  • Patent number: 10629152
    Abstract: An image signal preparation circuit receives a serial format original image signal representing an image to be displayed from a host and generates a prepared image signal by changing an order of a plurality of pieces of pixel data constituting each display line of the image depending on a connection relationship between output terminals of a driver IC of a liquid crystal module and source lines (data signal lines) of a display unit. The prepared image signal is input into the driver IC, and the source lines are correctly driven by data signals, respectively, output from the driver IC based on the prepared image signal.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9118910
    Abstract: There are provided 3D image glasses which are ready for a plurality of methods (output patterns of a timing signal) different from one another and moreover which are adaptable for various types of 3D image display devices. A ROM 6 stores a plurality of output patterns, and a plurality of command signals corresponding to the output patterns. A microcomputer 5 selects from the ROM 6 an output pattern coincident with an output pattern of a timing signal received from the 3D image display device, and moreover, by a command signal of the selected output pattern, controls opening and closing of right-eye and left-eye liquid-crystal shutters in synchronization with the received timing signal.
