Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
As shown in fig. 1, a sub-pixel rendering method is provided, and this embodiment is exemplified by applying the method to a display device, and it is understood that the method may also be applied to a terminal, and may also be applied to a system including the terminal and the display device, and is implemented by interaction between the terminal and the display device. In this embodiment, the method includes the steps of:
step S202, dividing the input image into at least two images to be output.
At least two images to be output correspond to each pixel unit of the repeating unit of the display device one by one. The display device comprises a plurality of repeating units distributed in an array, wherein each repeating unit comprises a blue sub-pixel, a red sub-pixel and a green sub-pixel, at least one of the blue sub-pixel, the red sub-pixel and the green sub-pixel is multiplexed to form at least two pixel units, and each pixel unit comprises one blue sub-pixel, one red sub-pixel and one green sub-pixel.
Specifically, the corresponding relationship between the pixels in the input image and the pixel units in the display device is obtained, and each pixel is allocated to the corresponding pixel unit according to the corresponding relationship, and then the pixels corresponding to each pixel unit multiplexing the same sub-pixel are combined into different images to be output.
And step S204, controlling the display equipment to sequentially display each image to be output.
When each image to be output is displayed, each sub-pixel in the pixel unit corresponding to the displayed image to be output displays the image, and each sub-pixel outside the pixel unit corresponding to the displayed image to be output does not display the image.
Specifically, according to the distribution position of the pixel units in the display device, corresponding pixels are displayed in the order from top to bottom and from left to right, and an image to be output is presented.
In the subpixel rendering method, an input image is divided into at least two images to be output, the at least two images to be output correspond to each pixel unit of a repeating unit of a display device one by one, the display device comprises a plurality of repeating units distributed in an array, each repeating unit comprises a blue subpixel, a red subpixel and a green subpixel, at least one of the blue subpixel, the red subpixel and the green subpixel is multiplexed to form at least two pixel units, each pixel unit comprises a blue subpixel, a red subpixel and a green subpixel, then the display device is controlled to display the images to be output in sequence, when each image to be output is displayed, and each sub-pixel in the pixel unit corresponding to the displayed image to be output displays the image, and each sub-pixel outside the pixel unit corresponding to the displayed image to be output does not display the image, so that the time-sharing multiplexing of partial sub-pixels is realized. And at least two images to be output, which are divided from the input image, correspond to each pixel unit of the repeating unit of the display device one by one, so that when each image to be output is displayed, only each sub-pixel in the pixel unit corresponding to the image needs to be controlled to display the image, each sub-pixel outside the pixel unit corresponding to the image does not display the image, the sub-pixel for displaying the image and the sub-pixel for not displaying the image do not need to be selected, the control of the sub-pixels is simplified, and the complicated display driving control is avoided.
In one embodiment, the display frequency of the image to be output is equal to the display frequency of the input image multiplied by the number of pixel cells in the repeating unit.
For example, the display frequency of the input image is 60fps, and the number of pixel units in the repeating unit is two, the display frequency of the image to be output is 120 fps.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the human eye sensing positions of the respective pixel units of the display device are uniformly distributed (the human eye sensing positions of the pixel units are indicated by black dots in fig. 2 and 3).
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the repeating unit includes a first column of sub-pixels, a second column of sub-pixels, and a third column of sub-pixels arranged at intervals in a first direction, which is a row direction or a column direction of the array. The second column of sub-pixels comprises one blue sub-pixel and at least one red sub-pixel which are arranged at intervals in a second direction, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. The first column of sub-pixels and the third column of sub-pixels each include a green sub-pixel in one-to-one correspondence with at least one red sub-pixel of the same repeating unit, and the green sub-pixel, the corresponding red sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel of the same repeating unit form a pixel unit (in fig. 2 and 3, a circle with a G represents the green sub-pixel, a circle with a R represents the red sub-pixel, and a circle with a B represents the blue sub-pixel).
The human eyes sense the green light most sensitively, the centers of the human eye sensing positions of the pixel units are closest to the green sub-pixels, and the human eye sensing positions of the pixel units of the display device can be uniformly distributed by the green sub-pixels being located at the two sides of the whole body of the blue sub-pixels and the red sub-pixels, so that the imaging of the display device is uniform, and the images with the conditions of 'color edge', uneven color, fuzzy texture and the like are prevented from being presented.
In one implementation, as shown in FIG. 2, the second column of subpixels each include a blue subpixel and a red subpixel, and the first and third columns of subpixels each include a green subpixel. In the same repeating unit, the central connecting line of the blue sub-pixel and the red sub-pixel is coincident with the symmetry axis of the green sub-pixel in the first column of sub-pixels and the third column of sub-pixels.
By forming the 2G1R 1B-RB-common pixel structure in the above manner, each pixel structure can form two pixel units. The mode can also rotate 90 degrees to the vertical direction, but only can support the expansion of the visual resolution in a single direction, and is characterized by simple pixel structure.
Specifically, I3+2 × I1 ═ 2 × I4+4 × I2. Wherein I1 is the shortest distance of two sub-pixels in the same repeating unit in the first direction, I2 is the shortest distance of two sub-pixels in the same repeating unit in the second direction, I3 is the shortest distance of two sub-pixels in different repeating units in the first direction, and I4 is the shortest distance of two sub-pixels in different repeating units in the second direction.
With the above definition, human eye perception positions of the respective pixel units of the display device are uniformly distributed.
Exemplarily, the step S202 includes: taking the pixel values of the odd lines in the input image as the pixel values of the odd lines in the image to be output, and taking 0 as the pixel values of the even lines in the image to be output to obtain a first image to be output; and taking the pixel values of the even lines in the input image as the pixel values of the even lines in the image to be output, and taking 0 as the pixel values of the odd lines in the image to be output to obtain a second image to be output.
Exemplarily, the step S202 includes: taking the pixel value of the odd column in the input image as the pixel value of the odd column in the image to be output, and taking 0 as the pixel value of the even column in the image to be output to obtain a first image to be output; and taking the pixel value of the even column in the input image as the pixel value of the even column in the image to be output, and taking 0 as the pixel value of the odd column in the image to be output to obtain a second image to be output.
In the two implementation modes, the other pixel units are controlled not to display by complementing 0, so that the display device only displays the image to be output, and the sub-pixels multiplexed among the pixel units can realize time-sharing multiplexing.
In another implementation, as shown in fig. 3, the second column of sub-pixels includes one blue sub-pixel and two red sub-pixels alternately arranged in the second direction, and the first column of sub-pixels and the third column of sub-pixels each include two green sub-pixels arranged at intervals in the second direction; in the same repeating unit, the central connecting line of each red sub-pixel and each blue sub-pixel coincides with the symmetry axis of the corresponding green sub-pixel in the first column of sub-pixels and the third column of sub-pixels.
By forming the 4G2R1B pixel structure in the above manner, each pixel structure can form four pixel units, and the visual resolution can be expanded in both the horizontal (X) and vertical (Y) directions.
Specifically, (I3+2 × I1)/I1 ═ (I4+4 × I2)/(2 × I2). Wherein I1 is the shortest distance of two sub-pixels in the same repeating unit in the first direction, I2 is the shortest distance of two sub-pixels in the same repeating unit in the second direction, I3 is the shortest distance of two sub-pixels in different repeating units in the first direction, and I4 is the shortest distance of two sub-pixels in different repeating units in the second direction.
With the above definition, human eye perception positions of the respective pixel units of the display device are uniformly distributed.
Exemplarily, the step S202 includes: taking the pixel value of the odd-numbered row and the odd-numbered column in the input image as the pixel value of the odd-numbered row and the odd-numbered column in the image to be output, and taking 0 as the pixel value of the even-numbered row and the even-numbered row in the image to be output to obtain a first image to be output; taking the pixel values of the odd-numbered rows and the even-numbered columns in the input image as the pixel values of the odd-numbered rows and the even-numbered columns in the image to be output, and taking 0 as the pixel values of the odd-numbered rows and the even-numbered rows in the image to be output to obtain a second image to be output; taking the pixel values of odd columns and even rows in the input image as the pixel values of odd columns and even rows in the image to be output, and taking 0 as the pixel values of odd columns and even rows in the image to be output to obtain a third image to be output; and taking the pixel values of the even rows and the even columns in the input image as the pixel values of the even rows and the even columns in the image to be output, and taking 0 as the pixel values of the odd rows and the even rows and the odd columns in the image to be output to obtain a fourth image to be output.
And controlling other pixel units not to display by complementing 0, so that the display device only displays the image to be output, and the sub-pixels multiplexed among the pixel units can realize time-sharing multiplexing.
Taking 7680 × 4320@60fps as a video source input, the display device is required to support 3840 × 4320@120fps, and taking the display of a 2G1R1B pixel structure as an example, each pixel structure is composed of two G data, one R data and one B data, the data structure is in the form of GRBG, and each pixel structure controls the display of 4 lamp beads.
Firstly, an RGB image of each frame 7680X 4320 of a video is split into two frames 3840X 4320 of RGB images, the split rule is that all odd columns are merged into a first RGB image, all even columns are merged into a second RGB image, and the split converts the resolution from 7680X 4320 to 3840X 4320. Then the GRBG data required by each pixel structure of the display device is converted, the conversion rule is that G is adjusted to the head and is supplemented with 0 at the tail for the first RGB image, and G is adjusted to the tail for the second RGB image which is supplemented with 0 at the head. And finally, transmitting the converted GRBG images of the first frame and the second frame to a display control module, wherein the display control module controls the display device to display the first frame and then the second frame, and the display control converts the frame rate from 60fps to 120 fps.
It should be understood that, although the steps in the flowcharts related to the embodiments as described above are sequentially displayed as indicated by arrows, the steps are not necessarily performed sequentially as indicated by the arrows. The steps are not performed in the exact order shown and described, and may be performed in other orders, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Moreover, at least a part of the steps in the flowcharts related to the embodiments described above may include multiple steps or multiple stages, which are not necessarily performed at the same time, but may be performed at different times, and the execution order of the steps or stages is not necessarily sequential, but may be rotated or alternated with other steps or at least a part of the steps or stages in other steps.
