  • Patent number: 11041761
    Abstract: An optical sensing circuit includes a capacitor, and a light sensing unit, a compensation unit, and a switching element coupled to the capacitor. The light sensing unit includes a first light sensing transistor for sensing a first color. The compensation unit includes a second light sensing transistor for sensing a second color. The spectra of the second color and the first color do not overlap each other. When the light illuminates, the light sensing unit generates a first current and the compensation unit generates a second current. The second current reduces the magnitude of the charging or discharging current when the capacitor is charged or discharged by the first current. When the switching element turned on, the voltage of the capacitor is read to determine the color of the light. The voltage level of the gate of the first or second light sensing transistor is adjustable.

  • Publication number: 20140369072
    Abstract: A transparent display apparatus is provided. The display apparatus includes a plurality of white sub-pixels and a plurality of color sub-pixels that are mixedly arranged. The display apparatus also includes a control module for controlling the white sub-pixels and the color sub-pixels. When the display apparatus is in a transparent mode, the control module reduces or stops light emitting from the color sub-pixels and allows at least a part of ambient light behind the white sub-pixels to emit from the white sub-pixels to achieve the see-through effect. When the display apparatus is in a display mode, the control module adjusts at least one of the white or color sub-pixels to ensure that light from the white sub-pixels is far less than light from the color sub-pixels.
