  • Patent number: 7978201
    Abstract: A method for compensating an image produced by image means for implementing image information takes account of ambient illumination. Luminance of external background illumination around the image means is measured. The measured luminance of the background illumination is compared with preset tristimulus values and a reflectance factor of the image means, a comparison result is computed, and a control signal is generated to compensate luminance and chroma of an image. Luminance and chroma of the image means are compensated in response to the control signal.

  • Patent number: 7894860
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for displaying a plurality of different images in a mobile terminal in an external display device and a display unit in various modes. The mobile terminal operates according to a Different Image In and Out (DIIO) mode when the external display device is connected to the mobile terminal. When the external display device is not connected to the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal displays the plurality of different images in the display unit of the mobile terminal by operating according to a Picture-In-Picture (PIP) mode or an Overlay mode, so as to take into consideration size limitations of the display unit of the mobile terminal.

  • Patent number: 7826111
    Abstract: Disclosed is color conversion method using a color look-up table. The method includes the steps of: generating a color look-up table using information on the difference of each channel before and after a conversion of each color; and converting the colors using the generated color look-up table. The step of generating the color look-up table includes identifying the maximum difference value among several difference values and generating a first compressed table to initially compress the difference values using the maximum difference value.

  • Publication number: 20080025602
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for performing color conversion using a color cache is disclosed. The apparatus includes a color converter for acquiring an after conversion color by performing a color conversion operation of a color of a predetermined pixel, a color cache for storing before conversion colors and after conversion colors of previous pixels color-converted by the color converter and searching for the same color by comparing the color of the predetermined pixel to the stored colors before conversion when the predetermined pixel is input, and a controller for transmitting the color of the predetermined pixel to the color cache, controlling the color cache to search whether the same color as that of the predetermined pixel is stored in the color cache, acquiring a after conversion color from the color converter or the color cache according to the search result, and transmitting the color after conversion to the outside.
