Liquid crystal display device, electronic apparatus, display control method, display control program, and non-transitory recording medium
An electronic apparatus using a liquid crystal display device, a display control method used in the liquid crystal display device, and a non-transitory recording medium for storing a display control program, sets a region having a larger area of an information display region and a background region as a transmission region and a region having a smaller area as a shielding region. A tint change of the shielding region caused by a TN type liquid crystal and a light source for backlight is reduced, and thus, it is possible to make the tint change depending on the viewing direction unremarkable.

Backlight reconstruction and compensation-based throttling
Throttling circuitry may throttle the backlight reconstruction via backlight reconstruction and compensation circuitry in a display pipeline when power may be limited. This throttling of the display pipeline may limit a number of cycles that may be used for performing backlight reconstruction and compensation.
BACKLIGHT CONTROL AND IMAGE COMPENSATION METHOD APPLIED TO DISPLAY AND ASSOCIATED CONTROL METHOD
A control method of a display includes a statistics circuit, a backlight determining circuit and a backlight control circuit. The display includes a backlight module having a maximum power. The statistics module receives frame, and generates luminance statistical information of a plurality of blocks included in the frame. The backlight determining circuit determines a backlight intensity corresponding to each of the blocks according to the luminance statistical information of the blocks and the maximum power. At least one of the backlight intensities corresponding to the blocks is greater than a normal luminance, which is a backlight intensity corresponding to one of the blocks when the maximum power is evenly distributed on light emitting elements of the display. The backlight control circuit controls the luminance of the backlight module according to the backlight intensities.
High dynamic range displays using filterless LCD(s) for increasing contrast and resolution
A display provides increased contrast and resolution via first LCD panel energized to generate an image and a second LCD panel configured to increase contrast of the image. The second panel is an LCD panel without color filters and is configured to increase contrast by decreasing black levels of dark portions of images using polarization rotation and filtration. The second LCD panel may have higher resolution than the first LCD panel. A half wave plate and/or film is placed in between the first and the second panel. The panels may be directly illuminated or edge lit, and may be globally or locally dimmed lights that may also include individual control of color intensities for each image or frame displayed.

An information processing device includes: a foldable display; a memory which temporarily stores display data to be displayed on the display; and a processor which performs control when displaying the display data stored in the memory on the display. The processor performs folding angle detection processing to detect a folding angle of the display, and luminance correction processing to correct luminance of at least any one of plural areas preset inside a screen area of the display based on the folding angle detected by the folding angle detection processing and a user's viewpoint position.
Method for hybrid pulse amplitude and width modulation in LED drivers for display panels
Driving a LED array includes determining total charge to be transferred to the LEDs during an image frame, and determining a number of drive pulses of equal width and amplitude that would drive the LEDs with nearly the total charge during display of the image frame. One of the drive pulses is modified so the drive pulses drive the LEDs with the total charge during display. If the width is greater than a minimum width and less than a maximum width, the LEDs are driven with the drive pulses. If the width is less than the minimum width and if an amplitude is greater than a minimum amplitude, the amplitude of the drive pulses is decremented. If the width is less than the minimum width and if the amplitude is equal to the minimum amplitude and if the number of drive pulses is greater than one, the number is decremented.
