Method, device and system of displaying a more-than-three primary color image

摘要

Embodiments of the invention include a method, device and/or system for displaying a more than three primary color (RGB) image. The device (100,200) may include, for example, a driver control module (218) to controllably activate one or more drivers (206,210) of an array of sub-pixel elements of at least four primary colors based on image data representing pixels of the color image in terms of at least three primary colors (RGB). Other embodiments are described and claimed.

主权项

1. A color display device for displaying a more-than-three color image, the device comprising a driver control module to controllably activate one or more drivers of an array of sub-pixel elements of at least four different colors based on image data representing pixels of said color image in terms of at least three data components wherein said driver control module comprises:
a conversion module for converting said image data into converted sub-pixel data representing said color image in terms of four or more primary colors said conversion module comprises:
a first converter for converting said image data into intermediate sub-pixel data of four or more primary colors, anda second converter for converting said intermediate sub-pixel data into said converted sub-pixel data using at least one conversion matrix, wherein the converted sub-pixel data depends on the intermediate sub-pixel data and a position of the pixel displaying the data, wherein data for each of said four or more primary colors of said converted sub-pixel data is in gray-level format, and a controller to control said conversion module to convert said image data into said converted sub-pixel data based on said one or more display-attributes and said one or more image-attributes, wherein said controller is able to determine one or more values of said at least one conversion matrix based on at least one display attribute related to said display device and at least one image attribute related to said color image, and to provide said values of said at least one conversion matrix to said second converter, wherein said one or more display-attributes comprise at least one attribute selected from the group consisting of a configuration of one or more defective sub-pixel elements within said array, a brightness non-homogeneity of said display device, and a color non-homogeneity of said display device.
