RAPID IMAGE RENDERING ON DUAL-MODULATOR DISPLAYS

摘要

Apparatus and methods are provided that employ one or more of a
variety of techniques for reducing the time required to display high
resolution images on a high dynamic range display having a light source
layer and a display layer. In one technique, the image resolution is
reduced, an effective luminance pattern is determined for the reduced
resolution image, and the resolution of the effective luminance pattern is
then increased to the resolution of the display layer. In another
technique, the light source layer''s point spread function is decomposed
into a plurality of components, and an effective luminance pattern is
determined for each component. The effective luminance patterns are
then combined to produce a total effective luminance pattern.
Additional image display time reduction techniques are provided.
