Below step by step above-mentioned flow process is described in detail:
1. dither matrix is set: background technology is described, in the past when dither matrix is set, do not consider the driving voltage polarity of display or do not consider the situation of the driving voltage brightness exhibit comparable of adjacent gray scale opposed polarity, and in the present embodiment, these factors are considered into.
LCD exists several driving methods, as delegation's one row inversion driving, two row, one row inversion driving, two row, two row inversion driving etc.And drive the polarity distribution that type of relationship driving voltage, and when dither matrix is set, need at first consider the driving type of display unit for this reason, the inversion driving pattern that is listed as with a kind of two row one shown in Figure 2 is an example, and the principle that is provided with of dither matrix is described.
At first ask for high-order pixel grey scale mould value, formula is as follows:
mod_V=mod(Value,4);
Wherein, mod_V is high-order pixel grey scale mould value, and Value is high-order grey scale pixel value.
Then, dither matrix is set respectively at the high-order pixel grey scale mould of difference value mod_V.On time domain, dither matrix constitutes shake by a plurality of submatrixs, and on the spatial domain, each submatrix is made up of a plurality of elements, and these a plurality of elements comprise first element with first value and second element with second value, use this dither matrix and can overcome the fixed mode that is caused by the driving voltage brightness exhibit comparable of adjacent gray scale opposed polarity.Present embodiment is gone up in the time and is constituted a circulation by 4 submatrixs, and the submatrix of employing 4*4 carries out the shake on the space.But the present invention is not limited to this, experimental results show that 8 frames are a circulation, adopts the submatrix effect of 8*8 also relatively good.
Referring to Fig. 4, it is the schematic diagram of 2 o'clock set dither matrixs for high-order pixel grey scale mould value mod_V, wherein first element is " 0 ", second element is " 1 ", certainly the present invention is not as limit, also first element is " 1 " in addition, and second element is " 0 ", and its setting up procedure is as follows:
Consider the shake result in advance, the position of distribution first element and second element appearance rationally, first element that makes corresponding positive polarity driving voltage and corresponding negative polarity driving voltage second element couple together the line patterns that forms in a certain frame different with its line patterns that forms in consecutive frame, and second element that perhaps makes corresponding positive polarity driving voltage and corresponding negative polarity driving voltage first element couple together the line patterns of formation in a certain frame different with its line patterns that forms in consecutive frame.
" 1 " and " 0 " is represented respectively and is connected an adjacent gray scale in 64 grades of gray scales for instance, if want to shake the effect of high-order pixel grey scale 202, promptly will show 50.5 in low level display apparatus, needs the shake of 50 and 51 gray scales to produce visual 0.5." 1 " represents 51 gray scales at this moment, and " 0 " represents 50 gray scales.For 0.5 middle gray occurring, " 0 ", " 1 " appear in the submatrix with identical ratio.The gray scale of considering "+0 " and " 1 " may be very approaching, and produce line patterns as shown in Figure 5, and the brightness of these lines is approaching, if four frames all are horizontal stripes, the horizontal stripe pattern finally can occur; If four frames all are slanted bars, finally the slanted bar pattern can appear ... therefore make the lines of every frame all different in 4 frame one-periods, just can avoid this fixed mode generation.As figure, first frame is the odd-numbered line horizontal stripe, and second frame is a slanted bar, the 3rd frame is the even number line horizontal stripe, and the 4th frame is another kind of slanted bar mode, like this through shake, can not produce fixing pattern, because the shake of every bit all is different, flicker visually can not occur again yet.The form of this dither matrix is very effective to the very approaching liquid crystal display screen of the gray scale of this "+0 " and " 1 ", and can guarantee that the mean flow rate of picture is constant substantially.
As Fig. 6,7, it is respectively high-order pixel grey scale mould value mod_V in the foregoing description is 1 and the schematic diagram of 3 o'clock set dither matrixs.It is corresponding first order middle gray and third level middle gray respectively, and the appearance ratio of " 0 ", " 1 " was respectively 3: 1 and 1: 3 at this moment.
Certain above-mentioned dither matrix only is that content of the present invention better is described, is not in order to qualification the present invention, and those skilled in the art can obtain the dither matrix that other have same effect under this prompting.Promptly this dither matrix comprises a plurality of submatrixs, it constitutes temporal shake, wherein each submatrix comprises a plurality of elements and constitutes shake on the space, wherein these a plurality of elements comprise first element with first value and second element with second value, wherein, the line patterns that forms of coupling together in first element of corresponding positive polarity driving voltage and a certain frame of corresponding negative polarity driving voltage second element is different with its line patterns that forms in consecutive frame, and second element of perhaps corresponding positive polarity driving voltage and corresponding negative polarity driving voltage first element couple together the line patterns of formation in a certain frame different with its line patterns that forms in consecutive frame.
2. choose corresponding dither matrix: be provided with correspondingly, promptly the current high-order grey scale pixel value that reads in is carried out modulo operation, the high-order grey scale pixel value mod_V dither matrix identical with the current mould value of calculating of choosing correspondence when being provided with gets final product.Certainly also to consider R, G, B passage etc. in actual applications, known to those skilled in the art, repeat no more.
3. according to the dither matrix of choosing, calculate the low level grey scale pixel value of current pixel point: in this example, the low level grey scale pixel value equals corresponding high-order grey scale pixel value divided by 4 gained merchants' a integer part and the gray scale amplitude sum of rising in value, referring to following formula:
DestPix=int(SrcPix(x,y)/4)+V(i,j)
Wherein, (x is the pixel value that obtains in R, G, each passage of B in the source images of input y) to SrcPix, and promptly high-order grey scale pixel value is between [0,255]; (x y) is the position coordinate value of current pixel point; Int means the round numbers part, does not round up; (x y) is meant in output image corresponding pixel value to SrcPix, i.e. low level grey scale pixel value is between [0,63]; And V (i is 0 or 1 j), is the gray scale increment amplitude that obtains according to dither matrix.
In the value 0 of gray scale increment amplitude or the corresponding dither matrix of 1 difference " 0 " or " 1 ", so have only according to current pixel point and find its corresponding element in dither matrix, just can determine the value of this gray scale increment amplitude, this moment need be according to the frame number and the position coordinate value of current pixel point, determine its corresponding element in dither matrix, be specially: at first in the dither matrix of choosing, choose the submatrix identical with the frame number of current pixel point; Determine the line number i of current pixel point in selected submatrix then, and line number i equals mould 4 values of the row-coordinate of current pixel point, i.e. i=mod (x, 4); Determine the columns j of current pixel point in selected submatrix again; So, just, can in selected submatrix, find the corresponding element of current pixel point according to line number i and columns j.
In order to obtain better visual effect, after having chosen dither matrix, when determining the corresponding element of current pixel point, adopt certain methods, make the spatial distribution of pixel further obtain to upset, and guarantee the mean flow rate of picture.The present invention in an embodiment just illustration a kind of method of upsetting, it is used for determining the process of columns j, and is specific as follows:

mod_Value=mod(Value,2);
(2) number of strange, the dual pixel of statistics before the current pixel point, formula is as follows:
num 1=∑(if?mod_Value==1)
num 2=∑(if?mod_Value==0)
Wherein, num 1, num 2Be respectively number strange, dual pixel
(3) strange, dual pixel number are carried out delivery 4 computings respectively, and obtain strange pixel mould value and idol prime modulus value; When above-mentioned modulo operation result was 0, setting above-mentioned columns was 4; When above-mentioned modulo operation result is not 0 and current pixel point when being strange pixel, determine that above-mentioned columns is above-mentioned strange pixel mould value; When above-mentioned modulo operation result is not 0 and current pixel point when being dual pixel, determine that above-mentioned columns is above-mentioned idol prime modulus value.Formula is as follows:

if?pick_num_odd==0
pick_num_odd=4
end
pick_num_even=mod(num 2,4)
if?pick_num_even==0
pick_num_even=4
end
if?mod_value==2
V(i,j)=F(i,pick_num_even)
else
V(i,j)=F(i,pick_num_odd)
end
Wherein, (i j) is selected submatrix to F, and current pixel can calculate the row pick_num_odd that needs are got according to the plain number of odd image when being strange pixel in matrix; When if current pixel is strange pixel, can calculate the row pick_num_even that needs are got according to the plain number of icon in matrix, the method recomputates in setting at the beginning of each row, does not add up.
