Embodiment
General liquid crystal indicator is because of the difference of its structure and design concept, and respectively has its special polarity of voltage to distribute, and therefore specific reciprocation takes place between meeting and the video data, and visually generation is as the ill effect of flicker noise.The present invention distributes according to the polarity of voltage of liquid crystal indicator, being created in the image display effect that does not visually almost have flicker noise, and can increase the GTG of image.
Please refer to the 4th figure, the 4th figure is the synoptic diagram that is used for the method for displaying image 40 of a liquid crystal indicator according to the embodiment of the invention.Method for displaying image 40 can increase the GTG performance of each liquid crystal display of liquid crystal indicator, and it includes following steps:
Step 400: beginning.
Step 402: receive an input image data INIMG, input image data INIMG includes a plurality of input picture sub-pixels, corresponding to a plurality of display units that liquid crystal indicator comprised.
Step 404: according to input image data INIMG, producing period is continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K of K, each picture of continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K includes a plurality of picture sub-pixels, corresponding to these a plurality of display units, and the grey exponent number of input image data INIMG is greater than the grey exponent number of continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K.
Step 406: according to a least significant bit (LSB) value (the least significant bits of a GTG value of the pairing input picture sub-pixel of each display unit of these a plurality of display units, LSB), set among continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K corresponding to the number that needs value added picture sub-pixel in K the picture sub-pixel of each display unit.
Step 408:, make in each picture of continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K corresponding to the display unit of positive polarity and need the number of value added picture sub-pixel to be equal to and need the number of value added picture sub-pixel corresponding to the display unit of negative polarity according to the number that needs value added picture sub-pixel among continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K and the polarity of these a plurality of display units.
Step 410: finish.
According to the mode of operation of method for displaying image 40, after receiving input image data INIMG, the present invention produces K continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAMF_K according to input image data INIMG.Wherein, the picture sub-pixel that comprised of the input picture sub-pixel that comprised of input image data INIMG and continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K is all corresponding to the display unit of liquid crystal indicator.Then, the present invention sets among continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K corresponding to the number that needs value added picture sub-pixel in K the picture sub-pixel of this display unit according to a least significant bit (LSB) value of a GTG value of the pairing input picture sub-pixel of a display unit.At last, according to the number that needs value added picture sub-pixel among continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K and the polarity of all display units, the present invention makes in each picture of continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K corresponding to the display unit of positive polarity and needs the number of value added picture sub-pixel to be equal to corresponding to the display unit of negative polarity and need the number of value added picture sub-pixel.
In brief, the present invention is considered as coordinate points on the two-dimentional coordinate with all display units of liquid crystal indicator, and each coordinate points is then corresponding to the input picture sub-pixel of input picture INIMG and K the picture sub-pixel of continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K.Then, at each coordinate points (display unit), the present invention is according to the least significant bit (LSB) value corresponding to the GTG value of the input picture sub-pixel of this coordinate points, sets among continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K the number corresponding to the value added picture sub-pixel of need in K the picture sub-pixel of this coordinate points.After in regular turn each coordinate points being carried out above-mentioned setting, the present invention according to the polarity of all display units, adjusts the position that needs value added picture sub-pixel among continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K again.
In other words, the present invention is prior among " time domain " (Temporal Domain), show the least significant bit (LSB) value in the GTG value of sub-pixel in value added mode, again in " spatial domain " (Spatial Domain) according to the polarity of all display units, adjust in each picture the position that needs value added picture sub-pixel.Thus, the present invention not only can go up the adjustment of position by " spatial domain " simultaneously in the least significant bit (LSB) value in " time domain " demonstration GTG value, reduces the film flicker phenomenon.
As previously mentioned, the present invention is according to the least significant bit (LSB) value of the GTG value of input picture sub-pixel, and making needs the number of value added picture sub-pixel to equal the least significant bit (LSB) value in a plurality of picture sub-pixels.Thus, according to the average effect of vision to quick modified-image, when the number of value added picture sub-pixel more for a long time, then this sub-pixel just can show the GTG effect of higher brightness.On the contrary, when the number of value added picture sub-pixel more after a little while, but the GTG effect that then this sub-pixel apparent brightness is lower.
For instance, when the sub-pixel value of importing is one 8 binary bit values, and the data bits that liquid crystal indicator can receive is when only being 6, known technology is with least significant bit (LSB) value (the least significant bits of 2 of minimums in the input picture sub-pixel data, LSB) directly delete need not, make the figure place of the sub-pixel data after deleting equal the figure place that liquid crystal display can show.For example, when the sub-pixel value of input was 110010112, the sub-pixel data after deleting was 1100102, and effective place value (112) of minimum 2 is deleted.In comparison, method for displaying image 40 can for example show desired GTG value with 4 continuous pictures, if order video picture with 1100112,1100102,1100112 and 1100112, liquid crystal indicator just can show 110010112 GTG value, wherein 1100112 4 continuous pictures appearance 3 times, and 1100102 4 continuous pictures appearance 1 time.By that analogy, if the sub-pixel value of input is 110010102 o'clock, effective place value (102) of minimum 2 deleted, then can make 1100112 to occur 2 times at 4 continuous pictures, and 1100102 also occur 2 times at 4 continuous pictures.In other words, method for displaying image 40 is that the data bits that can receive because of liquid crystal indicator is limited, and according to the least significant bit (LSB) value of being deleted, decision needs the number of value added picture sub-pixel.In above-mentioned example, 1100112 are the sub-pixel value after value added, and its number of times that occurs in continuous pictures is inevitable corresponding to the least significant bit (LSB) value of being deleted.
It should be noted that if sub-pixel is all value added at every turn, then will be equal to the brightness of the higher gray scale value that liquid crystal indicator originally just comprises; On the contrary, if all sub-pixels are not value added, then it will be equal to the brightness of original GTG value.Therefore, the present invention the grey exponent number that can increase, can not subtract 1 at most more than the number of continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K.Such as if K equals 4, the grey exponent number that then utilizes 40 of method for displaying image to increase is 3, just is three kinds of situations of 012,102,112 corresponding to LSB.
Simultaneously, according to method for displaying image 40 of the present invention, in each picture corresponding to the display unit of positive polarity and need the number of value added picture sub-pixel must be equal to and need the number of value added picture sub-pixel corresponding to the display unit of negative polarity.Preferably, before carrying out this step, can be block Block_1~Block_n with each picture segmentation earlier.In each block, the sub-pixel that need are value added is evenly distributed in the display unit of positive polarity and the display unit of negative polarity.Thus, not only can make indivedual liquid crystal displays in ofer short duration relatively time interval (approximately less than 0.1 second), via vision quick modified-image is produced average effect, obtain the effect of newly-increased GTG, simultaneously also can be in spatial interval, via needing value added picture sub-pixel to be evenly distributed in the picture sub-pixel of positive polarity and negative polarity, to eliminate phenomenon of picture flicker.
In addition, preferably, when if all sub-pixel GTGs of a block Block_x all equate among block Block_1~Block_n, then can be in each picture of continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K, the number of the value added sub-pixel of the need of block Block_x is equated.Thus, be arranged in the block Block_x of continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K, need the number of value added picture sub-pixel just can keep necessarily view data being play in more stable mode.Via the method, in the process of playing continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_K, the present invention needing can to avoid the number of value added picture sub-pixel to produce erratic disturbance situation and influence the effect of vision.For instance, if include 16 sub-pixels among the block Block_x, if K equals 4, then Xin Zeng grey exponent number is 3.If when the least significant bit (LSB) value of being deleted was binary bit 01, the value added sub-pixel numbers of block Block_x in FRAME_1~FRAME_4 must be all 4 (16 ÷ 4 * 1).By that analogy, when being binary bit 10 as if the least significant bit (LSB) value of being deleted, the value added sub-pixel numbers of block Block_x in FRAME_1~FRAME_4 is all 8 (16 ÷ 4 * 2).Secondly, when being binary bit 11 as if the least significant bit (LSB) value of being deleted, the value added sub-pixel numbers of block Block_x in FRAME_1~FRAME_4 is all 12 (16 ÷ 4 * 3).Thus, need value added sub-pixel just can be evenly distributed among FRAME_1~FRAME_4, reach best dynamic imaging effect.
As from the foregoing, the present invention can summarize the value added distribution plan of available polarity according to the positive and negative polarity and the block of liquid crystal indicator.Please refer to 5A to 5C and scheme, 5A to 5C figure is the embodiment synoptic diagram that the present invention is used for the value added distribution of polarity of a single-point reversible type plane liquid crystal indicator.Wherein, for the sake of clarity, 5A to 5C figure is an example with 16 sub-pixels of 4 * 4 arranged, how to illustrate that the polarity according to liquid crystal indicator distributes, and sets the position that needs value added sub-pixel among continuous pictures FRAME_1~FRAME_4.Wherein, " * " symbol is promptly represented needs value added sub-pixel, and "+" symbology liquid crystal display is a positive polarity, and "-" symbology liquid crystal display is a negative polarity.Specifically, 5A figure shows the dynamic value added distribution of least significant bit (LSB) value LSB=012, and 5B figure shows the dynamic value added distribution of least significant bit (LSB) value LSB=102, and 5C figure shows the dynamic value added distribution of least significant bit (LSB) value LSB=112.Polarity distribution meeting that it should be noted that liquid crystal indicator changes along with the change of continuous pictures.For example, in 5A to 5C figure, picture FRAME_1 and FRAME_3 have identical polarity and distribute, and picture FRAME_2 and FRAME_4 have the polarity distribution that identical polarity distributes and differs from picture FRAME_1 and FRAME_3
Please refer to 6A to 6C and scheme, 6A to 6C figure is the embodiment synoptic diagram that the present invention is used for the value added distribution of polarity of a two point reversible type plane liquid crystal indicator.6A to the 6C figure symbol that uses all continues the example of 5A to 5C figure, in the hope of succinctly.By 5A to 5C figure and 6A to 6C figure as can be known, the present invention can be used for increasing the grey exponent number of 2 positions, and distributes not simultaneously when polarity, needs the operating principle that the position at value added sub-pixel place must corresponding change.To explanation of the present invention, this area tool is known the knowledgeable usually according to above-mentioned, when knowing that the present invention also is different from the situation of the polarity distribution of above-mentioned single-point reversible type and double-point inversion formula liquid crystal indicator applicable to the polarity distribution.This area tool knows that usually the knowledgeable also ought know the block that the value added distribution of polarity is comprised, and also may comprise the sub-pixel of other numbers, and represents with other big or small matrix-style.For example, the value added distribution of polarity can only comprise 4 sub-pixels, and with 2 * 2 matrix representation, is used for increasing the grey exponent number of 1 position.Perhaps, the value added distribution of polarity also can include 8 sub-pixels, and with 4 * 2 matrix representation.At last, this area tool knows that usually the knowledgeable also ought know that principle of the present invention also can be applicable to increase the not grey exponent number of coordination.
According to the present invention, when the figure place of the data that can receive when the plane liquid crystal indicator is less than the figure place of input picture, then can promote grey exponent number via method for displaying image 40.In precedent, when input picture is 8, and liquid crystal indicator is merely able to accept 6 view data, then can increase the grey exponent number of equivalence according to method for displaying image 40.If liquid crystal indicator is a single-point reversible type liquid crystal indicator, then can use the example of 5A to 5C figure, to increase the GTG of 2 positions.If liquid crystal indicator is a two point reversible type liquid crystal indicator, then can use 6A to 6C to scheme, to increase the GTG of 2 positions.Therefore, the present invention can arrange the value added distribution of its polarity according to the positive-negative polarity of value added display unit, to eliminate scintillation, makes image quality be able to obvious lifting.
