Abstract: System and methods are disclosed for improving the off-normal axis viewing angle by applying different filters if one colored sub-pixel data is driven close to 100% luminance while other colored sub-pixel data is driven close to 50% luminance values. Systems and methods for adjusting the viewing characteristics of the display system are also disclosed.
