  • Patent number: 11501688
    Abstract: A display device includes a display panel including a plurality of pixels, a gate driver configured to provide gate signals to the plurality of pixels, a data driver configured to provide data signals to the plurality of pixels, a correction data memory configured to store mura correction data, and a controller configured to control the gate driver and the data driver. The controller includes a pattern detection block configured to detect a set pattern in input image data, and a mura correction block configured to perform a mura correction operation that corrects the input image data based on the mura correction data in response to the set pattern not being detected, and to not perform the mura correction operation in accordance with the set pattern being detected.

  • Patent number: 9262979
    Abstract: A display device may include a display panel that includes a first region and a second region. The display device may include a controller that may receive a first gamma value and a second gamma value, use the first gamma value or a third gamma value to generate first image data, use the first gamma value and the second gamma value to generate a fourth gamma value, and use the fourth gamma value to generate second image data. The display device may include a data driver that may use the first image data and the second image data to generate a first data voltage set and a second data voltage set. The first region may use the first data voltage set to display a first portion of an image. The second region may use the second data voltage set to display a second portion of the image.
