Displays are provided with circuitry performing color correction to compensate for the displays' luminance and chrominance transfer characteristics. Some techniques are suitable for RGBW displays and for subpixel-rendered displays. Some displays include an external light source (e.g. a backlight unit in LCDs), and the color correction is coordinated with dynamic control of the light source.

A display device has a display panel and a driver. The display panel displays an image signal. The driver provides the display panel with a frame data in a first sub frame using a first gamma curve that has a first gamma value, and provides the display panel with the frame data in a second sub frame using a second gamma curve that has a second gamma value, wherein the second gamma value is greater than the first gamma value. Therefore, the display device may have an improved brightness and display moving pictures in a high display quality.

An organic electroluminescence (EL) display device assembly includes a substrate, an organic EL portion, an optical loss prevention layer, and a fine space layer. The organic EL portion has a first electrode layer, an organic luminescent layer, and a second electrode layer which are each patterned and stacked on the upper surface of the substrate. The optical loss prevention layer is used to increase light bleeding efficiency. The fine space layer is formed between the optical loss prevention layer and a layer facing the optical loss prevention layer and is filled with a gas or evacuated.

A light source optical system capable of forming an image having good balance in brightness of red, blue, and green color light, having high overall brightness, and having good color reproducibility, on a screen is provided. The light source optical system has a first lamp, a second lamp, and a condensing optical system for synthesizing a first light emitted from the first lamp and a second light emitted from the second lamp to form irradiation light. The light source optical system is characterized in that the first light and the second light have mutually differing spectral distributions.

In order to obtain a satisfactory image by making a peak luminance of an image to be displayed large and suppressing an occurrence of unnecessary period, there is provided a display driving method for driving a display with a plurality of scanning wirings and a plurality of modulation wirings, comprising: a step of supplying a scan selection signal to a scanning wiring selected out of the plural scanning wirings for each horizontal scanning period; and a step of supplying a modulation signal modulated in accordance with image data to the plural modulation wirings for each horizontal scanning period, in which the selection period of the scan selection signal varies between at least two horizontal scanning periods in a vertical scanning period.

A system and method are presented for use in imaging the patient's retina. A light source unit is provided including a light emitting diode (LED) arrangement comprising multiple LEDs of different wavelength ranges. A light guide arrangement is used with the LEDs arrangement and is configured for coupling light from the LEDs and providing output light beams of a desired shape. The illuminating light is directed towards a region on the retina, and light returned from the illuminated region is collected and directed to an image detector unit. The invention enables the use of LED light at high intensity as required in the eye retina imaging, while maintaining the required high-quality imaging. Also, the invention provides for simultaneous or quasi-simultaneous as well as high-speed imaging in FA and ICG imaging procedures, thereby satisfying a long felt need in ophthalmology. Also, the invention provides for automated illumination or light exposure control to optimize overall light exposure to the patient eye and best acquired image quality in terms of brightness, contrast and image signal-to-noise ratio.

On a substrate, the pattern of the first conductive layer is defined, that is, a gate line combination including gate pads, scanning lines and gate electrodes. A gate insulating layer, a semiconductor layer, a doped semiconductor layer and a second conductive layer are deposited on the substrate and the above-mentioned gate line combination in sequence. A photoresist layer is overlaid on the second conductive layer. The photoresist layer within the aperture areas is fully exposed. Using a half-tone mask or a slit pattern to make parts of the photoresist layer lying on the gate pads and the gate electrodes are not exposed to its full depth. As a result, the photoresist pattern formed varies in thickness. After being processed with drying etching and wet etching for several times, all the layers previously deposited within the aperture areas can be totally etched and removed. However, as regards the layers deposited on the gate pads and the gate electrodes, etching only takes place in those layers above the semiconductor layer. Then, an organic protection layer is laid on the substrate and the above-mentioned structure, and the holes, which are to function as the passageways for the transparent conductive layer to contact the metallic layer, are defined on the organic protection layer. Then, the gate pads are exposed out of holes above them, using dry etching again. Lastly, the pattern of the transparent conductive layer is defined on the organic protection layer and in the plurality of holes.

Provided are an image brightness controlling apparatus and method, and an adaptive brightness controlling apparatus and method based on the brightness degree and / or brightness range of an image. The image brightness controlling apparatus includes a brightness increment arithmetic unit for outputting a brightness increment for a pixel, and an individual component brightness increment arithmetic unit for outputting the brightness increments of individual components constituting the pixel in response to the brightness increment for a pixel. The individual component brightness increment arithmetic unit multiplies the brightness increment of the pixel by each of the unit vectors of the components constituting the pixel to obtain the brightness increments of the individual components. The image brightness controlling apparatus further includes an adder for adding the components constituting the pixel to the brightness increments of the components. The image brightness controlling apparatus and the adaptive image brightness controlling apparatus can maintain the sense of color of an image (e.g., the hue or chroma of an image) while increasing the brightness degree and brightness range of an image.
