A cholesteric liquid crystal (LC) composite display device includes a light absorbing substrate, a first and second transparent substrates, a light supplement module arranged between the light absorbing substrate and the first transparent substrate, a control module, a first and second electrode layers respectively formed on the first and second transparent substrates, a first cholesteric LC layer sandwiched between the first and second electrode layers, and a first light absorbing layer disposed on the second transparent substrate. The projection of the first light absorbing layer on the horizontal plane and the projection of the light supplement module on the horizontal plane are arranged in a misaligned manner. The control module is provided for controlling the light supplement module according to the brightness signal. Thereby, when the external brightness is low, the light supplement module enhances the displaying brightness of the cholesteric LC composite display device to meet the usage requirements.

An example electronic device may include a processor resource and aa memory resource with a set of instructions stored thereon that, when executed, cause the processor resource to retrieve a first brightness characteristic and a second brightness characteristic associated with the light source, associate the first brightness characteristic with a first nits level and the second brightness characteristic with a second nits level using a brightness conversion data block, determine a brightness control signal directly compatible with the light source, and cause the light source to operate via the brightness control signal.

Systems and methods for user personalization and recommendation schemes that are matched to a user profile and provide a highly personalized, interactive experience for the user on an entertainment platform are disclosed. In one aspect of the invention, the highly personalized and interactive experience is facilitated through information from the user profile comprised of user-inputted information, historical data, and outputs from machine learning engines. In another aspect of the invention, the system is capable of outputting the highly-personalized and interactive recommendations onto a viewing screen while media content is continuously streaming on the same viewing screen.

Systems and methods for a six-primary color system for display. A six-primary color system increases the number of primary colors available in a color system and color system equipment. Increasing the number of primary colors reduces metameric errors from viewer to viewer. The six-primary color system includes Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Yellow, and Magenta primaries. The systems of the present invention maintain compatibility with existing color systems and equipment and provide systems for backwards compatibility with older color systems.

Device comprising: a rear panel comprising a network of backlighting elements, a front panel comprising a network of optical valves which are each capable of modulating the brightness of a single primary colour. By the modulation of chrominance which is added to the modulation of luminance for the backlighting elements of the rear panel, the device according to the invention makes it possible to display the images with even more contrast and better quality. A specific control mode makes it possible to avoid the colour “interferences”.

A light emission control method is adapted to a direct-lit LED backlight display. The display includes a backlight module, a driving circuit, a detection circuit, and a control circuit. The backlight module includes a first light emission group and a second light emission group. The first light emission group includes a plurality of first LEDs, and the second light emission group includes a plurality of second LEDs. The first LEDs and the second LEDs are in an interleaved arrangement. The driving circuit is activated to selectively drive the first light emission group and the second light emission group to emit light. On detection of an abnormal light-emission status of any of the plurality of LEDs, the detection circuit sends an abnormal signal. The control circuit obtains a shut-down group according to the abnormal signal and actives the driving circuit not to drive the shut-down group to emit light.

A display device includes: first and second substrates with a liquid crystal therebetween; pixel electrodes and a common electrode provided to the first or second substrate; a light source including first to third light sources; and an image processor generating a signal to be provided to each pixel based on an input image signal. A frame period includes a first subframe period in which the first light source is on, a second subframe period in which the second light source is on, a third subframe period in which the third light source is on, and a fourth subframe period in which one or more of the first to third light sources are on. The image processor divides a gradation value into two values smaller than the gradation value, allocates one of the two values to the fourth subframe period, and allocates the other value to the other first subframe period.

Systems and methods for a multi-primary color system for display. A multi-primary color system increases the number of primary colors available in a color system and color system equipment. Increasing the number of primary colors reduces metameric errors from viewer to viewer. One embodiment of the multi-primary color system includes Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Yellow, and Magenta primaries. The systems of the present invention maintain compatibility with existing color systems and equipment and provide systems for backwards compatibility with older color systems.

To increase the spatial resolution of a liquid crystal display (LCD) device, instead of emitting colors of an image (e.g., the three primary colors) in a single frame, the colors of an image are emitted sequentially. For example, if the colors of the image are red, blue, and green, the colors are emitted sequentially at a rate three times the desired frame rate of the display. The colors are emitted from a backlight unit (BLU) that produces pulses of colored light successively. By emitting colors sequentially, the number of subpixels in a pixel can be decreased or eliminated. Thus, among other advantages, the size of each pixel can decrease and the spatial resolution of the display device (e.g., pixels per inch) can increase.

The present invention provides a display device having a display panel. The display panel has a display surface and a plurality of pixels. At least some of the pixels include: an illumination unit and a display unit. The illumination unit has at least one illumination sub-pixel and at least one light orientation element respectively and correspondingly disposed on the at least one illumination sub-pixel, and illumination light from the illumination sub-pixel is directly or indirectly emitted from the display surface through the light orientation element. The display unit has at least one display sub-pixel, and display light from the display sub-pixel is directly or indirectly emitted from the display surface.
