Powering microLEDs considering outlier pixels
A light-emitting apparatus can reduce a number of undriven or underdriven uLEDs in a uLED die. A method can include providing, by a power supply and during a first time, electrical power with a first voltage sufficient to operate a majority of micro light emitting diodes (uLEDs) of a uLED die to respective uLED drivers of the uLED die, driving the majority of uLEDs of the uLED die using the uLED drivers during the first time, providing, by the power supply and during a second time after the first time, electrical power with a second voltage, the second voltage higher than the first voltage and sufficient to operate uLEDs of the uLED die that are not operable by the first voltage, and driving the majority of the uLEDs and the uLEDs of the uLED die that are not operable by the first voltage during the second time.
DISPLAY PANEL REDUNDANCY SCHEMES
Display panel redundancy schemes and methods of operation are described. In an embodiment, and display panel includes an array of drivers (e.g. microdrivers), each of which including multiple portions to independently receive control and pixel bits. In an embodiment, each driver portion is to control a group of redundant emission elements.
Display Apparatus and Methods
A display includes a plurality of pixel chips, chixels, provided on a substrate. The chixels and the light emitters thereon may be shaped, sized and arranged to minimize chixel, pixel, and sub-pixel gaps and to provide a seamless look between adjacent display modules. The substrate may include light manipulators, such as filters, light converters and the like to manipulate the light emitted from light emitters of the chixels. The light manipulators may be arranged to minimize chixel gaps between adjacent chixels.
Modular Display Panels
An embodiment modular light-emitting diode (LED) display panel includes attachment points for use in attachment as part of a multi-panel modular LED display, a printed circuit board including a first side and an opposite second side, and a plastic casing attached to the opposite second side of the printed circuit board. A perimeter of the plastic casing is substantially rectangular and has a height and a width. The modular LED display panel further includes a display surface including a plurality of LEDs arranged as pixels and attached to the first side of the printed circuit board. The pixels are arranged in a rectangular array including at least fifty pixels. Each of the pixels of the rectangular array is spaced from each respective adjacent pixel of the rectangular array by a pitch. The pitch is a predetermined constant number. The pitch does not depend on the height and the width.
Self-calibrating display device
A system is described for automatically calibrating a display device based at least on information relating to a user of the display device. The system obtains visual acuity information or pupillary information of the user. The system then determines a value of a display parameter of the display device based at least on the visual acuity information or the pupillary information of the user. The determined value is then provided for application to the display device. Other information may also be used in determining the value of the display parameter, such as user input, demographic information of the user, display device specific information, user environment information, displayed content information, or application context information. An algorithm may be used that determines the display parameter based on such information. The algorithm may comprise a model obtained through machine learning.
Display device having functionality of blue light filtering
A device having functionality of eye protection is disclosed, which principally comprises a display main body and a light parameter regulating unit. The light parameter regulating unit is adopted for regulating a color temperature (CT) of a specific light that is radiated from the display main body down to be below 3000K. Moreover, the specific light is eventually regulated down to have a minimum CT of 2000K, and an illuminance of the specific light is steppedly dimmed to be close to 0 lx. Experimental data have proved that, after being applied with the light parameter regulating process, a value of MPE of the specific light is largely increased, and a ratio of MSS is significantly lowered. In addition, when a user is watching the display device, the illuminance of the specific light can also be automatically adjusted to approach an illuminance of an ambient light.
