Systems and Methods for Controlling Dual Modulation Displays

In one embodiment, a dual modulator display systems and methods for rendering target image data upon the dual modulator display system are disclosed where the display system receives target image data, possible HDR image data and first calculates display control signals and then calculates backlight control signals from the display control signals. This order of calculating display signals and then backlight control signals later as a function of the display systems may tend to reduce clipping artifacts. In other embodiments, it is possible to split the input target HDR image data into a base layer and a detail layer, wherein the base layer is the low spatial resolution image data that may be utilized as for backlight illumination data. The detail layer is higher spatial resolution image data that may be utilized for display control data.

A plug structure for taking out liquid from a container includes a plug body press-fitted into a container inlet port. The plug body is resiliently deformable with a lower portion being formed into a ring shape and being provided with slits in an axial direction. The plug structure includes a locking claw on an outer peripheral surface of the plug body, which projects toward an inner wall surface of the container inlet port. The locking claw has a minimum diameter substantially the same as or smaller than the inner diameter of the container inlet port. The locking claw has a maximum diameter that is larger than the inner diameter of the container inlet port. The plug structure includes a valve operating portion that presses a valve on a socket connected to the plug body. The valve operating portion is provided on an upper end inlet port of the siphon tube.
