  • Patent number: 11971633
    Abstract: An electrode structure includes: a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged separately from each other; and a plurality of dielectric layers laminated in a first direction with respect to the plurality of pixel electrodes, in which the plurality of dielectric layers includes: a first dielectric layer that spreads over the plurality of pixel electrodes in a direction intersecting with the first direction; and a second dielectric layer that includes dielectric material having a refractive index higher than that of the first dielectric layer, sandwiches the first dielectric layer together with the plurality of pixel electrodes, and has a slit at a position overlapping space between pixel electrodes adjacent when viewed from the first direction.

  • Publication number: 20060028541
    Abstract: A video signal processor which can reduce the noise of quantized video signal. A bit-added video signal is prepared by adding a bit string of m?n bits to the least significant bit side of the input video signal. A smoothed video signal is prepared by performing smoothing processing on this bit-added video signal. The difference between the bit-added video signal and the smoothed video signal is compared with a predetermined threshold value. Either the bit-added video signal or the smoothed video signal is selected according to the comparison result. The selected video signal is output as the bit-extended video signal.

  • Patent number: 6965414
    Abstract: A telecine conversion method detecting apparatus which determines that an input video signal is a telecine converted video signal generated from a movie film in accordance with a 2-3 pull-down method when detecting that an inter-frame difference accumulated value of a current field of the input video signal is equal to or less than a threshold value for still field determination, that each inter-frame difference accumulated value of four fields preceding the current field is equal to or greater than a threshold value for motion field determination, and that the inter-frame difference accumulated value of the current field is less than each corrected value calculated by multiplying each of the inter-frame difference accumulated values of the four preceding fields by a predetermined coefficient.
