- Each pixel electrode 34 is formed on the array substrate 31.
- each counter electrode 36 is electrically opposed to the pixel electrode 34 and is formed on a counter substrate (not shown) different from the array substrate 31.
- a predetermined counter voltage is applied to each counter electrode 36 from a counter voltage generation circuit (not shown).
- a liquid crystal layer 35 is held between the pixel electrode 34 and the counter electrode 36 and is sealed with a sealant (not shown) provided around the array substrate 31 and the counter substrate.
- the liquid crystal material used as the liquid crystal layer 35 may be any liquid crystal material, but for example, a ferroelectric liquid crystal, an OCB (Optically Compensated Bend) mode liquid crystal, or the like is suitable.
- the liquid crystal control unit 20 includes a signal line driving circuit 21 to which one end of each signal line 38 is connected and a scanning line driving circuit 22 to which one end of each scanning line 39 is connected.
- the signal line drive circuit 21 controls the voltage applied to the source terminal of each switch element 33 via each signal line 38.
- the scanning line driving circuit 22 controls the voltage applied to the gate terminal of each switch element 33 via each scanning line 39.

- the scanning line driving circuit 22 receives a vertical start signal and a vertical clock signal as control signals from the display ratio control unit.
- the scanning line driving circuit 22 outputs a row selection signal to each scanning line 39 based on the control signal.
- the video display device is based on the light emission intensity assigned to the small areas divided more finely than the illumination area corresponding to each light source, with the light emission intensity of the plurality of light sources included in the backlight. Has been decided. Therefore, according to the video display device according to the present embodiment, the light emission intensity of each light source can be changed stepwise by reflecting the fluctuation of the video signal in units of small areas smaller than the illumination area. Occurrence of unnatural luminance fluctuations in the area can be suppressed.
- FIG. 10A shows the light source of each light source when the light emission intensity of each light source is determined by three methods based on the input video signal of 5 frames (frames # 24, # 32, # 40, # 48, # 56).
- the state of the lighting pattern is shown conceptually.
- the input image is an image of a firework that moves in a generally vertical direction.
- FIG. 10B shows the input image of FIG. 10A and the luminance distribution of each lighting pattern in the cross section of the above-mentioned fireworks.
- the light emission intensity of each light source is based on a video signal included in an area (corresponding to the illumination area described above) obtained by virtually dividing the display area of the liquid crystal panel corresponding to the spatial arrangement of the light sources. It has been decided. As is apparent from FIGS. 10A and 10B, the lighting pattern 1 does not sufficiently follow the movement of the fireworks. Specifically, the luminance distributions of the trajectory cross sections in frames # 24 and # 32 coincide with each other regardless of the position of the fireworks, and the same applies to frames # 48 and # 56. In addition, a sudden luminance fluctuation occurs between the frames # 32 and # 40 and between the frames # 40 and # 48. Therefore, when the input video is displayed by the lighting pattern 1, an unnatural (discontinuous) luminance variation is perceived by the observer.
- the light emission intensity of each light source is determined by applying a low-pass spatial filter process to the light emission intensity of each light source obtained by the same method as in the lighting pattern 1.
- the lighting pattern 2 has a reduced spatial distribution (unevenness) in the luminance distribution in each frame compared to the lighting pattern 1. That is, according to the lighting pattern 2, it can be said that a situation in which a single illumination area in each frame exhibits a very high luminance compared to the surrounding illumination area is less likely to occur than in the lighting pattern 1.
- the fundamental problem in the lighting pattern 1 that the lighting pattern 2 cannot sufficiently follow the movement of the fireworks is not solved (see frames # 24 and # 32 and frames # 48 and # 56, respectively).
- the light emission intensity of each light source is determined based on the light emission intensity determination process in the video display device according to the present embodiment.
- the lighting pattern 3 follows the movement of the fireworks, compared to the lighting patterns 1 and 2.
- the luminance of each illumination area changes smoothly (stepwise) from frame # 24 to # 56.
- the lighting pattern of the frame # 32 is the same as the lighting pattern of the frame # 24, but in the lighting pattern 3, the lighting pattern of the frame # 32 is intermediate between the frames # 24 and # 40. It will be something.
- the lighting pattern of frame # 48 is the same as the lighting pattern of frame # 56, but in lighting pattern 3, the lighting pattern of frame # 48 is intermediate between frames # 40 and # 56. It will be something. In other words, according to the lighting pattern 3, the luminance of each illumination area varies smoothly following the movement of the fireworks, so that it is difficult to give the viewer a sense of discomfort associated with the luminance variation.
- the video display device determines the light emission intensity of each light source by performing a two-step light emission intensity calculation process.
- the emission intensity of each light source can be calculated.
- such a modification is not so preferable from the viewpoint of calculation cost.
- the light emission intensity calculation process at the second stage has a higher calculation cost than the light emission intensity calculation process at the first stage, and the calculation cost further increases as the calculation target increases.
- the first-stage emission intensity calculation process plays a role of compressing the calculation target of the second-stage emission intensity calculation process from the pixel unit to the small area unit. That is, by performing the first-stage emission intensity calculation process, it is possible to reduce the calculation cost required to determine the emission intensity of each light source.
- the emission colors (spectral characteristics) of the plurality of light sources 51 included in the backlight 50 are not mentioned. If the light emission color of each light source 51 is single (for example, pseudo white), the first embodiment can be applied as it is. On the other hand, if the light emission color of each light source 51 is plural (for example, RGB (red, blue, green)), it is desirable to apply the first embodiment by partially correcting as follows.
- the emission intensity determination unit 100 determines the emission intensity for each emission color of each light source 51. For example, if the video signal is in RGB format and the light emission color of each light source 51 is RGB, the light emission intensity determination unit 100 determines the light emission intensity of the red light source based on the R signal value of the video signal, and sets the G signal value. Based on this, the emission intensity of the green light source is determined, and the emission intensity of the blue light source is determined based on the B signal value. In this way, if the constituent color of the video signal matches the emission color of each light source 51, the emission intensity determination unit 100 determines the emission intensity for each emission color of each light source 51 based on the signal value of each color of the video signal. Can be determined.
- the emission intensity determining unit 100 converts the color represented by the video signal into a combination of a plurality of emission colors of each light source 51, and What is necessary is just to determine the light emission intensity
- the video display device is based on the light emission intensity assigned to the small areas divided more finely than the illumination area corresponding to each light source, with the light emission intensity of the plurality of light sources included in the backlight. And determined for each emission color. Therefore, according to the video display device according to the present embodiment, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of unnatural luminance fluctuations in each illumination region even when a light source having a plurality of emission colors is used.
- the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments as they are, and can be embodied by modifying the constituent elements without departing from the scope of the invention in the implementation stage.
- Various inventions can be formed by appropriately combining a plurality of constituent elements disclosed in the above embodiments. Further, for example, a configuration in which some components are deleted from all the components shown in each embodiment is also conceivable.
