Fig. 3 is the process flow diagram according to the method for a kind of converting three-color grayscale value into four-color grayscale value of one embodiment of the invention.Fig. 4 is the synoptic diagram according to a kind of three look image datas of one embodiment of the invention.Fig. 5 is the synoptic diagram according to a kind of four look image datas of one embodiment of the invention.Please merge with reference to Fig. 2~Fig. 5, in the present embodiment, three look image datas and four look image datas are that example describes with picture element P1~P9 only, but the present invention is not limited to this.In other embodiments, three look image datas and four look image datas can be the images of other resolution.How following explanation earlier is converted to four look GTGs with the three look GTGs of picture element P1.
At first can be by step S301, input block 20 receives red GTG value R, green GTG value G and the blue GTG value B of picture element P1.Can know that by Fig. 4 the red GTG value R that learns picture element P1 is 10, green GTG value G is 15, and blue GTG value is 8.
Then can calculate red GTG value R, green GTG value G and the blue GTG value B GTG difference between any two of picture element P1 by step S302.Say that further subtrator 31 can calculate the GTG difference between red GTG value R and the green GTG value G, thereby thereby obtaining GTG difference DV1 is 5.Subtrator 32 can calculate the GTG difference between green GTG value G and the blue GTG value B, is 7 thereby obtain GTG difference DV2.Subtrator 33 can calculate the GTG difference between blue GTG value B and the red GTG value R, is 2 thereby obtain GTG difference DV3.
Then can whether differentiate GTG difference DV1~DV3 all less than threshold values by step S303.If GTG difference DV1~DV3 is all less than threshold values, 50 modes according to step S304 of converting unit produce four look GTG conversion values.If the one of GTG difference DV1~DV3 is greater than threshold values, 50 modes according to step S305 of converting unit produce four look GTG conversion values.Whether usefulness that it should be noted that step S303 is intended to differentiate the color of corresponding picture element similar in appearance to white.If GTG difference DV1~DV3 is all very little, the color similarity of representing corresponding picture element is in white, even if therefore also can not cause too big aberration with the white colour mixture effect that replaces redness, green and blueness.There is one very big as if GTG difference DV1~DV3, represents the color and the white dissmilarity of corresponding picture element, therefore may cause very big aberration, and may influence color saturation with the white colour mixture effect that replaces redness, green and blueness.
Step S303 in the present embodiment, judgement unit 40 can receive GTG difference DV1~DV3 that subtrator 31~33 is exported respectively, and respectively GTG difference and threshold values are compared, thereby whether differentiate GTG difference DV1~DV3 all less than threshold values, and RS is as a result differentiated in output according to this.At this, threshold values is that example describes with 10, but the present invention has the knack of art technology person and can decide threshold values according to its demand not as limit.Because threshold values is 10, GTG difference DV1~DV3 is respectively 5,7,2, therefore differentiates as a result that RS can show GTG difference DV1~DV3 all less than threshold values, but subsequent steps S304.
In step S304, can produce red GTG conversion value R ', green GTG conversion value G ', blue GTG conversion value B ' and white GTG conversion value W ' according to the red GTG value R of picture element P1, green GTG value G and blue GTG value B.Provide a kind of embodiment of step S304 to supply those of ordinary skill in the art's reference at this.
At first, can more red GTG value R, green GTG value G and the size of blue GTG value B, thus filter out reckling among red GTG value R, green GTG value G and the blue GTG value B three.Apparently, the blue GTG value of picture element P1 is 8, is reckling among the above-mentioned three.Then, can produce white GTG conversion value W ', make its value be same as reckling among the above-mentioned three, also be that the white GTG conversion value W ' of picture element P1 is 8.Then, can produce red GTG conversion value R ', make its value be same as red GTG value R and deduct white GTG conversion value W ', also be that the red GTG conversion value R ' of picture element P1 is 2.Then, can produce green GTG conversion value G ', make its value be same as green GTG value G and deduct white GTG conversion value W ', also be that the green GTG conversion value G ' of picture element P1 is 7.Then, can produce blue GTG conversion value B ', make its value be same as blue GTG value B and deduct white GTG conversion value W ', also be that the blue GTG conversion value B ' of picture element P1 is 0.
On the other hand, in step S303, if the one of GTG difference DV1~DV3 is greater than threshold values, 50 modes according to step S305 of converting unit produce four look GTG conversion values.Is that example describes at this with picture element P2.In the present embodiment, GTG difference DV1~DV3 of picture element P2 is respectively 10,55 and 45, therefore can subsequent steps S305 behind step S303.In step S305, converting unit 50 can produce red GTG conversion value R ', green GTG conversion value G ', blue GTG conversion value B ' and white GTG conversion value W ', and it equals red GTG value R, green GTG value G, blue GTG value B and zero respectively.More particularly, the red GTG conversion value R ' of picture element P2, green GTG conversion value G ', blue GTG conversion value B ' are respectively 120,130,75 and 0 with white GTG conversion value W '.
In like manner but repeating step S301~S305 converts the three-color GTG value of other picture elements to four look color gray values.In the present embodiment, the four look color gray values of picture element P1, P4, P5, P7 and P8 are to change according to the mode of step S304, can effectively suppress the look segregation phenomenon.It will be further appreciated that four look color sequential displays are to utilize red backlight, green colored backlights source, blue backlight and white backlight source to show four look color gray values.Because the luminescence efficiency in white backlight source is better than the mixed light effect of red backlight, green colored backlights source and blue backlight.Therefore utilize white GTG conversion value W ' to replace the mixed light effect of the red GTG value of part R, green GTG value G, blue GTG value B, can effectively reduce the power consumption of four look color sequential displays.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the four look color gray values of picture element P2, P3, P6 and P9 are to change according to the mode of step S305, can keep the saturation degree of color.
What deserves to be mentioned is, in the present embodiment, the height of threshold values directly influence suppress the look segregation phenomenon, reduce display power consumption, keep color saturation ... etc. effect.More particularly, threshold values is littler, and the effect of keeping color saturation better; Otherwise threshold values is bigger, and suppressing the look segregation phenomenon can be better with the effect of the power consumption that reduces display.The sequential chart that the controlling signal of each color liquid crystal cells and each color controlling signal backlight below is provided is for those of ordinary skill in the art's reference.
