Flat-panel display with hybrid imaging technology

摘要

An embodiment of the present invention is a technique to provide a hybrid imaging display. An array of pixel units is formed. Each pixel unit has emissive and reflective sub-pixels. A sensor senses ambient light condition to generate a sense signal. A drive circuit generates driving signals to drive the array of pixel units according to the sense signal such that the emissive and reflective sub-pixels are switched in a mutually exclusive manner.
