Description
実施の形態1.
図1は、実施の形態1の画像表示装置100の構成を概略的に示すブロック図である。この画像表示装置100は、同一表示画面において複数の画像をそれぞれ異なる方向に表示する装置である。すなわち、画像表示装置100は、同一表示画面において、視方向により異なる画像を認識できるように複数の画像を表示する装置である。例えば、画像表示装置100は、方向別画像又は立体画像を表示可能な画像表示装置である。すなわち、画像表示装置100は、例えば、複数の方向の視聴者にそれぞれ異なる画像を提示する方向別画像表示装置や、視差をつけた画像を左右の目それぞれに提示する立体画像表示装置である。
電気的クロストークは、或るサブ画素に対する電気信号(駆動信号)が隣接するサブ画素に電気的に影響を及ぼすことによって発生するものである。例えば、複数のソースライン(信号ライン)および複数のゲートライン(走査ライン)がマトリクス状に配置され、ソースラインとゲートラインとの交点に対応してサブ画素が設けられる液晶表示装置では、電気的クロストークは、隣接サブ画素のソースライン間およびゲートライン間の寄生容量による容量結合の影響により発生するものであると考えられる。この電気的クロストークの影響は、影響を受けたサブ画素の電圧値が該サブ画素の階調値に対応した電圧値からずれ、該サブ画素から視認される発光量が変わることで現れる。
ステップS2-1では、画像表示装置100は、画像データGから、補正対象のサブ画素の階調値と、該サブ画素にクロストークの影響を与えるサブ画素の階調値(すなわち補正に用いるサブ画素の階調値)とを選択する。
ステップS2-2では、画像表示装置100は、ステップS2-1で選択された補正対象のサブ画素の階調値を、ステップS2-1で選択されたクロストークの影響を与えるサブ画素の階調値に基づいて補正する。

方向別画像表示装置では、製造上の問題や、製品の仕様によって提示方向を偏らせる場合がある。このような場合、上述のように補正対象のサブ画素が提示される方向によって用いるLUTを変えることで、その方向に適した補正を行うことができる。
例えば反射による光学的クロストークであれば、補正対象のサブ画素に対してクロストークの影響を与える反対方向へ提示されるサブ画素の位置は、視聴者が画面を見る方向によって逆になる。上述のように補正対象のサブ画素が提示される方向によって階調値がLUTに入力されるサブ画素を変えることで、視聴方向によるクロストークの発生状況の違いを鑑みた補正を行うことができる。
