As shown in fig. 1A, the display device 100 may include a display panel 102, a backlight module 104 and a control unit 106. The control unit 106 may further include one or more processors 1062, memory 1064, input/output interfaces 1066, a communication interface 1068, and a bus 1070. Wherein the processor 1062, memory 1064, input/output interface 1066, and communication interface 1068 are communicatively coupled to each other within the device via bus 1070.
The processor 1062 may be implemented by a general-purpose CPU (Central Processing Unit), a microprocessor, an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), or one or more Integrated circuits, and is configured to execute related programs to implement the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, the processor 1062 may include other processing modules in the display device 100 for processing data, such as a timing control board (TCON). The timing control board (not shown in fig. 1A) may process an LVDS image data input signal (which may include RGB data signals, a clock signal, and a control signal), convert the processed input signal into an LVDS signal capable of driving the display panel 102, and send the LVDS signal to the LVDS receiving chips of the display panel 102 to drive the display panel 102 based on the LVDS signal. In some embodiments, the timing control board may also provide a driving signal for the backlight module 104 to control the backlight module 104 to light up.
The Memory 1064 may be implemented in the form of a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), a static Memory device, a dynamic Memory device, or the like. The memory 1064 may store an operating system and other application programs, and when the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present specification is implemented by software or firmware, the relevant program codes are stored in the memory 108 and called by the processor 1062 for execution.
The input/output interface 1066 is used for connecting an input/output module to input and output information. For example, the input/output interface 1066 may be electrically coupled to the display panel 102 and the backlight module 104, respectively, to correspondingly output the control command generated by the processor 1062 to the display panel 102 and the backlight module 104, so as to control the display panel 102 to display the display data and control the backlight module 104 to light up. The i/o module may be configured as a component in a device (not shown) or may be external to the device to provide a corresponding function. The input device may include a keyboard, a mouse, a touch screen, a microphone, various sensors, etc., and the output device may include a speaker, a vibrator, an indicator light, etc.

Fig. 1B shows a schematic diagram of an exemplary backlight assembly 104, according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
As shown in fig. 1B, a plurality of light emitting units 1042 may be arranged on the backlight module 104 in an array, and the light emitting units 1042 may be light emitting devices such as LEDs, minileds, and micro LEDs. In some embodiments, the light emitting units 1042 can be driven individually, i.e., each light emitting unit 1042 corresponds to an independent driving signal. In other embodiments, the backlight module 104 may be divided into a plurality of backlight partitions, and each backlight partition includes a plurality of light emitting units 1042. For example, as shown in fig. 1B, the backlight module 104 is divided into 16 backlight partitions by dotted lines. Each backlight partition may be driven individually, that is, the light emitting units 1042 in the same partition may be lighted by the same driving signal and have the same brightness. Such a backlight module with zone control may also be called a local dimming (local dimming) backlight module.
Fig. 1C shows a sectional schematic view of an exemplary backlight assembly 104, according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
As shown in FIG. 1C, the backlight module 104 is divided into 16 backlight partitions 104a to 104u. The plurality of light-emitting units in a single backlight partition are lighted by the same driving signal and have the same brightness.
FIG. 1D illustrates a partition diagram of an exemplary display panel 102, according to an embodiment of the disclosure.
As shown in fig. 1D, based on the partition manner of the backlight module 104, the display area of the display panel 102 can be divided into 16 display partitions 102a to 102u. Each display partition may include a plurality of pixels, and each pixel in a frame of display image may have a corresponding gray scale value, which is expressed in the display data for driving the display panel 102. The display sub-sections 102 a-102 u and the backlight sub-sections 104 a-104 u may be in one-to-one correspondence, i.e., the backlight sub-sections are used to provide the backlight of the display sub-section corresponding thereto. For example, backlight partition 104a is used to provide backlight for display partition 102a, backlight partition 104b is used to provide backlight for display partition 102b, and so on.
In some cases, when driving each backlight partition of the backlight module 104, a driving signal may be provided according to a maximum gray scale value of all pixels of the display partition corresponding to the backlight partition, where the driving signal may be a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) signal, and the PWM signal corresponding to the backlight partition may have a duty ratio related to the number of pixels having the maximum gray scale value.
FIG. 1E is a diagram illustrating a distribution of gray scale values of pixels of an exemplary display partition.
As shown in fig. 1E, assuming that 6 pixels in the middle of the display partition are L255 gray scales, and surrounding pixels are all L0 gray scales, in order to provide the backlight that satisfies the L255 gray scales for the 6 pixels in the middle of the display partition, the PWM signal of the corresponding backlight partition is not zero, but has a voltage corresponding to the maximum brightness in a certain time period within the lighting period of the backlight partition. Thus, when the backlight partition is lit, there are pixels with light transmission L0 gray scale, and there is halo in the display effect after the final display partition and the backlight partition are superimposed, as shown in fig. 1F.
In view of this, the display device 100 provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can solve the halo problem to some extent.
The control unit 106 (e.g., TCON) of the display device 100 may first determine a target display partition in the display panel 102 according to the data to be displayed, where the target display partition may be a display partition that needs to be smoothed by an adaptive convolution kernel.
In some embodiments, the control unit 106 may determine the target display partition in the following manner.
The control unit 106 may first determine the first display section among the plurality of display sections of the display panel 102. For example, taking fig. 1D as an example, one display partition may be determined as the first display partition in order from left to right and from top to bottom.
Next, the control unit 106 may determine a first pixel point and a second pixel point of the plurality of pixel points of the first display partition; acquiring a gray scale value of the first pixel point and a gray scale value of the second pixel point; determining whether the difference value between the gray-scale value of the first pixel point and the gray-scale value of the second pixel point is greater than a gray-scale difference threshold value; and determining the first display subarea as a target display subarea in response to the fact that the difference value between the gray-scale value of the first pixel point and the gray-scale value of the second pixel point is larger than a gray-scale difference threshold value.
For example, taking fig. 1E as an example, one pixel point may be sequentially determined as the first pixel point from left to right and from top to bottom, and then, under the condition that the first pixel point is not changed, another pixel point may be sequentially determined as the second pixel point from left to right and from top to bottom. For example, the leftmost pixel point in the first row of fig. 1E is determined as the first pixel point, the pixel point in the first row of fig. 1E adjacent to the first pixel point is determined as the second pixel point, and then the gray scale difference between the first pixel point and the second pixel point is compared to determine whether the gray scale difference is greater than the gray scale difference threshold. If the gray scale difference between the first pixel point and the second pixel point is smaller than the gray scale difference threshold, the pixel point in the first row of fig. 1E, which is one pixel point away from the first pixel point, is selected as the second pixel point, and the gray scale difference between the first pixel point and the second pixel point is compared again to determine whether the gray scale difference between the first pixel point and the second pixel point is larger than the gray scale difference threshold. And repeating the steps until the gray scale difference between the two pixel points in the display partition is larger than the gray scale difference threshold value, and determining that the display partition is the target display partition.
In some embodiments, the control unit 106 may perform the aforementioned process of determining the target display partition for each display partition of the display panel 102, mark all target display partitions determined in the above manner (the gray level transition between pixels is greater than the gray level threshold), and perform the smoothing process for the marked target display partitions subsequently. In addition, in some embodiments, the coordinates of all the pixel points of the target display partition and the plurality of display partitions adjacent to the target display partition may also be calculated and stored in the memory for subsequent calculation. The number of display sections adjacent to the target display section may be 8 or more. Meanwhile, the more the number of target display partitions to be processed is marked, the more slight the halo phenomenon after processing.
After determining the target display partition, the control unit 106 may perform smoothing processing (for example, performing smoothing processing by using an adaptive convolution kernel) on the gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition, so as to obtain updated gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition.
In some embodiments, the control unit 106 may further determine a display partition (e.g., eight display partitions in the periphery) adjacent to the target display partition, and then perform a smoothing process on the gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition (e.g., the display partition 102f of fig. 1D) and the gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the display partition (e.g., the display partitions 102a, 102b, 102c, 102e, 102g, 102j, 102k, 102m, and 102f of fig. 1D) adjacent to the target display partition by using an adaptive convolution check to obtain updated gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition and updated gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the display partition adjacent to the target display partition.
In some embodiments, the data of the target display region marked as described above may be smoothed, the idea of smoothing being primarily to make the gray level transition smoother. Such as the L255 gray level to L0 gray level, and the L128 gray level can be introduced in the middle. In this embodiment, a convolution kernel algorithm for adaptive adjustment according to a distance (the distance can be calculated by a pixel coordinate) is introduced to smooth each pixel point of the marked target display partition.
In some embodiments, the control unit 106 may determine a target pixel point in the target display partition, where the target pixel point is a pixel point with a largest gray scale value among all pixel points in the target display partition. Then, the control unit 106 may perform smoothing processing on the gray scale values of the plurality of pixels of the target display partition and the gray scale values of the plurality of pixels of the display partition adjacent to the target display partition by using an adaptive convolution kernel (for example, a 9 × 9 convolution kernel) based on the target pixel, so as to obtain updated gray scale values of the plurality of pixels of the target display partition and updated gray scale values of the plurality of pixels of the display partition adjacent to the target display partition.
FIG. 1G is a schematic diagram of a gray scale distribution of pixels.
As shown in fig. 1G, the distance between the target pixel 1022a and the pixel 1022b is d1, the distance between the target pixel 1022a and the pixel 1022c is d2, wherein the gray scale value of the target pixel 1022a is L255, and the gray scale values of the pixel 1022b and the pixel 1022c are L0, if the original driving method is adopted, a severe halo phenomenon occurs.
In this embodiment, the value of the convolution kernel is adaptively adjusted according to the distance between the pixel point and the peak point, the obtained convolution kernel recalculates the gray scale of the corresponding pixel point, so that the L255 gray scale value of the target pixel point 1022a outputs a gray scale value lower than L255 after convolution processing, and the L0 gray scale values of the pixel point 1022b and the pixel point 1022c output a gray scale value higher than L0 after convolution processing. And repeating the steps until the target display subarea and the adjacent display subareas of the target display subarea are reached, so as to redefine the pixel gray-scale values of the target display subarea and the adjacent display subareas of the target display subarea and further weaken the halo phenomenon.
The principle of the adaptive convolution kernel based smoothing algorithm of the present embodiment is as follows.
As shown in fig. 1G, d1 is a distance between the target pixel 1022a and the pixel 1022b, and is obtained by calculating coordinates of the target pixel 1022a and the pixel 1022b, and the target pixel 1022a can be regarded as a peak point.
In some embodiments, the center weight m of the adaptive convolution kernel is calculated using the following formula:
Figure BDA0003384752440000071
x=α×d
the remaining weights q of the adaptive convolution kernel are calculated using the following formula:
Figure BDA0003384752440000072
wherein d is the distance between the pixel point and the target pixel point, x is the adaptive adjustment parameter of the pixel point which is away from the target pixel point by the distance d, n is the size of the adaptive convolution kernel, and alpha is the smoothness parameter, wherein the value of the reference parameter alpha is larger along with the increase of the distance d.
Wherein, a is used as the smoothness parameter and can be defined according to the gray scale difference between the target pixel 1022a and the pixel 1022b, and the larger the gray scale difference is, the larger the α value is. Here, a reference table set in advance may be used, and the control unit 102 may directly look up the table according to the calculated gray-scale difference to obtain the α value. For example, the calculated gray level difference is 50, α is 0.2, the calculated gray level difference is 80, and α is 0.3.
x is used as a self-adaptive adjustment parameter, and the value of x is different along with the difference of the distance d between the target pixel 1022a and the pixel 1022b, so that the self-adaptive convolution kernel center weight m is also different, and the self-adaptive adjustment of the convolution kernel center weight and the distance is further realized. After the m value and the q value are calculated, the gray value actually needed to be output by the target pixel 1022a (updated gray value) is obtained by multiplying the original gray value of the target pixel 1022a by m. After the q value is calculated, the gray value actually required to be output by the pixel 1022b (updated gray value) is obtained by multiplying the original gray value of the pixel 1022b by q.
n is the size of the convolution kernel, for example, one convolution kernel of 3 × 3, the size of which is 3 × 3=9.
FIG. 1H is a schematic diagram of the distribution of updated gray scale values of the corresponding display partition after the partition shown in FIG. 1E is processed by the smoothing algorithm. As shown in FIG. 1H, the transition of the updated gray level values for the display partition is smoother.
After obtaining the updated gray scale values of the pixel points based on the smoothing algorithm, the control unit 106 may drive the target display partition of the display panel based on the updated gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition.
In some embodiments, the control unit 106 may drive the target display partition of the display panel and the display partition adjacent to the target display partition based on the updated gray-scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition and the updated gray-scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the display partition adjacent to the target display partition.
In some embodiments, the control unit 106 may determine a target backlight partition corresponding to the target display partition; determining the brightness value of the target backlight partition according to the updated gray-scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition; and driving the target backlight partition according to the brightness value of the target backlight partition.
In some embodiments, the control unit 106 may determine a pulse width modulation signal of the target backlight partition (e.g., a PWM duty cycle of the target backlight partition) according to the brightness value of the target backlight partition; and driving the target backlight partition based on the pulse width modulation signal. In some embodiments, the PWM duty cycle may be processed with the adaptive convolution kernel as described above.
Therefore, when the same partition PWM is not 0 but the gray scale value transition of the pixel point is large, the pixel gray scales in the partitions are redefined by introducing the adaptive convolution kernel, so that the transition between the pixel gray scales is reduced, the convolution kernel calculates the PWM duty ratio again after smoothing, and finally the display is finished. In some embodiments, the concept of convolution kernel smoothing may also be applied to partition-to-partition processing, and to partition-to-partition processing of PWM output duty cycles.
In order to reduce the problem of halo of the mini LED, the display device 100 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure adaptively adjusts the value of the convolution kernel according to the distance between the pixel gray scale value and the peak point in the partition or between the partitions, and performs smoothing processing on the corresponding pixel data by using the convolution kernel, so that the pixel gray scale is excessively reduced, thereby reducing the halo problem.
The embodiment of the disclosure also provides a control method of the display device, which can solve the problem of halo to a certain extent. Fig. 2 illustrates a flow diagram of an exemplary method 200 provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method 200 may be implemented by the display device 100. As shown in fig. 2, the method 200 may further include the following steps.

In step 204, smoothing is performed on the gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition to obtain updated gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition.
In step 206, the target display partition of the display panel is driven based on the updated gray-scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition.

In some embodiments, driving the target display partition of the display panel based on the updated gray scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display partition comprises: and driving the target display subarea and the display subarea adjacent to the target display subarea of the display panel based on the updated gray-scale values of the pixels of the target display subarea and the updated gray-scale values of the pixels of the display subarea adjacent to the target display subarea.

In some embodiments, smoothing the gray-scale values of the plurality of pixels of the target display partition by using an adaptive convolution kernel to obtain updated gray-scale values of the plurality of pixels of the target display partition includes: determining a target pixel point in the target display partition, wherein the target pixel point is the pixel point with the maximum gray scale value in all the pixel points in the target display partition; based on the target pixel point, adopting self-adaptive convolution to check the gray-scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display subarea and the gray-scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the display subarea adjacent to the target display subarea for smoothing treatment, so as to obtain the updated gray-scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the target display subarea and the updated gray-scale values of the plurality of pixel points of the display subarea adjacent to the target display subarea.

x=α×d
