Pixel-by-pixel local dimming for high-dynamic-range liquid crystal displays.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a high dynamic range (HDR) liquid crystal display (LCD) with pixel-level local dimming. The device structure consists of a pixelated LCD dimming panel to control the backlight intensity entering the master LCD panel. According to our analysis and test cell experiment, this dual-panel display system possesses exceedingly high contrast ratio (> 1,000,000:1) and high bit-depth (> 14 bits) at merely 5 volts. Meanwhile, to mitigate the Moiré effect induced by the cascaded thin-film transistor (TFT) backplanes, we separate the two LCD panels with a polarization-dependent scattering film. The pros and cons of this HDR display are discussed.

متن کاملAmbient contrast ratio of LCDs and OLED displays
We systematically analyze the ambient contrast ratio (ACR) of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays for smartphones, TVs, and public displays. The influencing factors such as display brightness, ambient light illuminance, and surface reflection are investigated in detail. At low ambient light conditions, high static contrast ratio plays a key role for A...
متن کاملOne Shot High Dynamic Range Photography Based on Hardware-level Tunable Mask
We proposed to use a transmission tunable mask in front of complementary metaloxidesemiconductor (CMOS) or lens to achieve high-dynamic-range (HDR). The mask can control the light that goes into the CMOS pixel by pixel. We demonstrate the validation of such method through simulation. An experiment setup is also achieved by using monochromatic liquid-crystal display (LCD) screen. We demonstrate ...

An adaptive dimming technique controls both LCD panel transmittance and its backlight luminance adequately and locally according to the input TV signal. The technique reduces the power consumption and also improves the picture quality. However, a steep change in backlight luminance distribution due to the application of the technique causes image degradation around the boundary of the segments ...
