  • Patent number: 12148353
    Abstract: A display controller includes a resource controller configured to receive layer information about each of a first layer and a second layer that are output at different times through a display panel during a unit frame. The display controller includes a data input direct memory access (DMA) configured to receive first image data corresponding to the first layer and second image data corresponding to the second layer, and a hardware resource configured to receive the first and second image data from the data input DMA, process the received first and second image data according to the layer information, and generate first layer data of the first layer and second layer data of the second layer. The resource controller is configured to control the data input DMA according to the layer information to determine an order in which the first and second image data are provided to the hardware resource.

  • Patent number: 10595047
    Abstract: A wireless display subsystem includes a hardware composition generator, a hardware video encoder, and a wireless hardware transport stream multiplexer. The hardware composition generator reads video data from a memory device and generates video frame data by synthesizing the video data. The hardware video encoder receives the video frame data in an on-the-fly (OTF) manner from the hardware composition generator and generates a video stream by encoding the video frame data. The wireless hardware transport stream multiplexer receives the video stream in the OTF manner from the hardware video encoder, reads an audio stream from the memory device, multiplexes the video stream and the audio stream, and generates a wireless display packet by packetizing the multiplexed video and audio streams.

  • Patent number: 9830740
    Abstract: A graphic processing unit includes a geometry processing unit and a rendering processing unit. The geometry processing unit is configured to receive vertexes and to generate at least one primitive using the vertexes. The rendering processing unit is configured to convert the generated at least one primitive into fragments, to perform fragment shading on the converted fragments, and to perform anti-aliasing on the fragments on which the fragment shading has been performed. The rendering processing unit performs the anti-aliasing on first color data and second color data that is different from the first color data using different operations from each other.

  • Publication number: 20150062171
    Abstract: A method for multi image layer composition includes dividing a frame buffer into tile areas, for each the area, determining image layers to be composited, for each tile area, generating a composite image layer by compositing its determined image layers, and merging the composite image layers into an overall composite image layer, wherein generating the composite image layers for at least one of the tiles comprises reading image layer information of the image layers from a top image layer to a bottom image layer, determining whether to read a lower image layer using the information of the image layers thereabove, if the lower image layer is determined not to be read, defining the image layer above the lower image layer as an effective bottom image layer, and compositing the effective bottom image layer with upper image layers, and not compositing the effective bottom image layer with an image layer thereunder.

  • Publication number: 20110188230
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical sheet and a composite sheet with a moire fringe and a backlight assembly having the same. The present invention provides an optical sheet including: a first pattern layer on which a first pattern array is formed and a second pattern layer on which a second pattern array generating a moire fringe by overlapping with the first pattern array is formed. With the present invention, it can expand a viewing angle while improving luminance. In addition, the number of LED light sources mounted on the backlight assembly is reduced, making it possible to reduce production costs.
