Description

Screen brightness adjusting method and device and display device
Technical Field
The disclosure relates to the technical field of computers, in particular to a screen brightness adjusting method.
Background
With the impact of the trend of large screen, full screen, and thin and Light machine type, more and more mobile phones use Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) screens. Compared with a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) screen, the OLED screen has many advantages: light and thin, power saving, good color and the like.
At present, most of mobile phones using an OLED screen adjust the brightness of the screen using a dimming mode of high-brightness Direct Current (DC) dimming and low-brightness Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) dimming.
However, when the PWM is used for dimming, the screen of the mobile phone is always in an alternate state between on and off, so as to achieve the purpose of dimming the screen brightness. Therefore, when the screen is in the PWM dimming mode, the problem of stroboscopic light follows. Especially, when the brightness of the screen is low, the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal corresponding to the PWM dimming is small, which is easy to bring a strong fatigue feeling to the eyes of the user.
Disclosure of Invention
The embodiment of the disclosure provides a screen brightness adjusting method and device and a display device, which can avoid that the duty ratio of PWM is small in a low-brightness mode so as to reduce the fatigue brought to eyes of a user in the PWM dimming process.
In order to achieve the purpose, the embodiment of the disclosure adopts the following technical scheme:
in a first aspect, a method for adjusting screen brightness is provided. The screen brightness adjusting method comprises the following steps: in a first brightness mode, dividing all pixels in a screen into N pixel groups; and taking N frames of continuously displayed pictures as a display cycle, driving pixels in the corresponding Mth pixel group to display when the Mth frame of pictures in the display cycle are displayed, and simultaneously adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal to a first threshold, wherein N is more than or equal to M and is more than or equal to 1. The number of the pixels in each pixel group is equivalent and is not overlapped, the pixels in each pixel group are uniformly distributed in the screen, and each pixel group can correspondingly display a frame of picture. N is more than or equal to 2 and is a positive integer. The ratio of the display luminance of the mth frame picture in the screen to the maximum display luminance of the screen, which is the ratio of the number of pixels in the mth pixel group to the number of all pixels in the screen, is multiplied by the first threshold.
The method for adjusting the screen brightness provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can divide all pixels in a screen into a plurality of pixel groups according to a first brightness mode, and then periodically and selectively light all pixels on the screen by taking a plurality of frames of pictures with corresponding numbers displayed continuously as a display cycle, that is, periodically and one by one drives each pixel group to independently display the corresponding frame of picture. Thus, while each pixel group is driven to display the corresponding frame picture, the duty ratio of the corresponding pulse width modulation signal can be adjusted to the first threshold value, so that the ratio of the display brightness of the frame picture in the screen to the maximum display brightness of the screen is equal to the ratio of the number of pixels in the corresponding pixel group to the number of all pixels in the screen multiplied by the first threshold value. Therefore, the display brightness of the frame picture under the first brightness mode can be effectively adjusted by controlling the duty ratio of the number of pixels in the corresponding pixel group and the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal.
In this way, the embodiment of the present disclosure can flexibly adjust the luminous flux entering the human eye by controlling the lighting of a part of pixels in the screen to display the corresponding frame picture, so as to flexibly adjust the display brightness of the screen. Therefore, in the first brightness mode, for example, in a low brightness mode (dark environment), the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal is combined to adjust the screen brightness, so that the situation that the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal is small can be avoided, that is, the switching of the black and white pictures sensed by human eyes due to the long display time of the black pictures is avoided, the flicker feeling of the human eyes can be reduced, and the fatigue feeling brought to the eyes of the user in the PWM dimming process is effectively reduced.
In addition, the number of the pixels in each pixel group is equivalent and is not overlapped, the pixels in each pixel group are uniformly distributed in the screen, and each pixel group correspondingly displays a frame of picture, so that the uniformity of the display brightness of the screen is favorably ensured.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments disclosed herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
Currently, most OLED display screens adopt a low-frequency PWM dimming technology of 250 Hz. When the screen brightness is low, the stroboscopic rate caused by the low-frequency PWM dimming technique also becomes low, that is, the duty ratio of the corresponding pulse width modulation signal becomes small, so that the stroboscopic is more easily perceived by human eyes. Therefore, sensitive people can feel discomfort and have visual fatigue more easily.
Based on this, the embodiment of the disclosure provides a screen brightness adjusting method. Referring to fig. 1, the method for adjusting the screen brightness includes S100 to S200.
S100, in the first luminance mode, all pixels in the screen are divided into N pixel groups.
The first brightness mode is a brightness mode in which the display brightness of the screen is when the screen brightness adjustment method in the embodiment of the present disclosure is used to adjust the brightness of the screen, that is, the brightness mode in which the screen brightness adjustment method in the embodiment of the present disclosure is suitable for use. The method is specifically selected and determined according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the disclosure does not limit the method.
Optionally, the first luminance mode may include at least one of a high luminance mode, a middle luminance mode, or a low luminance mode. Generally, the current display brightness value of the screen in the high brightness mode is 70% to 100% (more than 70% and including 100%) of the maximum display brightness of the screen, the current display brightness value of the screen in the middle brightness mode is 30% to 70% (more than 30% and including 70%) of the maximum display brightness of the screen, and the current display brightness value of the screen in the low brightness mode is 0% to 30% (including 0% and 30%) of the maximum display brightness of the screen.
Illustratively, the first luminance mode is a low luminance mode.
S200, taking N frames of continuously displayed pictures as a display cycle, driving pixels in a corresponding Mth pixel group to display when an Mth frame of pictures in the display cycle is displayed, and meanwhile adjusting the duty ratio of a pulse width modulation signal to a first threshold value, wherein N is more than or equal to M and is more than or equal to 1.
Wherein N is more than or equal to 2 and is a positive integer. That is, all pixels in the screen display area may be divided into at least two pixel groups.
Further, the division of the pixel group needs to correspond to satisfying the following condition: the number of pixels in each pixel group is equal (i.e. the number is the same or approximately the same) and does not overlap with each other (i.e. the pixels in any two pixel groups are not repeated), the pixels in each pixel group are uniformly distributed in the screen, and each pixel group can correspondingly display one frame of picture. Therefore, the luminous flux entering human eyes is approximately the same when each frame of picture is displayed, and the uniformity of the brightness of the whole screen when each frame of picture is displayed is favorably ensured.
When the screen displays, the plurality of pixel groups are periodically lighted up by taking the continuous frame pictures with the number corresponding to the pixel groups as a display cycle, that is, each pixel group is periodically driven one by one to independently display the corresponding frame picture. Thus, while each pixel group is driven to display the corresponding frame picture, the duty ratio of the corresponding pulse width modulation signal can be adjusted to the first threshold value, so that: the ratio of the display brightness of the frame picture in the screen to the maximum display brightness of the screen is equal to the ratio of the number of pixels in the corresponding pixel group to the number of all pixels in the screen multiplied by the first threshold. And the display brightness of the frame picture in the screen is also the display brightness of the current screen.
Since the number of pixels in each pixel group is comparable, the ratio of the number of pixels in the corresponding pixel group to the number of total pixels in the screen can be considered to be or approximately 1/N. Thus, the first threshold is the ratio of N × the display luminance of the current screen to the maximum display luminance of the screen. Therefore, it is easy to see that, compared with the method of adjusting the screen display brightness by simply adjusting the duty ratio of the pwm signal, the method of adjusting the screen display brightness provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is beneficial to avoiding the situation that the duty ratio of the pwm signal is small.
The method for adjusting the screen brightness provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can divide all pixels in a screen into a plurality of pixel groups according to a first brightness mode, and then periodically and selectively light all pixels on the screen by taking a plurality of frames of pictures with corresponding numbers displayed continuously as a display cycle, that is, periodically and one by one drives each pixel group to independently display the corresponding frame of picture. Thus, while each pixel group is driven to display the corresponding frame picture, the duty ratio of the corresponding pulse width modulation signal can be adjusted to the first threshold value, so that the ratio of the display brightness of the frame picture in the screen to the maximum display brightness of the screen is equal to the ratio of the number of pixels in the corresponding pixel group to the number of all pixels in the screen multiplied by the first threshold value. Therefore, the display brightness of the frame picture under the first brightness mode can be effectively adjusted by controlling the duty ratio of the number of pixels in the corresponding pixel group and the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal.
In this way, the embodiment of the present disclosure can flexibly adjust the luminous flux entering the human eye by controlling the lighting of a part of pixels in the screen to display the corresponding frame picture, so as to flexibly adjust the display brightness of the screen. Therefore, under the first brightness mode, for example, under a low-brightness mode (dark environment), the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal is combined to adjust the screen brightness, that is, switching of a black-and-white picture sensed by human eyes due to a long display time of the black-state picture is avoided, so that human eye flicker is reduced, and fatigue of the user eyes in the PWM dimming process is effectively reduced.
The above-mentioned ways of grouping the pixels in the screen may be various, and are specifically determined according to actual needs.
In some embodiments, the groups of pixels are divided by parity of the row number in which the corresponding pixel is located. Please refer to fig. 2, where N is 2. That is, in the first luminance mode, all pixels in the screen are divided into 2 pixel groups. The 1 st pixel group i includes pixels of odd-numbered lines and the 2 nd pixel group ii includes pixels of even-numbered lines.
One display cycle is 2 frames of pictures that are displayed continuously. When the 1 st frame picture in the cycle is displayed, the pixels in the 1 st pixel group I are driven line by line for display. And simultaneously adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal to correspond to the first threshold value. Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of pixel lighting during the display of the frame 1. And driving the pixels in the 2 nd pixel group II row by row for displaying when the 2 nd frame picture in the cycle is displayed. And simultaneously adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal to correspond to the first threshold value. Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of pixel lighting during display of the 2 nd frame picture.
Here, the first threshold is a ratio of the display luminance of the 2 × frame picture in the screen to the maximum display luminance of the screen. For example, when the display brightness of the frame picture in the screen is 25% of the maximum display brightness of the screen, the first threshold can be correspondingly determined to be 50%.
In other embodiments, the groups of pixels are divided by parity of the column ordinal number in which the corresponding pixel is located. Please refer to fig. 5, N is 2. That is, in the first luminance mode, all pixels in the screen are divided into 2 pixel groups. The 1 st pixel group i includes pixels of odd columns and the 2 nd pixel group ii includes pixels of even columns.
One display cycle is 2 frames of pictures that are displayed continuously. When the picture of the 1 st frame in the display cycle, the pixels in the 1 st pixel group I are driven column by column for display. And simultaneously adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal to correspond to the first threshold value. Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of pixel lighting during the display of the frame 1 screen. And driving the pixels in the 2 nd pixel group II column by column for displaying when the 2 nd frame picture in the cycle is displayed. And simultaneously adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal to correspond to the first threshold value. Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of pixel lighting during display of the 2 nd frame screen.
Here, the specific value of the first threshold is determined in the same manner as in the foregoing embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.
In still other embodiments, the pixel groups are divided according to the row sequence number and the parity of the column sequence number of the corresponding pixels. Referring to fig. 8, N is 4. That is, in the first luminance mode, all pixels in the screen are divided into 4 pixel groups. The 1 st pixel group I comprises pixels in odd rows and odd columns, the 2 nd pixel group II comprises pixels in even rows and even columns, the 3 rd pixel group III comprises pixels in even rows and odd columns, and the 4 th pixel group IV comprises pixels in odd rows and even columns.
4 frames of pictures which are continuously displayed are taken as a display cycle. In displaying the picture of the 1 st frame in the cycle, the data lines provide data signals to the pixels of the odd columns, and simultaneously provide row scanning signals to the pixels of the odd rows line by line through the grid lines so as to drive the pixels in the 1 st pixel group I to display. And simultaneously adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal to correspond to the first threshold value. Fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of pixel lighting during the display of the 1 st frame screen.
In displaying the 2 nd frame picture in the cycle, the data signals are provided to the pixels of the even number columns through the data lines, and simultaneously, the row scanning signals are provided to the pixels of the even number rows row by row through the grid lines so as to drive the pixels in the 2 nd pixel group II to display. And simultaneously adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal to correspond to the first threshold value. Fig. 10 is a schematic diagram of pixel lighting during display of the 2 nd frame screen.
In displaying the 3 rd frame picture in the cycle, the data signals are provided to the pixels of the odd columns through the data lines, and simultaneously, the row scanning signals are provided to the pixels of the even rows row by row through the grid lines so as to drive the pixels in the 3 rd pixel group III to display. And simultaneously adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal to correspond to the first threshold value. Fig. 11 is a schematic diagram of pixel lighting during display of the 3 rd frame screen.
In displaying the 4 th frame of picture in the cycle, the data signals are provided to the pixels of the even columns through the data lines, and simultaneously, the row scanning signals are provided to the pixels of the odd rows row by row through the grid lines so as to drive the pixels in the 4 th pixel group IV to display. And simultaneously adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal to correspond to the first threshold value. Fig. 12 is a schematic diagram of pixel lighting in the 4 th frame screen display.
At this time, the first threshold is the ratio of the display luminance of the 4 × frame picture in the screen to the maximum display luminance of the screen. For example, when the display brightness of each frame of picture in the screen is 15% of the maximum display brightness of the screen, it can be determined that the corresponding first threshold is 60%.
In some embodiments, the screen brightness adjusting method further includes: in the second brightness mode, all pixels in the screen can correspondingly display one frame of picture, and the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal is adjusted to adjust the display brightness of the corresponding one frame of picture in the screen. Wherein the luminance of the second luminance mode is greater than the luminance of the first luminance mode.
Optionally, when the first luminance mode is the low luminance mode, the second luminance mode includes at least one of the intermediate luminance mode or the high luminance mode.
Illustratively, the second luminance mode is an intermediate luminance mode.
In the second brightness mode, the single frame picture does not selectively light the pixels in the screen any more, but the display brightness of the corresponding one frame picture in the screen is adjusted by unilaterally adjusting the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal. At this time, the ratio of the display brightness of the frame picture to be displayed on the screen to the maximum display brightness of the screen is the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal. For example, the display brightness of the frame picture to be displayed on the screen is 40% of the maximum display brightness of the screen, and the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal is equal to 40%.
It can be seen that, in the second brightness mode, the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal is unilaterally adjusted to adjust the display brightness of a corresponding frame of picture on the screen, so that the situation that the duty ratio of the pulse width modulation signal is small can be avoided, and discomfort such as eye soreness and the like can not be brought to a user.
In some embodiments, the screen brightness adjusting method further includes: in the third brightness mode, all pixels in the screen can correspondingly display one frame of picture, and the power supply voltage or the data voltage is adjusted to adjust the display brightness of the corresponding frame of picture in the screen. Wherein the brightness of the third brightness mode is greater than the brightness of the second brightness mode.
For example, when the second luminance mode is the middle luminance mode, the third luminance mode includes the high luminance mode.
The driving transistors of the pixels in the screen work in a saturation region of a volt-ampere characteristic curve of the driving transistors in the high-brightness mode, at the moment, the display brightness of the pixels in the screen is adjusted by adjusting the power supply voltage or the data voltage, the method is a simple and easy-to-operate screen brightness adjusting method, and the fatigue of human eyes caused by stroboflash in the PWM dimming process can be effectively avoided under the condition that the good display effect of the screen is guaranteed.
