Conventional liquid crystal displays and organic light emitting diode displays are composed of a two-dimensional array of pixels. Wherein each pixel comprises sub-pixels arranged in an order. The colors of the sub-pixels include red (R), green (G), blue (B), and the like. The sub-pixel colors of each pixel are mixed to display the color of the pixel, thereby displaying a color image on the display device.
In the display field of today, the arrangement of sub-pixels of a display panel has been changed. Taking the AMOLED panel as an example, the sub-pixel arrangement order of the display panel is no longer the conventional R, G, B order. Common sub-pixel arrangements include Pentile type and Delta type. Some display manufacturers have display screens with proprietary subpixel arrangement sequences. In such non-conventional RGB display panels, there are various sub-pixel arrangements, which require the research of conversion algorithms from RGB to other pixel structures. A new pixel arrangement requires a sub-pixel rendering method.
The subpixel rendering technique is generally applied to a driving IC of a non-conventional subpixel arrangement display panel. Due to the reduced number of sub-pixels, the sub-pixels of the panel are relatively large, which presents a significant challenge to the display lifetime and display power consumption of the panel.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a display panel adopting a Delta-type sub-pixel arrangement structure. In the Delta-type sub-pixel arrangement structure, a red sub-pixel (R), a green sub-pixel (G), and a blue sub-pixel (B) are sequentially arranged in a specific order. Note that this embodiment is only an example in which a display panel having a Delta-type subpixel arrangement structure is used as a non-standard RGB arrangement display panel. The non-standard RGB arrangement display panel also includes a Pentile type arrangement and the like.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a working flow chart of the system of the present invention, and a sub-pixel rendering method for reducing power consumption of a display panel is performed according to the following steps:
Step 2: and if the panel power consumption needs to be reduced, the brightness adjusting unit is started to convert the image color mode. Carrying out color mode conversion on image data arranged in a non-standard RGB mode to obtain image data in a YUV mode or a Lab mode;
and step 3: adjusting the brightness of the image data in the YUV mode or the Lab mode in the mode to obtain adjusted image data; therefore, the brightness of the panel during display is reduced, and the purpose of reducing the display power consumption is achieved. If the power consumption adjusting function does not need to be started, the step 5 is entered to directly send the data to the storage unit.
And 4, step 4: and performing color mode conversion processing on the adjusted image data, recovering the image data into RGB mode image data and sending the image data into a storage unit.
And 5, storing the image data in the RGB mode, and sending the image data to an external display driving circuit according to a time sequence.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the power consumption of the display panel during the sub-pixel rendering process can be reduced.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of the system of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the dashed line frame 1 is a sub-pixel rendering system capable of reducing power consumption of a display panel according to the present invention, and includes: the device comprises a sub-pixel rendering unit, a brightness adjusting unit and a storage unit; the module 11 is a sub-pixel rendering unit. The method comprises the steps that a sub-pixel rendering unit obtains image data in standard RGB arrangement and processes the image data by using a sub-pixel rendering method to obtain image data in non-standard RGB arrangement; the specific rendering principle is as follows: rendering the image data of the standard RGB arrangement shown in fig. 1 into the image data of the non-standard RGB arrangement shown in fig. 2, while reducing the number of sub-pixels while keeping the image undistorted. The non-standard RGB arrangement comprises Pentile type and Delta type other arrangement structures different from the RGB standard arrangement.
The module 12 is a brightness adjustment unit. When the power consumption needs to be reduced, the module is started. The brightness adjusting unit performs color mode conversion on image data arranged in a non-standard RGB mode to obtain image data in a YUV mode or a Lab mode, performs brightness line adjustment on the image data in the YUV mode or the Lab mode to obtain adjusted image data, and finally performs color mode conversion on the adjusted image data to restore the image data in the RGB mode.
The module 13 is a memory unit. The storage unit stores image data in an RGB mode and transmits the image data to an external display driving circuit in time series. When the brightness adjustment is not started, the storage unit directly receives the image data sent by the sub-pixel rendering unit.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of color mode conversion. As shown in the figure, block 2 is the received image data of RGB color mode. The module 22 is a color mode conversion module, and the specific conversion mode is as follows: the image data of the RGB color mode is converted into a YUV color mode or a Lab color mode. In the YUV mode, Y is the brightness. In Lab mode, L is the brightness. The module 23 is a brightness adjustment module. The essence of the power consumption adjustment is to reduce the power consumption of the display panel by reducing the display brightness of the image after the color mode is switched. The function of block 24 is the reverse of that of block 22, i.e., converting image data in other color modes to image data in standard RGB color modes.
