Abstract: When a wide color gamut display displays video based on a video signal that complies with a narrower color reproduction range standard, in order to make full use of the feature of the wide color gamut display capable of displaying highly saturated and vivid reds, while eliminating the problem of seeing glaring images in the part of the red color region near the highest brightness and saturation, a video processing circuit (2) reduces and corrects the signal value of the input video signal, which represents the colors within the color range to be corrected, which is within a specified saturation range from the highest saturation to the middle saturation inside a specified hue range centered on the red hue in the color reproduction range (an expanded color reproduction range wider than the sRGB standard color reproduction range) of a liquid crystal panel (4), and which is within a specified brightness range from the highest brightness to the middle brightness inside that range, so that the saturation and bright

Abstract: When conducting video display with a wide color gamut display based on a video signal conforming to a standard (sRGB standard and the like) having a color reproduction range narrower than that of the wide color gamut display, the video processing circuit 2 corrects a color in a prescribed correction target color range partly including a red hue reference range as a center part in the color range of an equal hue from achromatic colors having the lowest saturation to red having the highest saturation in an expanded color reproduction range but not including red having the highest saturation in the expanded color reproduction range, so that the hue may change to a hue akin to yellow in the expanded color reproduction range. In so doing, the hue in the red hue reference range changes to red hue in the color reproduction range conforming to the sRBG standard.

Abstract: In order to simply and easily implement an elimination of a color deviation and a color adjustment for a color correction to a favorable color in an arbitrary portion of a color region in a color reproduction range, a video processing circuit 2 corrects a luminance, a saturation and a hue of a color by the correction quantity corresponding to a reference correction coefficient with regard to a signal value of an input video signal indicating a color within a designated color region defined by a designated range of the luminance, the saturation and the hue when the color indicated by the signal value is a color in the center of the designated color region or at a core for occupying a predetermined range around the center.

Abstract: It is expected to provide an image display apparatus and image display method that can reduce the risk that an image quality is undermined due to a halo phenomenon caused by the leak of light passing through a non-corresponding color filter from a LED. The image display apparatus can respectively control luminous efficiencies of plural color LEDs, i.e., R-LED (11a), G-LED (11b) and B-LED (11c) that emit light through a color filter to a displaying unit. The image display apparatus obtains luminous efficiencies for a frame of RGB image signal (S2), calculates a light leak amount and then detects whether the halo phenomenon may occur or not (S3-S5). When the halo phenomenon is considered to occur, the luminous efficiencies of LEDs (11a, 11b, 11c) included in the liquid crystal display apparatus are controlled to make the light from the LEDs (11a, 11b, 11c) become close to white light (S8).

Abstract: When each value of luminance signals of three primary colors in the primary video signal is less than the output lower limit value, in short, when the gradation level is negative, the negative gradation level of the present primary color is, in accordance with its magnitude, in other words, in accordance with the absolute value of the negative gradation level, replaced with positive gradation levels of other two primary colors. Therefore, in accordance with A VIDEO SIGNAL CONVERTER of this invention, even when the primary video signal includes a signal value having a negative gradation level, in short, even when one or more of each signal value of RGB is below the output lower limit value, a color according to the combination of those gradation levels (a combination of each level of primary colors (RGB)) can be reproduced (displayed) by a display means.
