- the liquid crystal panel has a non-linear change in light transmission and transmission characteristics due to operating temperature and deterioration over time, there is a practical limit to increasing the gradation.
- liquid crystal display devices equipped with a device that monitors the image and brightness of the user have been developed.However, an image sensor / photodetector can be placed behind or around the liquid crystal display device, or a movable sensor can be used. Often the calibration is done manually on the display screen. However, when the amount of light from the backlight is monitored by a photodetector provided inside the liquid crystal display device as in the conventional case, the amount of reflected light on the back side of the liquid crystal changes depending on whether the liquid crystal is in a transmission state or a non-transmission state. However, there is a problem that the monitor does not work properly.

Since there is a polarizing plate 218 having a polarization direction, light cannot enter.

- the backlight control and user image can be performed with higher precision by performing arithmetic processing from multiple signals with polarizing plates with different polarization directions attached to the photodetector image sensor using the property of polarized light transmitted through the liquid crystal panel. Can be captured.
- the stabilization of the pack light according to the present invention enables high-precision calibration. It has extremely high industrial value.
