  • Publication number: 20250014507
    Abstract: A display apparatus includes a display screen and a driver circuit. The display screen includes a plurality of light boxes. Each of the light boxes includes a plurality of light panels. Each of the light panels includes a plurality of display pixels. The driver circuit is coupled to the display screen. The driver circuit is configured to drives the display screen to display an image. The driver circuit performs a first compensation operation on the display screen according to a first compensation data, and the first compensation data is calculated on the basis of the light panels. The driver circuit performs a second compensation operation on the display screen according to a second compensation data, and the second compensation data is calculated on the basis of the display pixels.

  • Patent number: 11694608
    Abstract: A calibrating device includes a memory and a processor. The memory is configured to store at least one computer readable instruction. The processor is electrically coupled to the memory, and configured to access and execute the at least one computer readable instruction to: analyze an image of a target region which a seam between two LED panels disposed side by side is in, to obtain characteristic data associated with the seam; compare the characteristic data associated with the seam with a predetermined value to generate a comparison result; and adjust grayscale data of pixels which are arranged in two lines of the two LED panels and adjacent to the seam, based on the comparison result, for adjusting luminance-chromaticity of the pixels, wherein the two lines are in a first direction or a second direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

  • Patent number: 11676265
    Abstract: A method and an image processing device for mura detection on a display are proposed. The method includes the following steps. An original image of the display is received and segmented into region of interest (ROI) patches. A predetermined range of spatial frequency components are filtered out from the ROI patches to generate filtered ROI patches. A mura defect is identified from the display according to the filtered ROI patches and predetermined mura patterns.

  • Patent number: 10989968
    Abstract: An optical element configured to allow an image beam passing through is provided. The optical element includes a first and a second birefringent layer and a gas layer between the first and the second birefringent layer. An extension direction of the gas layer is inclined with respect to an extension direction of the optical element, wherein the image beam passes through the first birefringent layer, the gas layer and the second birefringent layer in sequence. A first and a second sub image beam having different deflection angles are generated from the image beam when the image beam enters the gas layer. After the first and the second sub image beam are emitted from the second birefringent layer, a transmission path of the first and the second sub image beam are offset from each other by an offset distance, thereby improving resolution of an image to be viewed.
