摘要

A method updates an image displayed on an electronic display. The image can include a first region having multiple lines and a second region also having multiple lines. The method includes driving the pixels of the first and second regions according to one or more frames. In a first frame, driving the pixels of the first and second regions is done by scanning the lines of the regions from a first end of the first region to a second end of the second region, the second end opposite the first end along a scanning direction. In a second frame, driving the pixels of the first and second regions is done by scanning the lines of the regions from the first end to the second end, and the scanning begins before the scanning according to the first frame reaches the second end.

1. Method of updating at least one image displayed on an electronic display comprising a single monolithic layer of electrophoretic display medium comprising at least a first region and a second region, said first region having a first plurality of lines of pixels and said second region having a second plurality of lines of pixels, the method comprising:
providing a driver comprising a first backplane and a second backplane, wherein said first backplane corresponds to and is under said first region of said electrophoretic display medium and said second backplane corresponds to and is under said second region of said electrophoretic display medium; driving, using said first backplane of said driver, said pixels of said first region of said single monolithic layer of electrophoretic display medium according to each of a plurality of frames; driving, using said second backplane of said driver, said pixels of said second region of said single monolithic layer of electrophoretic display medium according to each of a plurality of frames, the method further comprising: driving said pixels of said first and second regions according to a first said frame by scanning said lines of said regions from a first end of said first region to a second end of said second region, said second end opposite said first end along a direction of a said scanning; and driving said pixels of said first and second regions according to a second said frame by scanning said lines of said regions from said first end to said second end; and wherein said scanning according to the second frame begins before said scanning according to the first frame reaches said second end.
