There are many instances where a standard dynamic range (“SDR”) overlay is displayed over high dynamic range (“HDR”) content on HDR displays. Because the overlay is SDR, the maximum brightness of the overlay is much lower than the maximum brightness of the HDR content, which can lead to the SDR elements being obscured if those elements have at least some transparency. The present disclosure provides techniques including modifying the luminance of either or both of the HDR and SDR content when an SDR layer with some transparency is displayed over HDR content. A variety of techniques are provided. In one example, a fixed adjustment is applied to pixels of one or both of the SDR layer and the HDR layer. The fixed adjustment comprises decreasing the luminance of the HDR layer and/or increasing the luminance of the SDR layer. In another example, a variable adjustment is applied.

The present invention relates to a display control device, a display control method, and a program, enabling realization of various playing display using frame images subjected to compositing processing as a motion transition image. A recording medium has recorded therein, as a series of recording frame image data, each of composited image data generated by sequentially performing image compositing processing for each input of frame image data, each of composited image data being enabled of moving image display in which a moving subject image in each frame image data is sequentially placed so as to be arrayed in a predetermined direction, with each recording frame image data being playable. In accordance with operation of an operation input unit such as a touch panel, a frame position to be played is determined out of the series of recording frame image data, and playing of the recording frame image data at the determined frame position is executed. Thus, a scene which the user desires to view out of the motion transition image can be easily viewed.

Each interesting location on a screen of a portable unit is marked by a transparent flag or marker. Then, when the user scales up (magnifies the image) the map to view one of the locations, transparent arrows are placed on the screen identified with transparent location markers indicating the direction the user needs to move to arrive at the remaining locations marked earlier by markers. Either the portable unit can be moved while the map remains stationary or the device remains stationary while the map is moved by the touch screen. By following each transparent arrow, which constantly calculates the new direction as the view of the map changes, the user arrives at the desired location, often in a shortest distance, without getting lost. Once this location is viewed, the user can then proceed to follow a second transparent arrow corresponding to a second desired location. This can be done for each marked location without changing the scale or entering new search data terms since all transparent arrows (markers) can be shown on the screen. An option can exist where the user moves to the marked location immediately by issuing a verbal or physical command.

An image display system is provided. The image display system includes a host, and a touch controller configured to generate touch event information corresponding to a touch signal and supply the touch event information to an accelerator, wherein the touch signal is output from a touch panel. The accelerator is configured to generate, based on the touch event information supplied from the touch controller, output image data corresponding to a touch event. The image display system further includes a display controller configured to supply the output image data generated by the accelerator to a display panel.

The system comprises a first display mounted in a fixed position, a computer system coupled to the first display and a handheld computing device, wherein the first display is larger than the second display, the first display has a wider field of view than the second display, the first display establishes an optical link with the second display, the first display and the second display renders a virtual reality model of a scene with moving objects and asynchronous visual events. The handheld computing device is configured to scan machine-readable code embedded in asynchronous visual events, the result of scanning indicates location of the asynchronous visual events and transmits the location of the synchronous visual events to one or more remote computing devices using one or more wireless link, and in response to transmission of the location, modify the virtual reality model of the scene rendered on the first display.

An electronic device may include a first display pipeline that may output image data via an output path. The electronic device may include first frame merge circuitry coupled to the output path. The electronic device may also include a first multiplexer coupled to the first frame merge circuitry and to the output path. The first multiplexer may transmit the image data from the output path to an electronic display, and, in response to a first control signal associated with the first frame merge circuitry generating a merged output, the first multiplexer transmits the merged output to the electronic display.
