Embodiment
For convenience of description, with the LCD display example to display screen in the present embodiment, be that example describes with LED to backlight, those skilled in the art are not difficult to understand, and this can't cause restriction to protection domain of the present invention for example.The LCD driver module is in the process that LCD lights, usually the way that adopts is to carry continuous current to LED, promptly allow maintenance backlight constant, and in fact, the LCD picture displayed may change, with the broadcast short films is example, the picture that LCD plays is in continuous variation, wherein a lot of pictures may have darker color depth (being that the color depth value is less), in this case, most of meeting backlight is absorbed by picture, makes backlight roles such as picture color, brightness to be descended to a great extent.Therefore, before the output picture data, analyze the color depth value of picture earlier,, can avoid meaningless waste of energy, reach the prolongation equipment purpose of service time according to the current picture displayed color depth value dynamic adjustments LED electric current of wanting.
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing the embodiment of the invention is specified.
See also Fig. 1, the power-economizing method process flow diagram that Fig. 1 provides for one embodiment of the invention.
In step 102, determine picture to be shown on LCD display.
With the broadcast short films is example, because picture is constantly changing, needs constantly to determine to be about in the short-movie picture displayed; Perhaps when browsing pictures, also need to determine picture to be shown.
Particularly, determine that picture to be shown on LCD display can select to be finished by driver module.
In step 104, treat the color depth value of display frame and analyze.
The purpose that picture color depth value is analyzed is to determine power backlight influence to picture, thereby helps need to determine whether adjustment backlight, to reduce the consumption of backlight to electric power.
For a pixel, be that the color depth value of red, green, blue three looks is (255,255 at three primary colors, 255) time, promptly the rgb value of this pixel is (255,255,255) time, this pixel is a pure white, is (0 in the color depth value of red, green, blue three looks, 0,0) time, this pixel is an ater, and usually, it is the darkest that black is considered to color depth, and it is the most shallow that white is considered to color depth, that is to say that the depth of color depth and the size of color depth value become the opposite direction relationship change.Analyze picture color depth value and both can adopt the image software of some third parties' exploitations to finish, the also method that can adopt present embodiment to provide, specifically as shown in Figure 2, the method for the analysis color depth value that present embodiment provides comprises:
Step 202 is added up each pixel of described picture to be shown, obtains the color depth value of each pixel;
Step 204 calculates average color depth value according to the color depth value of each pixel and the number of pixel, as the color depth value of described picture to be shown.
When the color depth value of each pixel of statistics, need calculate the three primary colors color depth value of this pixel, suppose that R is the Red color depth value of pixel, G is the Green color depth value of pixel, B is the Blue color depth value of pixel, consider that three primary colors produce the receptivity difference of spectrum to backlight, further the color depth value of RGB is done balance, obtain an initial color depth value, because screen edge is less to visual impact, and the central area is bigger to vision imaging, thereby further comes initial color depth value is revised computing according to this pixel present position, obtains the color depth value of each pixel.
After obtaining the color depth value of each pixel, calculate average color depth value according to the color depth value of each pixel and the number of pixel, for example can take to ask the mode of arithmetic mean, promptly after the color depth value addition of all pixels again divided by the number of pixel, obtain a mean value, with the color depth value of this mean value as picture to be shown.
Preferably, when considering practical application, some special region may appear in the picture, for example may picture brightness higher in the local area, to this, present embodiment can also be selected further execution in step 206, in conjunction with the area of special area, the color depth value of special area pixel the average color depth value that calculates in the step 204 is revised, with the color depth value of revised color depth value as described picture to be shown.
Please continue to consult Fig. 1, in step 106, regulate the working current of backlight according to the color depth value of picture to be shown.
When picture had darker color depth (the color depth value is lower), greatly meeting backlight was absorbed by picture, backlightly also can descend to roles such as picture color, brightness.Particularly, when adjusting the working current of backlight, if the color depth of picture to be shown reduces the working current in display backlight source than increasing (the color depth value reduces) last time; If the color depth of picture to be shown then increases the working current in display backlight source than reducing (increase of color depth value) last time.
In the present embodiment, when adjusting the working current in display backlight source, need carry out according to the color depth value of picture to be shown, calculate the color depth value of described picture to be shown and the funtcional relationship between the pure white picture color depth value earlier, adjust the working current in display backlight source again, make to meet described funtcional relationship between the back light source brightness of the described picture correspondence to be shown back light source brightness corresponding with the pure white picture.Ratio relation between color depth value that for example described function can be a picture to be shown and the pure white picture color depth value.
For expressing conveniently, the back light source brightness of the full frame pure white picture correspondence of supposition is 10 (back light source brightness is the highest, working current is maximal value) below, and the back light source brightness of the picture correspondence of full frame black is 0 (backlight is closed, working current be 0).Treat that with one picture is an example, after the method for the analysis color depth value that the employing present embodiment provides is analyzed, if the ratio between the color depth value of this picture to be shown and the pure white picture color depth value is about 55%, when exporting this picture to display screen and show, can be by adjusting the mode of backlight working current, 55% brightness when being pure white with the brightness regulation of backlight, in the case, can effectively save power consumption, and can not cause the obvious deepening of picture.
The method that the embodiment of the invention provides is applicable to that having backlight for example adopts the display screen of LED as backlight, it preferably can be LCD display, under to the less situation of picture display effect influence, can reduce the consumption of electric power effectively, thereby reach purpose of energy saving.
