Abstract: Image processing circuitry may include burn-in compensation circuitry that receives image data indicative of luminance outputs for display pixels of an electronic display and compensates the image data for burn-in related aging associated with the display pixels, generating compensated image data. Moreover, compensating the image data may include applying gains based on estimated amounts of aging associated with the display pixels and estimated amounts of current to be delivered to the display pixels. The image processing circuitry may also include burn-in statistics circuitry that tracks the estimated amounts of aging based on the compensated image data.

Such an electronic device may include image processing circuitry and an electronic display. The image processing circuitry may receive image data and analyze the image data for risk of image burn-in and, based at least in part on the analysis of the image data, reduce a risk of image burn-in at least in part by reducing a local maximum pixel luminance value in at least one of a plurality of regions of the image data over time or by reducing a dynamic range headroom of the image data. The electronic display may display the image data with a reduced risk of image burn-in on the pixels of the electronic display.

The display pipeline may receive image data and process the image data to determine the pixel data. The display pipeline may include burn-in compensation circuitry to apply gains to the image data based at least in part on burn-in statistics to generate the pixel data. The gain to be applied to the image data for a pixel of the electronic display is determined by the burn-in compensation circuitry, based at least in part on an emission duty cycle of the pixel, to compensate the image data for the pixel for burn-in related aging of the pixel.

Abstract: A display may include pixels (such as light-emitting diode pixels) that are susceptible aging effects (burn-in). To help avoid visible artifacts caused by burn-in during operation of the display, compensation circuitry may be used to compensate image data for the display. An optical sensor may be included behind the pixels to directly measure pixel brightness levels. The optical sensor may provide optical sensor data from testing operations to the compensation circuitry. The optical sensor may gather data during burn-in testing operations. During the burn-in testing operations, pixel groups including both high-usage pixels and low-usage pixels may sequentially emit light while the optical sensor gathers data. Brightness differences between the high-usage pixels and low-usage pixels may be used to characterize pixel aging in the display and compensate image data to mitigate visible artifacts caused by burn-in. The optical sensor may also gather data during global brightness testing operations.

Abstract: An electronic device such as a wristwatch device or other device may have a display. The display may be used to continuously display information such as watch face information. A watch face image on the display may contain watch face elements such as watch face hands, watch face indices, and complications. To reduce burn-in risk for watch face elements, control circuitry in the electronic device may impose burn-in constraints on attributes of the watch face elements such as peak luminance constraints, dwell time constraints, color constraints, constraints on the shape of each element, and constraints on element style. These constraints may help avoid situations in which static elements such as watch face indices create more burn-in than dynamic elements such as watch face hands.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a display. A content generator may generate frames of image data to be displayed on the display. The display may have an array of pixels that emit light to display images. The pixels may contain light-emitting devices such as organic light-emitting diodes, quantum dot light-emitting diodes, and light-emitting diodes formed from discrete semiconductor dies. As a result of aging, the light producing capabilities of the light-emitting devices may degrade over time. The electronic device may have a temperature sensor that gathers temperature measurements and an ambient light sensor. A pixel luminance degradation compensator may apply compensation factors to uncorrected pixel luminance values associated with the frames of image data to produce corresponding corrected pixel luminance values for the display. The compensation factors may be based on aging history information such as pixel luminance history, ambient light exposure, and temperature measurements.
