  • Publication number: 20080022207
    Abstract: A method of displaying text corresponding to an audio file on an audio player includes selecting a first audio file and loading a first text file corresponding to the first audio file. A character set file is generated and contains a list only those characters included in all text files stored in the audio player. The method further includes calculating a rate at which text is displayed on a display device electrically coupled to the audio player according to a predetermined relationship between a duration of the first audio file and a size of the first text file. Next, texts stored in the first text file are displayed on the display device at the calculated rate while simultaneously outputting audio signals decoded from the first audio file.

  • Publication number: 20060221030
    Abstract: In a displaying method for use in an image display, an original gray scale is divided into a higher gray scale and a lower gray scale. Further, the color subpixels are divided into two groups corresponding to the higher and lower gray scales, respectively. The gray scale to be expressed by each subpixel is calibrated by weighing the original higher or lower gray scale for the pixel and the adjacent pixels and summing up the results. The color shift problem due to different visual angles can therefore be solved.

  • Publication number: 20040257599
    Abstract: The invention provides a color-correcting device and method for correcting the colors, by use of a well-calibrated first image forming apparatus, sensed by a second image forming apparatus identical to said first image forming apparatus. A first image, associated with a standard color card, is previously captured by the first image forming apparatus under a standard environment. The color-correcting device and method of the invention first captures a second image associated with the standard color card by the second image forming apparatus under the standard environment, and then, based on the first image and the second image, generates a color correction matrix in the second image forming apparatus. When the second image forming apparatus is turned on , the color correction matrix is loaded, and the colors sensed by the second image forming apparatus are corrected in accordance with the color correction matrix.
