It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are intended to be illustrative only and are not intended to be limiting. It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present application may be practiced without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely intended to provide a better understanding of the present application by illustrating examples thereof.

Also, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising … …" does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises the element.
It should be understood that the term "and/or" as used herein is merely one type of association that describes an associated object, meaning that three relationships may exist, e.g., a and/or B may mean: a exists alone, A and B exist simultaneously, and B exists alone. In addition, the character "/" herein generally indicates that the former and latter related objects are in an "or" relationship.
Before explaining the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, in order to facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present application, the present application first specifically explains the problems existing in the prior art:
as mentioned above, during the production process of the display panel, due to the material and the process, the uneven brightness of the display screen may occur on some products, i.e. Mura. In order to compensate for the Mura phenomenon caused by the defects in the process, the brightness of the target display area in the display panel can be corrected by a brightness compensation method (such as external optical DeMura compensation), so as to eliminate the Mura phenomenon.
However, the inventors of the present application have found that after performing brightness compensation on a target display area in a display panel by using the current brightness compensation method, the target display area is overcompensated, and the overcompensation is most obvious especially at high gray levels. Overcompensation is understood to mean that the luminance value after luminance compensation exceeds the desired target luminance value. As shown in fig. 1, in the high gray level portion (e.g. 145 to 255 gray levels), the gamma value (curve 1) corresponding to the brightness value before the brightness compensation is maintained at about the target gamma value (e.g. gamma value 2.2), and the gamma value (curve 2) corresponding to the brightness value after the brightness compensation exceeds the target gamma value, i.e. the problem of over-compensation occurs.
Therefore, due to the over-compensation problem, the Mura phenomenon of the display panel after brightness compensation is not improved in the high gray scale, but is increased.
In view of the above research of the inventor, the embodiments of the present application provide a method and an apparatus for compensating brightness of a display panel, and an electronic device, which can reduce or even eliminate the Mura phenomenon of the display panel at high gray levels.
The technical idea of the embodiment of the application is as follows: for the display sub-region subjected to brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve, when the display sub-region is overcompensated in the first gray scale range, the register values corresponding to the binding points in the first gray scale range are readjusted based on the second gamma curve with a smaller gamma value, so that the brightness compensation amount of each gray scale in the first gray scale range is reduced, the brightness value of the display sub-region subjected to brightness compensation of each gray scale in the first gray scale range is further reduced, the overcompensation problem of the display sub-region in the first gray scale range is improved, and the Mura phenomenon of the display panel in the first gray scale range is weakened or even eliminated.
For ease of understanding, the implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to the relationship between the gamma value and the brightness value.
The relational expression between the gamma value and the luminance value is as follows:
Figure BDA0003302578900000071
where γ represents a gamma value, the maximum gray level may include 255 gray levels.
As can be seen from the above expression (1), since the current gray scale is not greater than the maximum gray scale, when the current gray scale is smaller than the maximum gray scale, the ratio of the current gray scale to the maximum gray scale is smaller than 1, and therefore, when the gamma value γ decreases, the value on the left side of the equation increases, and further, the luminance value of the current gray scale on the right side of the equation increases, so that the luminance difference between the luminance value of the current gray scale and the luminance value of the maximum gray scale decreases. For example, taking the 240 gray level and the 255 gray level as an example, the luminance value of the 255 gray level is 500nit, when the gamma value is 2.2, the luminance value of the 240 gray level is 437.57nit, the luminance difference value between the 240 gray level and the 255 gray level is 62.43nit, the 62.43nit is divided into 15 gray levels between the 255 gray level and the 240 gray level, and each gray level is divided into 4.16 nit. Then, the luminance compensation is performed, for example, 4.16 × k is multiplied by the luminance compensation coefficient k, so that the luminance compensation amount is 4.16 × k. For example, when the gamma value is 2.0, the luminance value of the 240 gray level is 442.9nit, the luminance difference between the 240 gray level and the 255 gray level is 57.1nit, the 57.1nit is divided into 15 gray levels between the 255 gray level and the 240 gray level, and each gray level is divided into about 3.8 nit. Then, the luminance compensation is performed, and if the luminance compensation coefficient k is multiplied by 3.8, the luminance compensation amount is 3.8 × k. Obviously, 3.8 × k is less than 4.16 × k. Therefore, by reducing the gamma value gamma, the brightness compensation amount of each gray scale in the first gray scale range can be reduced, and the brightness value of the display sub-region after brightness compensation of each gray scale in the first gray scale range is further reduced, so that the problem of overcompensation of the display sub-region in the first gray scale range is solved.
The following describes a brightness compensation method for a display panel provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, the display panel 20 may include a display area AA including at least one display sub-area AA 1. The display panel 20 may further include a non-display area NA surrounding the display area AA in addition to the display area AA. The display sub-region AA1 may be understood as a local region in the display region AA that needs brightness compensation, and the position and number of the display sub-region AA1 are arbitrary, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.
As shown in fig. 3, the method for compensating brightness of a display panel provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the following steps: after the brightness compensation is performed on the display sub-region based on the first gamma curve, if the brightness values of the plurality of gray scales of the display sub-region in the first gray scale range are greater than the preset brightness threshold value, and the minimum gray scale value of the first gray scale range is greater than or equal to the preset gray scale threshold value, the steps S101 to S103 are performed.
S101, acquiring a plurality of first binding points in a first gray scale range.
S102, determining register values corresponding to the first bindings on the basis of a second gamma curve, wherein the gamma value of the second gamma curve is smaller than that of the first gamma curve.
And S103, performing brightness compensation on the display sub-area according to the register value and a predetermined compensation coefficient.
According to the embodiment of the application, for the display sub-region subjected to brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve, when the display sub-region is subjected to overcompensation in the first gray scale range, the register values corresponding to the first binding points in the first gray scale range are readjusted based on the second gamma curve with a smaller gamma value, so that the brightness compensation amount of each gray scale in the first gray scale range is reduced, the brightness value of the display sub-region subjected to brightness compensation of each gray scale in the first gray scale range is further reduced, the overcompensation problem of the display sub-region in the first gray scale range is improved, and the Mura phenomenon of the display panel in the first gray scale range is weakened or even eliminated.
For ease of understanding, the above steps are described in detail below.
In this embodiment of the present application, the first gamma curve may be a gamma curve with a specific gamma value, and may be flexibly adjusted according to actual display requirements, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application. For example, when the display panel is required to conform to the gamma2.2 curve, the first gamma curve may be the gamma2.2 curve.
The brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve can be understood as two processes, namely, firstly, the gamma correction/debugging is carried out on the display panel based on the first gamma curve to obtain the register value after the gamma correction of each binding point; then, luminance compensation is performed on the basis of the gamma-corrected register value, and a (first) luminance-compensated register value is obtained.
It should be noted that the display panel may include a plurality of color sub-pixels, such as a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel. For each binding/gray level, the register values of the binding/gray level may include register values of a plurality of color sub-pixels, such as may include a register value of a red sub-pixel, a register value of a green sub-pixel, and a register value of a blue sub-pixel. Of course, the display panel may include other color sub-pixels, such as a white sub-pixel, in addition to the red, green, and blue sub-pixels. Accordingly, the register value of each binding point/gray level may also include register values of other color sub-pixels, which is not limited in this embodiment.
The first gray scale range can be understood as a high gray scale range, wherein the minimum gray scale value of the first gray scale range is greater than or equal to a preset gray scale threshold value. The specific size of the first gray scale range and the preset gray scale threshold can be flexibly adjusted according to actual conditions, and the embodiment of the application is not limited to this. For example, when the first gray scale range is 145 to 255 gray scales, the predetermined gray scale threshold may be 145. For another example, when the first gray scale range is 200 to 255 gray scales, the predetermined gray scale threshold may be 200.
The brightness values of the plurality of gray scales of the display sub-region in the first gray scale range are greater than the preset brightness threshold, which can be understood as that the brightness values of the preset number of gray scales of the display sub-region in the first gray scale range are greater than the preset brightness threshold, that is, overcompensation, and the specific sizes of the preset number and the preset brightness threshold can be flexibly adjusted according to actual conditions, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. In some specific examples, each gray scale may correspond to a preset brightness threshold, and a brightness value of a preset number of gray scales greater than the preset brightness threshold may be understood as a brightness value of a preset number of gray scales greater than the corresponding preset brightness threshold. In other specific examples, there may be only one preset brightness threshold, for example, the preset brightness threshold may be a target brightness value corresponding to a maximum gray scale in the first gray scale range, and when a brightness value of a preset number of gray scales is greater than the target brightness value corresponding to the maximum gray scale in the first gray scale range, it may also be said that overcompensation occurs.
S101, acquiring a plurality of first binding points in a first gray scale range.
When performing the brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve, a first number of first binding points are selected for the brightness compensation, and the first number may be any number. Illustratively, for example, when performing the brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve, the gray levels of 0, 1, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 64, 80, 122, 144, 208, 240 and 255 are selected as the first tie points for the brightness compensation. Taking the first gray scale range of 145 to 255 gray scales as an example, the obtained plurality of binding points in the first gray scale range may include 208 gray scales, 240 gray scales and 255 gray scales.
In order to further improve the problem of overcompensation of the display sub-region in the first gray scale range, and reduce or even eliminate the Mura phenomenon of the display panel in the first gray scale range, as shown in fig. 4, in some embodiments, after S101 and before S102, the method may further include:
s101', a plurality of second binding points in the first gray scale range are obtained. The difference in gray scale values between at least one set of adjacent bindings in the second plurality of bindings is greater than the difference in gray scale values between at least one set of adjacent bindings in the first plurality of bindings.
Specifically, for example, a plurality of first binding points in the first gray scale range may be adjusted to obtain a plurality of adjusted second binding points.
Illustratively, the plurality of first binding points before adjustment are, for example, 208 gray levels, 240 gray levels and 255 gray levels, a difference value between the 208 gray levels and the 240 gray levels is 32 gray levels, and a difference value between the 240 gray levels and the 255 gray levels is 15 gray levels. By adjusting the gray level values of a plurality of first binding points, for example, the first binding point is adjusted from 208 gray levels to 192 gray levels, and the second binding point is adjusted from 240 gray levels to 224 gray levels. The difference between the 192 gray level and the 224 gray level is 32 gray levels, and the difference between the 224 gray level and the 255 gray level is 31 gray levels. Thus, the difference between the gray scale values of the second and third adjacent binding points (255 grayscales) is adjusted from 15 grayscales to 31 grayscales, i.e., the difference is increased.
From the perspective of brightness, it is assumed that the brightness value corresponding to 255 gray level is 450nit, the brightness value corresponding to 240 gray level is 400nit, and the brightness value corresponding to 224 gray level is 350 nit. The luminance difference between the 255 th gray level and the 240 th gray level is 50nit, and the 50nit is divided into 15 gray levels between the 255 th gray level and the 240 th gray level, and each gray level is divided into about 3.33 nit. Then, the luminance compensation is performed, and if the luminance compensation coefficient k is multiplied by 3.33, the luminance compensation amount is 3.33 × k. The luminance difference between the 255 th gray level and the 224 th gray level is 100nit, and the 100nit is divided into 31 gray levels between the 255 th gray level and the 224 th gray level, each gray level is divided into about 3.2 nit. Then, the luminance compensation is performed, and if the luminance compensation coefficient k is multiplied by 3.2, the luminance compensation amount is 3.2 × k. Obviously, after the difference of the gray scale values between the adjacent binding points is enlarged, the brightness compensation amount is reduced, and further the brightness value after the brightness compensation is further reduced, so that the problem of overcompensation of the display sub-region in the first gray scale range is further improved, and the Mura phenomenon of the display panel in the first gray scale range is weakened or even eliminated.
S102, determining register values corresponding to the first bindings on the basis of a second gamma curve, wherein the gamma value of the second gamma curve is smaller than that of the first gamma curve.
It should be noted that, when the brightness compensation method for a display panel provided in the embodiment of the present application includes S101' acquiring a plurality of second tie points in the first gray scale range, correspondingly, S102 specifically determines, based on the second gamma curve, register values corresponding to the plurality of second tie points. For convenience of description of the respective steps hereinafter, any one of the first binding and the second binding is not referred to as a third binding. That is, the third binding point in the embodiment of the present application may be understood as the first binding point or the second binding point. S102 will be described in detail below.
In an embodiment of the present application, the second gamma curve is a gamma curve having a gamma value smaller than that of the first gamma curve. For example, when the first gamma curve is a gamma2.2 curve, the second gamma curve may be a gamma2.0 curve or other gamma curve having a gamma value less than 2.2.
S102 may be understood as a process of performing gamma correction on the display panel, i.e., readjusting register values corresponding to respective gray levels of the display panel in the first gray level range. Specifically, as shown in fig. 5, in some embodiments, S102 may specifically include the following steps:
for any ith third binding point in a plurality of third binding points in the first gray scale range, wherein i is a positive integer, executing the following steps:
and S1021, determining the target brightness value of the ith third binding point according to the corresponding relation between the gray scale and the brightness value in the second gamma curve. Specifically, the gamma curve may be regarded as a corresponding relationship curve of gray scales and brightness values, and a brightness value corresponding to the ith third binding point (gray scale) in the second gamma curve may be used as a target brightness value of the ith third binding point.
S1022, an initial register value corresponding to the ith third binding point and a measurement brightness value corresponding to the ith third binding point in the initial register value are obtained.
Specifically, first, a register value of an ith third binding point obtained when gamma correction is performed based on the first gamma curve may be used as an initial register value corresponding to the ith third binding point, or an initial register value corresponding to the ith third binding point may be randomly set. It is easy to understand that the initial register value corresponding to the ith third binding point may include initial register values corresponding to sub-pixels of multiple colors, such as an initial register value R corresponding to a red sub-pixel0Initial register value G corresponding to green sub-pixel0Initial register value B corresponding to blue sub-pixel0. After the initial register value corresponding to the ith third binding point is obtained, the initial register value corresponding to the ith third binding point may be input into the display panel, and then a measurement brightness value of the display panel is obtained by using an optical device such as a color analyzer, and the measurement brightness value is the brightness value of the display panel obtained by measurement.
And S1023, adjusting the initial register value to enable the difference value between the measured brightness value corresponding to the adjusted initial register value and the target brightness value to be within a preset error range.
The preset error range can be flexibly adjusted according to actual conditions, and the preset error range is not limited in the embodiment of the application. S1022 and S1023 may be an iterative process, that is, each time the initial register value is adjusted, a measurement brightness value is obtained, and the difference between the measurement brightness value and the target brightness value is determined to be within the preset error range, and the process is repeated until the difference between the measurement brightness value corresponding to the adjusted initial register value and the target brightness value is within the preset error range.
And S1024, taking the adjusted initial register value as a register value corresponding to the ith third binding point.
Therefore, the register value corresponding to the ith third binding point can be obtained. After the register value corresponding to one third binding point is obtained, the next third binding point may be used as the ith third binding point, and steps S1021 to S1024 may be repeated until the register values corresponding to the plurality of third binding points in the first gray scale range are obtained.
And S103, performing brightness compensation on the display sub-area according to the register value and a predetermined compensation coefficient.
For the ith third binding point, a register value compensated by the ith third binding point can be obtained according to a register value corresponding to the ith third binding point and a predetermined compensation coefficient. The compensation coefficient may be a compensation coefficient obtained when performing brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve, or may be set manually according to actual conditions, which is not limited in the present application.
When the compensation coefficient is obtained by performing brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve, the compensation coefficient does not need to be determined again, and the compensation coefficient is obtained according to the display panel and is more matched with the display panel, so that the calculation amount is reduced, the brightness compensation rate is improved, and meanwhile, a better brightness compensation effect can be achieved.
In some specific embodiments, the compensation coefficient may include a difference between register values of each third binding point before and after the brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve, and the difference is referred to as a second difference for convenience of distinction. As described above, the brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve may include two processes, the first process is to perform gamma correction/debugging on the display panel based on the first gamma curve to obtain the gamma-corrected register values of the first binding points, and the gamma-corrected register values of the other gray scales except the first binding points may be obtained by a linear interpolation algorithm; the second process is to perform brightness compensation on the basis of the gamma-corrected register value to obtain a (first) brightness-compensated register value. Then, the register value of each third binding point before the brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve can be understood as the register value obtained by the first process, i.e., the register value of each third binding point after the gamma correction based on the first gamma curve. The register value of each third binding point after the brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve can be understood as the register value obtained by the second process.
Correspondingly, as shown in fig. 6, S103 may specifically include the following steps:
and S1031, obtaining the register value compensated by each third binding point according to the register value corresponding to each third binding point and the second difference value corresponding to each third binding point.
Specifically, for the ith third binding point, the register value compensated by the ith third binding point may be obtained according to the register value corresponding to the ith third binding point and the second difference value corresponding to the ith third binding point. For example, when the second difference is obtained by subtracting the register value before brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve from the register value after brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve, the sum of the register value corresponding to the ith third binding point and the second difference corresponding to the ith third binding point may be calculated to obtain the register value after brightness compensation of the ith third binding point. For another example, when the second difference is obtained by subtracting the register value after the brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve from the register value before the brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve, the difference between the register value corresponding to the ith third binding point and the second difference corresponding to the ith third binding point may be calculated to obtain the register value after the compensation of the ith third binding point.
And S1032, driving the sub-pixels of the corresponding colors in the display sub-area to emit light according to the register value compensated by each third binding point.
Each third-bind compensated register value may include a plurality of color sub-pixel compensated register values, such as a red sub-pixel compensated register value, a green sub-pixel compensated register value, and a blue sub-pixel compensated register value, at each third-bind. The corresponding relationship between the compensated register values of the sub-pixels of the plurality of colors and the binding points under each third binding point can be stored in the driving chip, and then the driving chip outputs data signals of corresponding voltage values to the sub-pixels of the corresponding colors based on the register values of the sub-pixels of each color during displaying so as to drive the sub-pixels of the corresponding colors in the display sub-area to emit light.
For the other gray scales except the third binding point in the first gray scale range, for example, the register value compensated by the multi-color sub-pixels under each gray scale can be obtained through linear interpolation, and then the corresponding relationship between the register value compensated by the multi-color sub-pixels under each gray scale and the gray scale is stored in the driving chip.
In other specific embodiments, the compensation coefficient may include a ratio (hereinafter, simply referred to as a ratio) between register values before and after the brightness compensation based on the first gamma curve for each third binding point. Correspondingly, as shown in fig. 7, S103 may specifically include the following steps:
and S1031', obtaining the register value compensated by each third binding point according to the register value corresponding to each third binding point and the ratio value corresponding to each third binding point.
Specifically, for the ith third binding point, the register value compensated by the ith third binding point can be obtained according to the register value corresponding to the ith third binding point and the ratio value corresponding to the ith third binding point. For example, the product of the register value corresponding to the ith third binding point and the ratio value corresponding to the ith third binding point may be calculated to obtain the register value compensated by the ith third binding point.
S1032', driving the sub-pixels of the corresponding color in the display sub-area to emit light according to the register value compensated by each third binding point.
The specific process of S1032' is the same as the specific process of step S1032, and is not repeated herein for brevity of description.
In order to improve the overcompensation problem of the display sub-region in the first gray scale range to a greater extent, in some embodiments, the gamma value of the second gamma curve can be flexibly adjusted according to the severity of the overcompensation, in other words, the gamma curve corresponding to the gamma value can be selected as the second gamma curve according to the severity of the overcompensation.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 8, before S102, the method may further include the steps of:
s1021', a first brightness value of the display sub-region under the target gray scale is obtained.
The target gray level can be flexibly selected according to actual conditions, and can be any gray level in the first gray level range, such as 254 gray level. Specifically, in S1011', a first brightness value, e.g., 450nit, of the display sub-region at the target gray scale may be measured and obtained by an optical device, such as a color analyzer.
S1022', a first gamma value corresponding to the first brightness value is obtained according to the first brightness value and the predetermined first corresponding relationship.
Wherein, the first corresponding relationship may be a corresponding relationship between the first brightness value and the first gamma value, and the expression of the first corresponding relationship may include:
Figure BDA0003302578900000151
wherein, the maximum gray scale and the brightness value corresponding to the maximum gray scale are known, and γ 1 represents the first gamma value. For example, through the first correspondence relationship shown in the above expression (2), a first gamma value, such as a gamma value of 2.7, corresponding to the first luminance value can be obtained.
S1023', a target gamma value is determined according to the gamma value of the first gamma curve and the first difference value. Wherein the first difference may be a difference between the first gamma value and a gamma value of the first gamma curve. Taking the first gamma value of 2.7 and the gamma value of the first gamma curve of 2.2 as an example, the first difference is 2.7-2.2 ═ 0.5. In some specific embodiments, determining the target gamma value according to the gamma value of the first gamma curve and the first difference may specifically include:
the method comprises the following steps of firstly, obtaining the product of a first difference value and a preset multiple;
a second step of obtaining a target gamma value according to a difference value between the gamma value of the first gamma curve and the product;
and a third step of selecting a gamma curve of the target gamma value as a second gamma curve.
The preset multiple can be obtained through experiments or historical data and is used for correcting the first difference value, and therefore the gamma value which finally accords with the over-compensation severity degree is obtained. Illustratively, the preset multiple may be, for example, 0.4, 0.5, or other values. Taking the preset multiple of 0.4 as an example, 2.2-0.5 × 0.4 ═ 2.0 can be obtained through the first step and the second step, i.e., the target gamma value can be 2.0.
S1024', a gamma curve of the target gamma value is selected as a second gamma curve.
In some specific embodiments, the gamma value of the second gamma curve may include 2.0.
Fig. 9 schematically shows an effect diagram after brightness compensation according to an embodiment of the application. As shown in fig. 9, in the high gray level (e.g. 145 to 255 gray levels), the gamma value (curve 2) corresponding to the luminance value after the luminance compensation is maintained at about the target gamma value (e.g. gamma value 2.2), i.e. the problem of the high gray level overcompensation is eliminated. In addition, for example, before the brightness compensation is performed based on the embodiment of the present application, the gamma values corresponding to 5 binding points are greater than the target gamma value, and after the brightness compensation is performed by the brightness compensation method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the deviation of the gamma values corresponding to the 5 binding points is reduced, and only the gamma value corresponding to one binding point (for example, 255 gray levels) is greater than the target gamma value, that is, the number of the binding points with the deviation of the gamma value is reduced, which further explains that the problem of the high gray level overcompensation is eliminated.
