First, an application scenario of the method provided by the present disclosure will be described, and an application in a terminal will be described as an example. The terminal is a terminal using an OLED screen, and the OLED screen is without a backlight assembly due to the characteristics of the OLED display technology, and the adjustment of the display brightness of the screen is generally that the brightness of the screen is higher than a brightness threshold value by using DC dimming and the brightness of the screen is lower than the brightness threshold value by using PWM dimming. PWM dimming is to adjust the duty ratio of the bright light, that is, adjust the time ratio of the bright light to indirectly adjust the display brightness of the screen, and achieve the effect of controlling the brightness based on the characteristics of human eyes. However, this approach has a problem that the brightness is low and the frequency of the switching between on and off is low below the brightness threshold, which is already to the extent that the human eye can perceive, so that the display effect is poor although the scheme is low in cost. To realize that DC dimming is also used when the brightness of the screen is low, the display brightness of the screen can be adjusted by modifying the color data displayed by the screen, the data displayed by the screen is compressed, the number of bits of color depth is reduced, the brightness of displayed contents can be correspondingly changed, the effect of adjusting the brightness of the screen is achieved, and according to the method provided by the disclosure, the problem of uneven gray level transition caused by color depth reduction can be avoided by modifying the display gray level of the pixel point after the data displayed by the screen is compressed.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a screen dimming method according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, including the following steps.
In step S201, the terminal determines the screen brightness of the current screen.
When the terminal receives the brightness adjustment instruction, firstly determining the screen brightness of the current screen, and when the terminal determines that the screen brightness of the current screen is not lower than the preset brightness, the terminal can adjust the screen brightness of the current screen in a pulse width modulation mode or adjust the brightness of the current screen in a current adjustment mode; when the terminal determines that the brightness of the current screen is lower than the preset brightness, the terminal performs steps S202 to S204 to achieve the purpose of adjusting the screen brightness of the current screen.
It should be noted that, when the terminal receives the brightness adjustment instruction, the terminal may also directly execute the step of compressing the first display interface of the current screen to obtain the second display interface in step 202.
In step S202, when the screen brightness is lower than the preset brightness, the terminal compresses the first display interface of the current screen to obtain a second display interface.
This step can be achieved by the following steps (1) to (2).
(1) When the terminal determines that the screen brightness is lower than the preset brightness, acquiring the target screen brightness to be adjusted, and determining the compression ratio according to the target screen brightness and the current screen brightness. In determining the compression ratio, the terminal may take a ratio of a color depth of the current screen brightness to a color depth of the target screen brightness as the compression ratio.
For example, the color depth of the current screen brightness is 8 bits, which means that 0 to 255 total 256 gray scales, the color depth of the target screen brightness is 6 bits, which means that 0 to 63 total 64 gray scales, and the ratio of the color depth of the current screen brightness to the color depth of the target screen brightness is 0.25, and the compression ratio is 0.25.
(2) After the terminal determines the compression ratio, for each pixel in the first display interface, the terminal determines a fourth gray level of the pixel according to the compression ratio and the third gray level of the pixel, and modifies the gray level of the pixel from the third gray level to the fourth gray level to obtain the second display interface. The first display interface is an interface currently displayed by a screen of the terminal, and the first interface can be a picture, a standby main interface, a frame of a video picture or a browser interface, which is not particularly limited in the disclosure; the second display interface is a display interface obtained by adjusting each pixel point of the first display interface, and the color depth of the second display interface is smaller than that of the first display interface.
The third gray level of the pixel point is the gray level displayed by the pixel point at the current screen brightness, and the fourth gray level of the pixel point is the gray level displayed by the pixel point at the target screen brightness. When the third gray level of the pixel point is adjusted to be the fourth gray level, the following steps are adopted: multiplying the third gray level of the pixel point by the compression ratio to obtain a seventh gray level, wherein the seventh gray level is the gray level after the theoretical third gray level adjustment, and the seventh gray level is taken as a fourth gray level when the seventh gray level is an integer because the displayed gray levels are all integers and no decimal is present; when the seventh gray level is not an integer, the fourth gray level is a whole number down to the seventh gray level.
For example, the gray scale of a certain pixel point is 240, the compression ratio is 0.25, the third gray scale of the pixel point is multiplied by the compression ratio to obtain the seventh gray scale of the pixel point is 60, and the seventh gray scale is taken as the fourth gray scale, namely the fourth gray scale of the pixel point is 60; the third gray level of the other pixel is 253, the compression ratio is 0.25, the third gray level of the pixel is multiplied by the compression ratio to obtain the seventh gray level 63.25 of the pixel, the integer gray level obtained by rounding the seventh gray level downwards is 63, and the fourth gray level of the pixel is 63.
In step S203, the terminal divides the second display interface into a plurality of first display units, each of which includes a plurality of pixel points.
The terminal divides the second display interface into a plurality of preset adjacent pixel points to form a first display unit, namely each first display unit comprises a plurality of pixel points. The number of the preset units may be four, six, or nine, which is not particularly limited in the present disclosure.
In step S204, for each first display unit, the terminal modifies the gray scale of a portion of the pixel points in the first display unit from the first gray scale originally displayed to a second gray scale, where the second gray scale is an adjacent gray scale of the first gray scale, to obtain a second display unit.
After the terminal divides the plurality of first display units, gray scales of pixel points in each first display unit need to be adjusted so as to enable the second display interface to be displayed smoothly. Accordingly, this step can be realized by the following steps (1) to (3).
(1) For each first display unit, the terminal determines a target gray level, which is a transition gray level for enabling the second display interface to display smoothly.
Since each pixel is adjusted from the third gray level to the fourth gray level, there may be a difference between the gray levels displayed by the adjacent first display units. Thus, the terminal can determine the target gray level based on the difference.
In one possible implementation, the terminal may determine the target gray level according to a difference between fourth gray levels of the adjacent two first display units; in another possible implementation, the target gray level may be determined according to a difference between third gray levels of adjacent two first display units.
For example, when the third gray level of the pixel point in a certain first display unit is 252, the fourth gray level of the adjusted pixel point is 63, the third gray level of the pixel point of another first display unit adjacent to the first display unit is 251, and the fourth gray level of the adjusted pixel point is 62, the target gray level is 62.875 when the target gray level is determined according to the third gray level; when the target gray level is determined according to the fourth gray level, the target gray level is 62.5.
(2) And the terminal selects a pixel point for displaying the second gray scale from the first display unit according to the target gray scale.
The terminal determines a first ratio according to the target gray level, the first gray level and the second gray level, wherein the first ratio is a ratio of pixels for displaying the second gray level to pixels included in the first display unit, and the first ratio= (first gray level-target gray level)/(first gray level-second gray level). Wherein the deriving step of the first ratio may be as follows: the number M of the pixels of the first display unit is determined, the first proportion is represented as P, the number of the pixels displaying the second gray scale is MxP, the number of the pixels displaying the first gray scale is Mx (1-P), and according to the target gray scale xM=the first gray scale xM× (1-P) +the second gray scale xM×P, the first proportion = (first gray scale-target gray scale)/(first gray scale-second gray scale) is obtained.
After the terminal determines the first proportion, the number of the pixel points for displaying the second gray scale can be determined according to the number of the pixel points of the first display unit, when the number of the pixel points for displaying the second gray scale determined according to the first proportion is not an integer, the terminal rounds down to obtain an integer number of the pixel points for displaying the second gray scale, and then the pixel points for displaying the second gray scale are selected from the pixel points included in the first display unit according to a preset selection rule. The preset selection rule may be a random selection or a selection mode based on uniform distribution.
(3) And the terminal modifies the gray scale of the determined pixel point from the first gray scale to the second gray scale to obtain a second display unit.
It should be noted that, the greater the above-mentioned preset number, that is, the more pixels each first display unit includes, the greater the target gray scale range that the second display unit can represent.
For example, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a second display unit shown according to an exemplary embodiment. In fig. 3, each small square represents a pixel, the second display unit includes 9 pixels, the first gray scale displayed by the pixels is 62, the second gray scale displayed by the pixels is 63, and the target gray scale determined according to the fourth gray scale is 62.5, so that the first ratio can be calculated to be 0.5. That is, 4.5 pixels are selected from the 9 pixels to display the second gray scale, and since there is no half of the pixels, 4 pixels are selected from the 9 pixels to display the second gray scale. According to the uniformly distributed selection mode, the gray scales of 4 selected pixel points from 9 pixel points are modified from the first gray scale to the second gray scale.
Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating another second display unit according to an exemplary embodiment, in fig. 4, the second display unit includes 9 pixels, the first gray level displayed by the pixels is 63, and the second gray level displayed by the pixels is 62. The third gray scales before the adjustment of the two adjacent second display units are 252 and 251 respectively, and the target gray scale determined according to the third gray scales is 62.875, so that the first ratio can be calculated to be 0.125. That is, 1.125 pixel points are selected from 9 pixel points to display the second gray level, and 1 pixel point is selected from 9 pixel points to display the second gray level because half pixel points do not exist.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram illustrating another second display unit according to an exemplary embodiment, and 3 pixel points are selected from 9 pixel points in fig. 5 to display a second gray level.
It should be noted that, since the target gray level and the gray level actually displayed are not identical, there is still a certain error, the source of the error is that the number of the pixels displaying the second gray level determined according to the first ratio is not an integer, and step S205 may be performed to further adjust the gray level actually displayed so as to be closer to the target gray level.
For example, taking fig. 5 as an example, the target gray level of the second display unit in fig. 5 is 62.125, and the actual gray level is 62.333 greater than the target gray level. Therefore, in order to improve the display effect, step S205 is performed.
In step S205, when the gray scale difference between the actual gray scale and the target gray scale displayed by the second display unit is greater than the preset difference, the terminal alternately displays the first gray scale and the second gray scale on the pixel point displaying the second gray scale.
For each second display unit, the terminal determines the actual gray scale displayed by the second display unit according to the gray scale of the pixel point in the second display unit.
