HIGH EFFICIENCY DISPLAY UTILIZING SIMULTANEOUS COLOR INTELLIGENT BACKLIGHTING AND LUMINESCENCE CONTROLLING SHUTTERS

摘要

A display comprises a front-end component having a matrix of neutral light valves that defines the resolution of the display. A backlight unit provides backlighting for the front-end component and has a plurality of individual elements grouped into repeat units, wherein the individual elements in the repeat units differ in color and the repeat units have a resolution less than the display resolution. All individual elements in individual repeat units are capable of simultaneously emitting light incident on more than one neutral light valve.
