A display optimization and display driving method and apparatus, display apparatus, and storage medium are disclosed. The display optimization method includes: selecting an irregular-shaped edge of a display panel, calculating an area ratio of an area of a display region of a pixel unit passed by the irregular-shaped edge and an area of the pixel unit; and determining a grayscale parameter of the pixel unit according to the area ratio.

An apparatus, method, and computer readable medium that access a frame buffer of a graphics processing unit (GPU), analyze, in the frame buffer, a frame representing displayed data, based on the analyzed frame, identify a reference patch that includes an instruction to retrieve content, generate an overlay including an augmentation layer which includes the content, superimpose the overlay onto the displayed data such that the content is viewable while a portion of the base layer is obscured, detect a user input, determine a location of the user input in the augmentation layer, associate the location in the augmentation layer with a target location in the base layer, and associate, within memory, the target location with an operation such that the user input in the augmentation layer activates an input in the base layer.

A messaging apparatus for wearable items. The messaging apparatus may comprise a light source, at least one sensor to detect an event, and a controller to control the flashing of the light source in response to the detection of the event. The controlling of the flashing of the light source may generate at least one visible element that is visible to a viewer. Further, the light source may not be adapted in the form of the at least one visible element, but rather, the controlled flashing of the light source may be in the form of the at least one visible element.

A display control device includes a storage configured to store invariant image data serving as a source of displaying an invariant portion of a display image to be displayed on a display; a data receiver configured to receive format designation data for designating a format of the display image and original data for generating variable image data serving as a source of displaying a variable portion of the display image; a variable image data generator configured to generate the variable image data from the original data; a buffer configured to store the invariant image data and the variable image data; an image data storage configured to select the invariant image data from the storage based on the format designation data to store the invariant image data in the buffer, and store, in the buffer, the variable image data generated by the variable image data generator; and a display controller configured to execute display processing for causing the display to display the display image based on the invariant image data stored in the buffer and the variable image data stored in the buffer.

In a normal state, a video input interface receives video data. In a setup state, a control input interface receives multiple items of compressed image data, and stores the compressed image data in memory. In the normal state, a decoder reads one item from among the multiple items of compressed image data from the memory according to an instruction signal that indicates graphics data to be displayed, and decodes the compressed image data thus read so as to reproduce the original graphics data before compression. A multiplexer superimposes the graphics data on the video data.

An input display device includes: a processor to execute a program; and a memory to store the program which, when executed by the processor, results in performance of steps including: acquiring a character string; receiving a touch drawing operation; detecting a state of the touch drawing operation; generating a track image showing the track, the track image having a line width corresponding to the state of the touch drawing operation; displaying the generated track image on a display; and superimposing the acquired character string on the displayed track image in accordance with a character size corresponding to the line width of the track image.
