Abstract: If the picture complexity is low then the number of pixels in a frame may be reduced. For example, pixel-to-pixel variation in terms of RGB color values can be used to determine the complexity of the frame. Frames can be characterized, in one embodiment, as non-complex frames with less pixel variation and complex frames with very high pixel variation. The high PPI may be used only for complex frames while non-complex frames can use low PPI. This method reduces memory fetching and pixel processing within the display engine and thereby saves power.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may a performance-enhanced computing system comprising a sensor for measuring luminance values corresponding to light focused onto the sensor at a plurality of pixel locations, a memory including a set of instructions, and a processor. The processor executes a set of instructions causing the system to generate a multi-segment tone mapping curve, generate a set of tone mapping values corresponding to the multi-segment tone mapping curve for equally spaced input values between zero and one for storage into a look up table, and process the luminance values using the look up table to apply the tone mapping curve to the luminance values of the pixels.

Abstract: A number of frames may be transferred in one frame period to a display panel followed by at least one frame period during which no frame is transferred. During this link idle time, the display panel continues to work on the transferred frames. However, the link and/or graphics processor may be powered down during this time to reduce power consumption.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to techniques to provide dynamic pixel density adjustment for display panels not driven by backlight are described. In an embodiment, logic causes a first plurality of pixels of a display panel to be turned off in response to an indication that a charge level of a power supply, coupled to supply electrical power to the display panel, has dropped below a threshold level. The display panel is not backlight drive (such as an OLED or QDOT display panels. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: Described herein are technologies for color transformation in a graphics processing hardware using at least two hierarchical one or multi-dimensional lookup-tables (LUT) in order to obtain a minimized overall LUT storage space yet achieves transformation output of desired accuracy. Particularly, a first interpolation of an input signal is implemented using a main LUT and successive interpolations using higher order difference LUTs. Outputs of the first and successive interpolations are then combined to generate a transformed pixel output.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to provide extended graphics processing capabilities are disclosed. A disclosed example method involves sending a display panel parameter to a shared library module. The display panel parameter is sent by a programmable driver interface in communication between the shared library module and a graphics hardware device driver. The shared library module includes a first graphics processing capability. The graphics hardware device driver includes a second graphics processing capability different from the first graphics processing capability. The example method also involves performing a render operation via the programmable driver interface on a frame buffer based on the first graphics processing capability. The first graphics processing capability is received at the programmable driver interface from the shared library module based on the display panel parameter. The frame buffer is output to a display.

Abstract: By converting a first color space to a second color space, using a two-dimensional lookup table in said second color space, and converting from said second color space to said first color space, it may be possible to use one or more two-dimensional lookup tables (LUTs) to do a task conventionally handled by three-dimensional lookup tables. This may reduce storage requirements and memory bandwidth requirements in some embodiments. In general a color pixel with N color components can be processed with n number of M dimensional LUT where M<N and n is some chosen positive integer number.
