DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING DISPLAY APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING DISPLAY APPARATUS, DISPLAY APPARATUS, AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT

摘要

A device for controlling a display apparatus includes: an image acquiring portion that acquires first image data containing a tone value of each pixel; a parameter acquiring portion that acquires a parameter for determining a tone used to display an image, from among the tones of the pixel that change in a discrete manner; and a tone reducing portion that determines, in a case of reducing the number of tones to a number of tones smaller than that of the first image data, each tone value after the reduction of the number of tones, according to the parameter acquired by the parameter acquiring portion, and generates second image data in which the number of tones in the first image data acquired by the image acquiring portion has been reduced based on the determined tone value.
