Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for processing video pictures for display on a display device having at least a first kind of luminous elements with a first time response and a second kind of luminous elements with a second time response being slower than the first time response by driving a luminous element of the first kind for one frame with a predetermined energy. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a corresponding device for processing video pictures.
  • Figure 1 shows the simulation of such a phosphor lag effect on a natural scene with a down shift.
  • a green trail can be seen at the top edge of the trousers of the horseman.
  • the three phosphors have not the same properties because of the chemical differences of the phosphors.
  • life duration and the brightness are privileged at the expense of behaviour homogeneity.
  • the green phosphor G is the slowest, the blue one B is the fastest and the red one R is mostly in-between.
  • a yellow-green trail (right-hand side of the white block of the "displayed picture” of Fig. 2), and in front a blue area (left-hand side of the white block of the "displayed picture” of Fig. 2), as can be seen in Figure 2.
  • One known solution is to compensate the colored trail while modifying the blue component in the temporal domain in order to reduce the length of the trail.
  • One other solution is to add a complementary trail on the color trail in order to discolor it.
  • this object is solved by a method for processing video pictures for display on a display device having at least a first kind of luminous elements with a first time response and a second kind of luminous elements with a second time response being slower than the first time response by driving a luminous element of said first kind for one frame with a predetermined energy, and driving said luminous element of said first kind in one frame period with a first part of said predetermined energy and in a following frame period with a second part of said predetermined energy.
  • a device for processing video pictures for display on a display device having at least a first kind of luminous elements with a first time response and a second kind of luminous elements with a second time response being slower than the first time response and driving means for driving a luminous element of said first kind for one frame with a predetermined energy, wherein said driving means enables driving said luminous element of said first kind in one frame period with a first part of said predetermined energy and in a following period with a second part of said predetermined energy.
  • the luminous element of the first kind e. g.
  • blue element may be driven in the one frame period and in the following frame periods with such amounts of energy that the temporal distribution of emitted energy of the luminous element of the first kind corresponds to the time response of the luminous element of the second kind (e. g. red or green element).
  • the blue component Since the phosphor lag is due to the slowness of the green and red phosphors and since it is not possible to make these phosphors faster, the blue component has to be made slower.
  • the phosphor lag artifact can be interpreted in term of energy: a part of the energy of the green and the red components is not transmitted during the present frame but during the next following frames.
  • the phosphor lag problem mainly appears on strong edges of objects in motion, especially on bright to dark transition or the opposite, as described above.
  • the result is a kind of yellowish trail behind each bright to dark transition and a blue area in front of it. This is a result of the difference in the time responses of the phosphors.
  • the idea of this invention is to make this artifact less disturbing for a customer by suppressing the unnatural color of the trail.
  • the green phosphor G the slowest
  • the red R and the blue one B have to be made slower as depicted in Fig. 3.
  • the phosphor lag can be interpreted in term of energy: a part of the energy of the green and the red components is not transmitted during the present frame but during the next frames.
  • is superior to ⁇ since the green phosphor lags more than the red one.
  • the idea is to do the same for the blue component. So only 100- ⁇ percent of the blue component of the actual frame roughly will be transmitted during the actual frame (roughly 100- ⁇ + ⁇ percent of the red component can also be transmitted in order to discolor completely the trail).
  • ⁇ percent of the blue component of the actual frame will be transmitted during the next frame ( ⁇ - ⁇ percent of the red component of the actual frame can also be transmitted in order to discolor completely the trail, as said previously).
  • one or two monochrome pictures (depending whether red is lagged or not), blue_lag and red_lag for example, have to be used to store the lag picture ( ⁇ percent of the blue component of the last frame n-1 and ⁇ - ⁇ percent of the red component of the last frame n-1).
  • the blue lag picture, blue_lag (respectively the red lag picture, red_lag) obtained from the previous frame n-1 is added to 100- ⁇ (respectively 100- ⁇ + ⁇ ) percent of the original blue (respectively red) picture.
  • the resulting picture is the one that will be displayed on the plasma display.
  • ⁇ (respectively ⁇ - ⁇ ) of the original blue (respectively red) picture is stored in the lag picture, blue_lag (respectively red_lag).
  • the white box shifting on a black background by five pixels (compare Fig. 6) by frame as previously mentioned, shall be taken as example.
  • the white pixels of the picture have the same value in the original video signal, but in order to have also a same video level on the screen (to obtain a perfect white), the next values have to be sent to the panels: 255*(1-( ⁇ - ⁇ )/100) for red 255 for green 255*(1- ⁇ /100) for blue
  • the value of the formal white pixels is: 255*( ⁇ - ⁇ )/100 for red 0 for green 255* ⁇ /100 for blue
  • Fig. 6 The behaviour of the human eye is explainable with Fig. 6.
  • the problem is that the eye does not see directly the video level, but it follows the motion and integrates the light along the integration lines of Fig. 6 through the subfields SF of the frames. Therefore, in this case, the eye perceives a lack of luminance, and so the eye sees the trail due to phosphor lag, as a blue area at the transition of the bright and the dark part of the frame.
  • Figure 8 illustrates the implementation of such an algorithm in the case of a white square moving on a black background.
  • the displayed picture without compensation shows a colored trail, whereas the displayed picture with compensation shows a grey trail.
  • the phosphor trail located behind and in front of the moving object has not change in terms of length but its unnatural colored aspect has disappeared, i. e. the trail has been discolored. With such a processing, the moving object looks like more natural for the customer's eye.
  • Subfield shifting is mostly used to compensate the dynamic false contour effect and also to enhance the sharpness. So if subfield shifting was already used, just the video processing has to be added.
  • the red, green and blue signals R, G, B are input to a frame memory 1 as well as to a motion estimator 2.
  • the motion estimator 2 also receives the output signal of the frame memory 1.
  • the input signals R, G, B are used for subfield coding 3. For this, they are subjected to a gamma function 4 and a following inventive phosphor lag compensation 5.
  • a frame memory 6 is connected to the phosphor lag compensation unit 5 in order to provide the respective lag pictures.
  • the output of the phosphor lag compensation unit 5 is input to the subfield coding unit 3.
  • a subfield shifting unit 7 forms an output signal from the signals obtained from the motion estimator 2 and the subfield coding unit 3.
  • the present invention is applicable to all matrix displays based on sources presenting different time responses for the three colors and using a similar way of gray level rendition (pulse width modulation).
  • PDP pulse width modulation
