Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

Referring to fig. 1, a schematic structural diagram of a display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, where the display device may be a device capable of outputting visual images such as pictures or videos, such as a touch screen of a mobile phone or a pad display screen. The technical scheme in the embodiment is mainly used for prolonging the service life of the display equipment.

Specifically, the display device in this embodiment may include the following structure:

the display screen 1 comprises at least a first display area 2 and a second display area 3 in the display screen 1, wherein the first display area 2 is used for displaying a first content and for capturing an image, and the second display area 3 is used for displaying a second content, wherein the first display area 2 and the second display area 3 are adjacent to each other with respect to an edge.

An image capturing component 4 is disposed at an off-screen position a corresponding to the first display area 2 in the display screen, as shown in fig. 2, the image capturing component 4 may be a camera or the like, so that the display device can achieve an off-screen image capturing function, such as capturing pictures or capturing videos. It should be noted that, when the first display area 2 is used for acquiring an image, the screen brightness of the first display area 2 during content display is reduced or the screen brightness of the first display area 2 during content display is blank, so that more light passes through the screen area corresponding to the first display area 2 and reaches the image acquisition component 4, thereby implementing image acquisition under the screen.

It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the first content and the second content are different, and thus, the content displayed in the first display area 2 and the content displayed in the second display area 3 are different, for example, a video picture is displayed in the second display area 3, and one icon content related to the video picture can be displayed in the first display area 2 or other content unrelated to the video picture can be displayed in the second display area 2.

The first display area 2 and the second display area 3 are adjacent to each other with respect to the edge, and different from the arrangement mode that the first display area 2 is surrounded by the second display area 3, the content displayed in the first display area 2 does not affect the content display effect of the two display areas on the display screen 1 even if the content displayed in the second display area 3 is irrelevant.

The first content displayed on the first display area 2 does not need to be kept synchronous with the content on the second display area 3, so that the first display area 2 does not need to carry out too frequent current control for keeping synchronous content display with the second display area, and therefore, the condition that the screen of the display screen area corresponding to the first display area 2 is damaged can be avoided;

meanwhile, the edges of the first display area 2 and the second display area 3 are adjacent, so that even if the contents of the two display areas are different, or even if the first display area 2 needs to be blacked or the screen brightness is reduced during image acquisition, the display effect of displaying the second content on the second display area 3 cannot be influenced, and therefore, the display effect on the second display area can be guaranteed, the service life of the screen of the first display area can be prolonged, and the service life of the display screen can be prolonged.

According to the above scheme, in the display device provided by the first embodiment of the present application, the two display areas on the display screen are arranged to be adjacent to each other at the edges, and different contents are displayed on the two display areas, which is different from a case that one content is synchronously displayed on the two display areas in the prior art, in the present embodiment, too frequent current control of the first display area for maintaining synchronous content display with the second display area can be avoided, and therefore, as time goes on, the first display area cannot be damaged by the screen, so that the usable time of the display screen is prolonged, and the purpose of prolonging the service life of the display screen is achieved.

In one implementation, the first content displayed in the first display area 2 includes target reminder information, where the target reminder information is related to a first application in the display device. Specifically, the target prompt information may be application state information of the first application, such as a current time value of the time application, as shown in fig. 3; alternatively, the target graphical information may be status information of a specific component in the display device obtained by the first application, such as a battery remaining capacity monitored by the battery capacity monitoring application and a WiFi signal strength monitored by the WiFi module, as shown in fig. 4.

It should be noted that the first display area 2 may be an angular position area on the display screen as shown in fig. 1, or the first display area 2 may be a bar-shaped edge position area on the display screen as shown in fig. 3, and in a specific implementation, the position or the shape of the first display area 2 may be set as required to adapt to the usage habits of different users.

In one implementation, the first content displayed in the first display area 2 is usable to perform a target function, wherein the target function is associated with at least one second application in the display device. Specifically, after receiving an input operation by the user on the first display area 2, a target function corresponding to the first content may be executed on the display device in response to the input operation, the target function being used to operate one second application in the display device, or the target function being used to operate a plurality of second applications in the display device.

For example, the first content in the first display area 2 includes any one or any multiple of an application closing control, an application minimizing control, an application full screen control, and the like of a video playing application in the display device, so that after an input operation for a certain control is received on the first display area 2, an application interface of the video playing application on the display device is closed, minimized, or displayed in full screen, as shown in fig. 5;

for another example, the first content in the first display area 2 includes an application identifier of a chat application in the display device, and after an input operation for the application identifier is received on the first display area 2, the application interface of the current video playback application is switched to the application interface of the chat application on the display device, as shown in fig. 6.

In one implementation, the first content displayed in the first display area 2 and the second content displayed in the second display area 3 belong to the same output content, but the first content and the second content are different although they belong to the same output content. In one case, the second content is a content including key information in the output content, such as a fighting scene content in the game interface, and the first content is a content not including key information in the output content, such as a character attribute content in the game interface, as shown in fig. 7. In another case, the first content is a content of the output content that is operated with a frequency lower than a threshold, or the first content is a content of the output content that is operated with a display luminance or a pixel value luminance lower than a threshold. For example, the first content in the first display area 2 and the second content in the second display area 3 are both the content of a browser page, the second content is the content of a page body, and the first content is the content of a page closing control, a page minimizing control, a page maximizing control, and the like of the browser page, as shown in fig. 8.

In one implementation, the first display region 2 may be one, and the first display region 2 may be disposed at a side angle position x1 of the second display region 3, as shown in fig. 9, or the first display region 2 may be a bar structure and disposed at an edge position y1 of one side of the second display region 3, as shown in fig. 10.

In this case, one or more image capturing elements 4 may be arranged in the display screen at a position a below the screen corresponding to the first display area 2.

The number of the image capturing components 4 may be one, as shown in fig. 2, the image capturing component 4 at the sub-screen position a can capture external light passing through the display screen, and generate one or more frames of images according to the captured light, where a plurality of frames of images may be understood as independent images or as a video composed of a plurality of continuous images;

alternatively, the number of image pickup sections 4 may be plural, as shown in fig. 11, and the plural image pickup sections 4 at the sub-screen position a are arranged in a prescribed layout manner, such as one column, two columns, or a triangle as shown in fig. 11. The plurality of image acquisition components 4 at the position A below the screen can respectively acquire the external light rays penetrating through the display screen and generate one or more frames of images together according to the acquired multiple paths of external light rays. It should be noted that the more image-capturing elements 4 at the sub-screen position a, the more light is captured, and the higher the image quality of the resulting image.

In a specific implementation, the image capturing components 4 at the off-screen position a may be divided into a main capturing component and an auxiliary capturing component based on preset configuration parameters, and if there are two cameras at the off-screen position a, the two cameras are divided into a main shooting mode and an auxiliary shooting mode, which are respectively used for implementing their respective functions, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the image quality of the generated image.

In another implementation, the first display region 2 may be plural, and the plural first display regions 2 may be respectively disposed at angular positions x1, x2, x3, x4 of plural sides of the second display region 3, as shown in fig. 12; alternatively, the first display region 2 has a stripe structure and is disposed at edge positions y1 and y2 at both ends of the second display region 3, respectively, as shown in fig. 13; alternatively, two first display regions 2 are disposed at both side angle positions x1 and x2 of one end of the second display region 3, respectively, and the other first display region 2 is disposed at one side edge position y1 of the other end of the second display region 3, as shown in fig. 14.

At this time, one or more image capturing components 4 are respectively arranged in the display screen 1 at the position below the screen corresponding to each first display area 2, and the light rays captured by the plurality of image capturing components 4 are used for generating images.

It should be noted that only one image capturing element 4 may be disposed on each first display area 2, as shown in fig. 15, one image capturing element 4 may be disposed on each of the under-screen positions A, B, C, D corresponding to the four angular positions of the second display area 3, or as shown in fig. 16, one image capturing element 4 may be disposed on each of the under-screen positions A, B, E corresponding to the two angular positions and one side edge position of the second display area 3;

alternatively, one or more image capturing devices 4 may be disposed on each of the first display regions 2, as shown in fig. 17, two image capturing devices 4 may be disposed on the corresponding positions A, B under the screen at two angular positions of the second display region 3, or as shown in fig. 18, one image capturing device 4 may be disposed on the corresponding positions a and B under the screen at two angular positions of the second display region 3, and two image capturing devices 4 may be disposed on the corresponding position E at one edge of the second display region 3;

based on the above implementation, the image capturing components 4 disposed in the first display area 2 at the sub-screen position can respectively capture the external light passing through the display screen, and collectively generate one or more frames of images according to the captured light.

It should be noted that the more image capturing elements 4 of the first display area 2 in the sub-screen position, the more light is captured, and the higher the image quality of the resulting image.

In one implementation, in a case where the image capturing part 4 is used for capturing light, in order to enable as much light as possible to enter the photosensitive unit of the image capturing part 4 through the first display region 2, an output luminance parameter of the first content output by the first display region 2 is lower than a luminance threshold, for example, the display luminance of the first content is reduced to avoid an influence on external light; or, in the case that the image capturing element 4 is used to capture light, the first display area 2 may be directly shaded, so that the maximum amount of external light can enter the image capturing element 4 through the first display area 2, thereby achieving higher quality image generation.

In a specific implementation, the image capturing components 4 in the sub-screen position may be divided into a main capturing component and a sub-capturing component based on a predetermined configuration parameter. For example, when there are four cameras at the position under the screen, the four cameras are divided into a main shooting and three sub-shots, which are respectively used for realizing respective functions, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the image quality of the generated image.

For example, in the plurality of image capturing elements 4, each image capturing element may have a corresponding shooting mode, such as a color shooting mode, a black and white shooting mode, a depth shooting mode, a wide angle shooting mode, and a telephoto shooting mode, and accordingly, each image capturing element may be pre-configured in the corresponding shooting mode according to different shooting requirements to generate an image through a corresponding image processing algorithm. Taking an image acquisition component as a camera as an example, the following is concrete:

when the distance between the cameras is small, the difference of the framing range between the cameras is small, so that adverse effects caused by dislocation can not be generated when multi-frame images acquired by the cameras are fused, therefore, different exposure and color information of the cameras can be utilized for fusion, more real colors and richer details can be displayed, and the imaging quality is greatly improved, for example, the camera can be used for night scene or dark light photographing enhancement, dynamic range increase and other applications.

When the distance between the cameras is large, the difference between the images obtained by the cameras is large enough, at the moment, depth image detection algorithm can be used for obtaining depth information, and then the depth is used for processing background blurring, three-dimensional reconstruction, action recognition and the like, so that a depth image is obtained.

The following describes image processing performed by the display device, taking two cameras as an example:

1. be provided with camera under two screens in the display device, be the colored mode of shooing, at this moment, camera mainly used calculates the depth of field under two screens, realizes background blurring and refocusing, and background blurring indicates: in order to simulate the blurring effect of the single lens reflex, after the distance between each pixel point in a photographing scene and the camera is obtained, the scene definition in a focusing plane is kept through an algorithm, and refocusing refers to: and taking a picture and focusing by using the calculated depth of field information.

2. The display equipment is provided with two under-screen cameras which are respectively in a color shooting mode and a black and white shooting mode, at the moment, the two under-screen cameras are mainly used for improving the shooting quality influenced by dim light or night scenes, for example, a large aperture of the black and white lens ensures that the light incoming amount is enough, the detail outline of a picture scene in the dark is highlighted, and the color lens is responsible for capturing the color.

3. Being provided with two cameras under the screen in the display device, being wide angle shooting mode and long burnt shooting mode respectively, mainly used optics zooms, for example, with the camera collocation that two focuses are different, the wide-angle lens of wide visual angle can see very extensively, but see the object of distant department clearly, and the long burnt lens of narrow visual angle, although the scope of seeing is not big, but more clear that sees. When in photographing, relatively smooth zooming can be realized through the switching of the lens and the fusion algorithm.

4. The display equipment is provided with two under-screen cameras which are respectively in a color shooting mode and a depth shooting mode and are mainly used for three-dimensional reconstruction. The depth shooting mode is a lens for directly acquiring the physical distance between an object in a scene and a camera. According to different principles, there are several main ways of flight time, structured light and laser scanning. When the depth map is obtained, the next step is to fuse the depth information into the normal RGB image. The structured light is collected by the camera after projecting specific light information to the surface of the object. And calculating the position and depth information of the object according to the change of the optical signal caused by the object, thereby restoring the whole three-dimensional space.

In one implementation, the display parameters of the first display area 2 outputting the first content are different from the display parameters of the second display area 3 outputting the second content. The display parameters may include display brightness and/or display gray scale. Based on this, in this embodiment, parameters such as the display brightness and/or the display gray scale of the first content output by the first display area 2 are controlled, so that the frequency of the current control corresponding to the first display area 2 on the display screen 1 is low, thereby further prolonging the service life of the screen on the first display area, and achieving the purpose of prolonging the service life of the screen.

Referring to fig. 19, a schematic structural diagram of an electronic device according to a second embodiment of the present application is shown, where the electronic device may be an electronic device that has a display screen and is capable of acquiring an off-screen image, such as a mobile phone or a pad.

Specifically, the electronic device in this embodiment may include the following structure:

a processor 1901 for generating first content and second content;

a display device 1902 comprising a display screen, said display screen comprising at least a first display area for displaying said first content and for capturing an image, and a second display area for displaying said second content, wherein: the first display area and the second display area are adjacent to each other with respect to an edge.

Of course, in the present embodiment, the display device 1902 further includes an image capturing component disposed at an off-screen position corresponding to the first display area in the display screen, so as to capture an image.

It can be known from the foregoing solution that, in the electronic device provided in the second embodiment of the present application, by setting the two display areas on the display screen to be edge-adjacent, and displaying different contents on the two display areas, unlike a case in which one content is synchronously displayed on the two display areas in the prior art, the current control performed by the first display area too frequently to keep the synchronous content display with the second display area can be avoided in this embodiment, and therefore, as time goes on, the screen of the first display area is not damaged, so that the usable time of the display screen is prolonged, and the purpose of prolonging the service life of the display screen is achieved.

Taking the realization of shooting under the screen on the mobile phone screen as an example, this application proposes a technical scheme in order to improve the life of mobile phone screen: the CUD area with poor service life is designed at the corner or the edge of the screen, so that the CUD area displays fixed icons or state information. In the display screen, for aesthetic reasons, the display is usually displayed in a certain arc at 4 corners of the screen, such as the corners 1 to 4 in fig. 20, and one side edge strip-shaped area in fig. 21, such as two corners at one side in fig. 22, in this application, one or more cameras and the like are placed below the screen corresponding to these corners, so that the content displayed in full screen by a certain running application on the mobile phone screen is limited to the Normal area, and thus, neither the corners 1 to 4 nor the edge strip-shaped area is displayed, and the display life of the CUD area is greatly prolonged;

in an alternative implementation manner, the 4 corner or edge bar regions may be used to display information such as corresponding time, network strength, wifi icon, battery level, and the like, or some favorite applications that the user can define by himself/herself are placed in the 4 corner or edge bar regions, so as to realize fast and free switching between applications. In addition, the 4 corner or edge bar regions can also be used to display a window menu of a web interface or application, such as a minimize, full screen, close, etc. icon or menu.
