Abstract: The OLED voltage of a selected pixel is extracted from the pixel produced when the pixel is programmed so that the pixel current is a function of the OLED voltage. One method for extracting the OLED voltage is to first program the pixel in a way that the current is not a function of OLED voltage, and then in a way that the current is a function of OLED voltage. During the latter stage, the programming voltage is changed so that the pixel current is the same as the pixel current when the pixel was programmed in a way that the current was not a function of OLED voltage. The difference in the two programming voltages is then used to extract the OLED voltage.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide systems including linear material and tracking tags. A first tracking tag may be at least initially arranged on the liner material. The first tracking tag may also include beacon transmission circuitry including one or more batteries, a top layer, a bottom layer including an adhesive, and an activation mechanism. The activation mechanism may be configured to activate the first tracking tag and cause the beacon transmission circuitry to transmit beacon signals in order to enable tracking of the object.

Abstract: A system reads a desired circuit parameter from a pixel circuit that includes a light emitting device, a drive device to provide a programmable drive current to the light emitting device, a programming input, and a storage device to store a programming signal. One embodiment of the extraction system turns off the drive device and supplies a predetermined voltage from an external source to the light emitting device, discharges the light emitting device until the light emitting device turns off, and then reads the voltage on the light emitting device while that device is turned off. The voltages on the light emitting devices in a plurality of pixel circuits may be read via the same external line, at different times.

Abstract: A system for compensating for non-uniformities in an array of solid state devices in a display panel displays images in the panel, and extracts the outputs of a pattern based on structural non-uniformities of the panel, across the panel, for each area of the structural non-uniformities. Then the structural non-uniformities are quantified, based on the values of the extracted outputs, and input signals to the display panel are modified to compensate for the structural non-uniformities. Random non-uniformities are compensated by extracting low-frequency non-uniformities across the panel by applying patterns, and taking images of the pattern. The area and resolution of the image are adjusted to match the panel by creating values for pixels in the display, and then low-frequency non-uniformities across the panel are compensated, based on the created values.

Abstract: A method and system control an OLED display to achieve desired color points and brightness levels in an array of pixels in which each pixel includes at least three sub-pixels having different colors and at least one white sub-pixel. The method and system select a plurality of reference points in the pixel content domain with known color points and brightness levels. For each set of three sub-pixels of different colors, the method and system determine the share of each sub-pixel to produce the color point and brightness level of each selected reference point, and select the maximum share determined for each sub-pixel as peak brightness needed from that sub-pixel.
