METHOD AND UNIT FOR PROCESSING IMAGES

摘要

A display device (806) is driven by a video processing unit (804) in a number of sub-fields, each for outputting a respective illumination level by the display device. In each sub-field, a pixel of the displayed image may emit an amount of light corresponding to the particular sub-field, depending on whether it is switched on or not. Based on motion estimation, the desired intensity level of a particular pixel at the time point corresponding with the current sub-field is calculated. Subsequently, it is determined how much light has been generated by the pixels along the motion vector of the particular pixel and accumulated in the eye of a human observer. Then a target intensity level is calculated on the basis of the desired level and the already accumulated level. Based on this target level it is decided whether the particular pixel is to be ignited in the current sub-field.
