Description
本案係有關一種電子裝置及其亮度調整方法。This case is related to an electronic device and its brightness adjustment method.
現有高動態範圍成像(HDR)顯示器為強調對比度,係採用區域調光(local dimming)技術來增加對比,背光模組會依據需要顯示區域而亮燈。雖然區域調光可以增加對比,但是對於同一顯示位置,其亮度會隨著顯示區域變大、亮燈區變多而改變,使顯示器之亮度隨顯示區域變大而增加,造成顯示器在顯示畫面時會有亮度不一致的問題產生,易導致使用者的不適。In order to emphasize contrast, the existing high dynamic range imaging (HDR) display adopts local dimming technology to increase the contrast. The backlight module will light up according to the required display area. Although regional dimming can increase the contrast, for the same display position, its brightness will change as the display area becomes larger and the light area becomes more bright, so that the brightness of the display increases as the display area becomes larger, causing the display to display pictures The problem of inconsistent brightness may occur, which may easily cause discomfort to the user.

本案另外提供一種電子裝置之亮度調整方法,用以調整一顯示面板的亮度。此亮度調整方法包含:接收一影像資料。根據影像資料計算影像資料於顯示面板佔用的一顯示面積。根據顯示面積及一面積電流關係式,調整顯示面板的一背光電流值,以調整顯示面板的亮度。The present application also provides a method for adjusting the brightness of an electronic device to adjust the brightness of a display panel. The brightness adjustment method includes: receiving an image data. According to the image data, a display area occupied by the image data on the display panel is calculated. According to the display area and an area current relationship formula, a backlight current value of the display panel is adjusted to adjust the brightness of the display panel.
綜上所述,本案可根據影像資料判斷顯示面積並根據不同顯示面積來調整背光電流值,以動態調整顯示面板的亮度,讓顯示面板在顯示不同面積畫面時的亮度一致。In summary, in this case, the display area can be judged according to the image data and the backlight current value can be adjusted according to different display areas to dynamically adjust the brightness of the display panel so that the display panel has the same brightness when displaying images of different areas.
請參閱圖1所示,一電子裝置10至少包含一顯示面板12以及一處理器14,且處理器14電性連接顯示面板12,使處理器14可以根據接收到的影像資料進行運算處理,以據此對應調整顯示面板12的亮度。在一實施例中,處理器14係為一影像處理器。Please refer to FIG. 1, an
在一實施例中,電子裝置10係可為LED顯示器、筆記型電腦、平板電腦、行動電話等,但本案不以此為限。In an embodiment, the
請同時參閱圖1及圖2所示,在此電子裝置10中,係透過處理器14進行整個亮度調整方法,此亮度調整方法包含:如步驟S10所示,處理器14接收一影像資料。接著如步驟S12所示,處理器14根據此影像資料計算該影像資料會於顯示面板12佔用的顯示面積,以根據不同的影像資料計算各自於顯示面板12佔用的顯示面積。如步驟S14所示,處理器14根據顯示面積以及一面積電流關係式,對應調整顯示面板12的一背光電流值,將背光電流值調整為r*I0
,其中I0
為原始背光電流值,且調整參數r≦1,以藉由調整背光電流值來改變顯示面板12的亮度。具體而言,由於顯示面板12之亮度會隨著顯示面積變大而增加,且顯示面板12的亮度會與背光電流值成正比關係,所以處理器14可以根據顯示面積選擇對應之調整參數r,再根據面積電流關係式(r*I0
)計算出目前的背光電流值。亦即,當要顯示不同影像資料時,顯示面板12可以依照不同影像資料的顯示面積動態調整背光電流值,以維持同一位置的亮度一致。Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 at the same time. In this
在一實施例中,請同時參閱圖1至圖3所示,在步驟S14之根據顯示範圍及面積電流關係式,調整顯示面板12的背光電流值之步驟中更可進一步包含步驟S141及步驟S142。如步驟S141所示,處理器14根據顯示面積及一面積電流關係式,計算出背光電流值;然後如步驟S142所示,處理器14根據背光電流值設定顯示面板12,以對應調整顯示面板12的亮度。In one embodiment, please refer to FIGS. 1 to 3 at the same time. In step S14, the step of adjusting the backlight current value of the
詳言之,如圖1所示,當處理器14計算出來的顯示面積由小變大時,由於顯示面積變大了,為避免顯示面板12之亮度也跟著變大,處理器14會根據顯示面積以及面積電流關係式,對應調低顯示面板12的背光電流值(r值變小),以藉由降低背光電流值來調低顯示面板12的亮度,使其目前整體亮度與前一顯示畫面之亮度可以保持一致。反之,當處理器14計算出來的顯示面積由大變小時,由於顯示面積變小了,為避免顯示面板12之亮度也跟著變小,處理器14會根據顯示面積以及面積電流關係式,對應調高顯示面板12的背光電流值(r值變大,最高之背光電流值即為原始背光電流值),以藉由較高的背光電流值來調高顯示面板12的亮度,使其目前整體亮度與前一顯示畫面之亮度可以保持一致。In detail, as shown in FIG. 1, when the display area calculated by the
在一實施例中,顯示面板12內更包含一背光模組121,使得處理器14可以根據背光電流值調整背光模組121的亮度。由於背光模組121有最小點亮區的限制,例如僅能區分為1000區點亮,但是顯示面板12之解析度遠高於2000區,所以會出現顯示面積與背光模組121之點亮面積不完全相同的情況,因此,在進行顯示面板12的亮度調整時更可以進一步考慮點亮面積。請同時參閱圖1及圖4所示,如步驟S20所示,處理器14接收一影像資料。如步驟S22所示,處理器14根據此影像資料計算影像資料於顯示面板12佔用的一顯示面積。續如步驟S24所示,處理器14更可根據顯示面積計算出對應顯示面積之背光模組121的點亮面積。如步驟S26所示,處理器14根據顯示面積對應之點亮面積以及面積電流關係式,對應調整顯示面板12之背光模組121的背光電流值,將背光電流值調整為r*I0
,且調整參數r≦1,其中I0
為原始背光電流值,以根據調整後之背光電流值來改變背光模組121的亮度,使不同顯示面積(點亮面積)下同一位置的亮度接近一致。In one embodiment, the
在一實施中,請同時參閱圖1、圖4及圖5所示,在步驟S26之根據顯示面積對應之點亮面積以及面積電流關係式,調整顯示面板12的背光電流值之步驟中更可進一步包含步驟S261及步驟S262。如步驟S261所示,處理器14會根據顯示面積對應之點亮面積及一面積電流關係式,計算出背光電流值;然後如步驟S262所示,處理器14根據背光電流值設定顯示面板12內之背光模組121,藉由調整後的背光電流值點亮背光模組121,以對應調整顯示面板12的亮度。In an implementation, please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 4, and FIG. 5 at the same time. In step S26, according to the light-emitting area corresponding to the display area and the area current relationship formula, the step of adjusting the backlight current value of the
詳言之,如圖1所示,當顯示面積由小變大時,由於顯示面積變大,使得對應之點亮面積亦變大,為避免顯示面板12之亮度也跟著變大,處理器14會根據點亮面積以及面積電流關係式,對應調低顯示面板12的背光電流值(r值變小),以藉由降低背光電流值來調低顯示面板12的亮度,使其目前整體亮度與前一顯示畫面之亮度可以保持一致。反之,當顯示面積由大變小時,由於顯示面積變小,使得對應之點亮面積亦變小,為避免顯示面板12之亮度也跟著變小,處理器14會根據點亮面積以及面積電流關係式,對應調高顯示面板12的背光電流值(r值變大,最高之背光電流值即為原始背光電流值),以藉由較高的背光電流值來調高顯示面板12的亮度,使其目前整體亮度與前一顯示畫面之亮度可以保持一致。In detail, as shown in FIG. 1, when the display area is changed from small to large, the corresponding lit area also becomes larger because the display area becomes larger. In order to prevent the brightness of the
在一實施例中,背光模組121更包含複數發光二極體(圖中未示),則背光模組121之點亮面積係對應這些發光二極體中之點亮數量。點亮面積除了與發光二極體的點亮數量相關之外,亦可採用區域調光(local dimming)區數來決定點亮面積。In one embodiment, the
在一實施例中,請同時參閱圖1、圖2及圖4所示,如步驟S14及步驟S26所示之調整顯示面板12的背光電流值的方式有二種,一種是透過處理器14直接改變電流值來調整背光電流值,例如將背光電流值由10安培直接降低為8安培。另一種調整方式則是處理器14透過改變脈波寬度調變(PWM)設定的方式來調整背光電流值,例如從原本是在一特定時間區間的每個時間點都會輸出10安培的背光電流值調整為在特定時間區間內的一半的時間點才會輸出10安培的背光電流值。In one embodiment, referring to FIGS. 1, 2 and 4 at the same time, there are two ways to adjust the backlight current value of the
在一實施例中,上述之面積電流關係式係為預先建立。請參閱圖1所示,在產品開發階段,處理器14先設定一固定之原始背光電流值I0
,如圖6A所示,於顯示面板12上的同一點量測不同顯示面積之亮度,可得到不同顯示面積對應亮度關係曲線,如圖6B所示。一般而言,顯示面板12之亮度會隨顯示面積變大而增加,並且,由於顯示面板12之亮度會與點亮背光模組121之背光電流值成正比關係,因此可以內建幾組對應不同顯示面積之背光電流值,再用線性內插方法計算出其他顯示面積對應之背光電流值,各顯示面積對應背光電流值為多段且各段間可具有線性關係,如圖7A所示,亦即此關係曲線圖係具有N段斜率變化的曲線(N≧2),在此係以3段斜率變化為例。根據前述內插結果描繪出的曲線,定義出該面積電流關係式,以根據此面積電流關係式,調整各顯示面積對應之背光電流值為r*I0
,使相同顏色畫面在不同顯示面積下同一位置的亮度一致,如圖7B所示。In one embodiment, the above-mentioned area current relationship is established in advance. Please refer to Fig. 1. In the product development stage, the
綜上所述,本案可根據影像資料判斷顯示面積並根據不同顯示面積來調整背光電流值,以動態調整顯示面板的亮度,讓顯示面板在顯示不同面積畫面時的亮度一致,以避免顯示畫面亮度不一致而導致使用者觀看不適的問題。In summary, in this case, the display area can be judged based on the image data and the backlight current value can be adjusted according to different display areas to dynamically adjust the brightness of the display panel, so that the brightness of the display panel is consistent when displaying images of different areas, so as to avoid the brightness of the display screen. The inconsistency leads to the problem of discomfort for users to watch.
