An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display and method of driving the same are disclosed. In one aspect, the OLED display includes a display panel including a plurality of pixels and a data driver configured to apply a data signal to the display panel in one of two-dimensional (2D) and stereoscopic display modes. The display also includes a controller configured to convert an image signal to 2D image data for the pixels at each of N×k sub-fields in the 2D display mode and convert the image signal to stereoscopic image data for the pixels at each of N sub-fields in the stereoscopic display mode, where N and k are integers greater than 1. The display further includes a frame memory configured to store the 2D image data in the 2D display mode and the stereoscopic image data in the stereoscopic display mode.

A display method includes steps of: receiving, by the controller, a first frame and a second frame from an input data; up-converting, by the controller, a frame rate of the input data to produce a third frame based on the first frame and the second frame; identifying, by the controller, a static image content of the third frame according to a comparison of the first frame and the second frame; controlling, by the controller, the driver circuit not to update data of pixels within a static display area of the display panel corresponding to the static image content during the period of time that the third frame is displayed by the display panel.

A display device which supports a panel self refresh (“PSR”) mode includes a source unit and a synchronizing unit, and a signal is transmitted between the source unit and the synchronizing unit through an interface. The source unit determines on/off of the PSR mode in response to a PSR setting value, and additionally determines whether to activate the PSR mode in response to luminance information.

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to provide a method and system for automatically applying artificial limits to display resolutions in a computing system to improve performance. Embodiments are described herein that automatically limits the display resolution of an application executing in a discrete graphics processing unit operating from configurations with limited means of data transfer to the system memory. By automatically limiting the resolution in certain detected circumstances, the rate of generated graphics data may be dramatically increased. Another embodiment is also provided which allows for the automatic detection of an application's initialization and pro-actively limiting the user-selectable resolutions in which the output of the application may be displayed in to a maximum resolution calculated for optimal performance. The application's termination is also detected, whereupon a comprehensive list of supported resolutions becomes available.

A display panel, a display device and a method for driving the display panel. The display panel includes: a rotation axis; at least one display area located at one side of the rotation axis; wherein the display area includes a plurality of display sub-areas; and a plurality of driving-control modules corresponding to the plurality of display sub-areas. The plurality of display sub-areas are sequentially arranged along a first direction; the first direction is directed from the rotation axis to the display area; when the display panel rotates around the rotation axis, areas passed by the plurality of display sub-areas form a plurality of imaging sub-areas. The plurality of driving-control modules are configured to control the plurality of display sub-areas to have different display parameters, respectively, thereby enabling imaging brightness of the plurality of imaging sub-areas to be within a preset brightness range.

In a data processing system that includes a graphics processor and a video processor, graphics textures for use by the graphics processor are stored as encoded frames of video data. The video processor then decodes the video frames to reproduce the graphics texture(s) that the video frames encode, and stores the decoded graphics texture or textures in memory for use by the graphics processor.

The graphics processor then reads the decoded graphics textures for use when generating its render outputs, such as output frames for display.

An address to perform a memory operation on a memory location in a rectangular frame buffer is received. A determination is made whether the received address identifies a memory location in a non-rectangular frame buffer corresponding to a memory location in the rectangular frame buffer. Based on the determination that the received address identifies the memory location in the non-rectangular buffer, the memory operation on the memory location in the non-rectangular buffer is performed based on the translated address. Based on the determination that the received address does not identify the memory location in the non-rectangular buffer, the memory operation in the non-rectangular frame buffer is not performed.
