Alternatively, the number of sub-pixels located in the first display region 1001 is greater than the number of sub-pixels located in the second display region 1002.
Specifically, the sub-pixels may be a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, a blue sub-pixel, and the like, the circuit of each sub-pixel is the same, and the material of the light emitting layer thereof may be different, so that different color display is realized, and the display device is capable of full color display. In this embodiment, the number of the sub-pixels located in the first display area 1001 is greater than the number of the sub-pixels located in the second display area 1002, and the data amount of the original compensation data corresponding to the corresponding first display area 1001 is larger, so that the original compensation data is compressed into the first compensation data, thereby saving the storage space and reducing the cost. The data amount of the original compensation data corresponding to the second display area 1002 is small, and the original compensation data can be directly used as the second compensation data, so that the second display area 1002 can be accurately compensated.
Optionally, the first compensation data includes X compensation data, and the number of sub-pixels located in the first display area 1001 is greater than X; the second compensation data includes Y compensation data, and the number of sub-pixels located in the second display region 1002 is greater than Y.
Specifically, X and Y are natural numbers, when calculating the original compensation data required by the first display area 1001, for example, the luminance at each sub-pixel of the first display area 1001 is obtained by an optical device to calculate the original compensation data required by each sub-pixel, and in the calculation process, a [2 × 2], [2 × 3], [2 × 4] or [4 × 4] Block compensation scheme may be adopted, where the [2 × 2] Block compensation scheme indicates that four sub-pixels corresponding to two adjacent rows and two columns of intersections adopt the same compensation coefficient, that is, the four sub-pixels correspond to one original compensation data, and the remaining compensation schemes are similar to each other and are not described herein again; the four sub-pixels are of the same type, such as red sub-pixels, green sub-pixels or blue sub-pixels; the data amount of the original compensation data is smaller than the number of the sub-pixels of the first display area 1001, so that the data amount of the original compensation data can be reduced, and the data amount of the corresponding first compensation data is also smaller, thereby further saving the storage space and reducing the cost. When calculating the original compensation data required by the second display area 1002, for example, the luminance at each sub-pixel of the second display area 1002 is obtained through an optical device to calculate the original compensation data required by each sub-pixel, and in the calculation, a [2 × 2], [2 × 3], [2 × 4] or [4 × 4] Block compensation scheme can be adopted; the data amount of the original compensation data is smaller than the number of the sub-pixels of the second display area 1002, so that the data amount of the original compensation data can be reduced, and the data amount of the corresponding second compensation data is also smaller, thereby further saving the storage space and reducing the cost.
Optionally, the first compensation data includes M compensation data, and the number of sub-pixels located in the first display area is more than M; the second compensation data comprises N compensation data, and the number of the sub-pixels in the second display area is equal to N.
Specifically, M and N are both natural numbers, when calculating the original compensation data required by the first display area 1001, a [2 × 2], [2 × 3], [2 × 4] or [4 × 4] Block compensation scheme may be adopted, the data amount of the original compensation data is smaller than the number of sub-pixels of the first display area 1001, the data amount of the original compensation data can be reduced, and the data amount of the corresponding first compensation data is also smaller, thereby further saving the storage space and reducing the cost. When the original compensation data required by the second display area 1002 is calculated, for example, the luminance at each sub-pixel of the second display area 1002 is obtained through an optical device to calculate the original compensation data required by each sub-pixel, in the calculation process, a [1 × 1] Block compensation scheme can be adopted, the corresponding compensation coefficients of each sub-pixel can be different, the original compensation data correspond to the sub-pixels one by one, the data amount of the original compensation data is equal to the number of the sub-pixels of the second display area 1002, the sub-pixels corresponding to the second display area 1002 can be subjected to more accurate mura compensation, the compensation quality is higher, and the display effect is further improved.
Exemplarily, the second display area 1002 corresponds to a photosensitive component layout area (e.g., a camera area), and metal wiring may not be arranged in the photosensitive component layout area as much as possible, that is, a scanning signal line and a data signal line may not be overlapped with the camera area; the metal wiring is light-tight and can influence the sensing of the photosensitive assembly to light, for example, the photosensitive assembly is a camera, and the metal wiring is light-tight and can influence the quality of images collected by the camera.
Optionally, the compression mode of the first compensation data includes a JPEG format compression mode, and the decompression unit 2004 is configured to decompress the first compensation data by a corresponding decompression algorithm.
Specifically, the JPEG format compression algorithm may use a joint coding method such as predictive coding (DPCM), Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), or entropy coding, for example, to remove redundant image and color data, which belongs to lossy compression, and can compress image data in a small storage space, which may cause damage to image data to some extent. Especially, using too high a compression ratio will degrade the quality of the image restored after the final decompression. The decompression unit 2004 decompresses the first compensation data using a decompression algorithm corresponding to the compression method of the first compensation data, and when the first compensation data uses another compression method, the decompression unit 2004 decompresses the first compensation data using a corresponding decompression algorithm. For example, when the compression mode of the first compensation data is JPEG format compression, the decompression process may include: allocating space for JPEG objects and initializing; specifying a decompressed data source; acquiring file information; setting parameters including image size and color space for decompression; starting decompression; taking out data; decompression is finished; and releasing the resources. The decompression unit 2004 adopts a corresponding decompression algorithm, so that the decompression efficiency is high, the algorithm stability is high, and the third compensation data generated after decompression has less loss or no loss compared with the original compensation data, thereby improving the compensation precision and further improving the display effect.
