  • Patent number: 8824788
    Abstract: A mode coding unit for an image compression device includes a submode determination unit, a variable bit determination unit, and a coding unit. The submode determination unit is configured to determine a submode of an image block. The submode indicates a matching degree between an upper bit of the image block and an upper bit of a reference block. The variable bit determination unit is configured to determine a size of primary color compression information fields corresponding to primary colors in a reference pixel in the image block based on a relational size of color information of the primary colors. The coding unit is configured to generate compressed image data by coding the image block based on the submode and the size of the primary color compression information fields.

  • Publication number: 20100164903
    Abstract: An electrophoresis display device adapted to prevent sensing errors and to reduce electric power consumption is disclosed. The electrophoresis display device includes a thin film transistor array substrate and an ink film. The thin film transistor array substrate includes a sensor configured to generate a sensing signal, and an output transistor configured to be connected to the sensor and to control the output of the sensing signal. The ink film includes a common electrode and an ink layer, which are formed on one side surface of a base film, and a floating electrode formed on the other side surface of the base film. The output transistor outputs the sensing signal when a touch current is generated on the floating electrode. The electrophoresis display device only outputs the sensing signal when a substantial touch occurs. Therefore, the electrophoresis display device can prevent sensing errors and reduce electric power consumption.
