Description

一种图像显示方法以及显示系统 技术领域
本发明涉及显示器技术领域,尤其涉及一种图像显示方法以及显示系统。
背景技术
目前,在例如液晶显示面板(LCD)或有机发光显示面板(OLED)的图像显示设备中,均是以红色(R)子像素、绿色(G)子像素和蓝色(B)子像素组成一个像素单元,通过控制每个子像素的的灰阶值,混合出所需要显示的色彩来显示彩色图像。随着信息技术的发展,对于显示面板的各种需求也在增加,高透过率、低功耗、成像质量佳也成为人们对显示面板的需求。现有的RGB三原色混光显示方式的透过率以及混合效率都比较低,导致显示面板的功耗大,制约了显示面板的产品优化。基于此,出现了由红色(R)子像素、绿色(G)子像素、蓝色(B)子像素和白色(W)子像素组成一个RGBW四像素显示单元,以改善RGB显示面板的显示质量。
采用RGBW四像素显示的优势为:(1)、子像素的解析度增加1/4;(2)、像素的穿透率增加50%;(3)、RGBW的色彩比RGB多11/16。目前信号的传输接口一般都是RGB三像素的传输接口,若将RGB三像素的数据信号直接应用于RGBW四像素的显示面板中,会导致图像失真,因此需要将RGB三像素的数据信号的转换为RGBW四像素的数据信号,再输入到显示面板对应的子像素中。
目前,将RGB三像素的数据信号的转换为RGBW四像素的数据信号主要采用以下方法:
首先,获取RGB三像素数据信号对应的灰阶值R、G、B;然后按照以下公式(1)和公式(2)计算出RGBW四像素的数据信号对应的灰阶值R′、G′、B′和W′。
Figure PCTCN2015083612-appb-000001
W′=min(R,G,B)--------------------------(2)
上述公式(1)和公式(2)中,X分别取灰阶值R、G或B,min(R,G,B)是灰阶值R、G和B中的最小值,max(R,G,B)是灰阶值R、G和B中的最大值。
如上的转换方法中,直接采用原始灰阶值R、G、B经过一步计算得到新的灰阶值R′、G′、B′和W′,新的灰阶值R′、G′、B′和W′无法很好地维持原始灰阶值R、G、B的色度和饱和度。

五、亮度反转单元50将第二红色亮度值LR′、第二绿色亮度值LG′和第二蓝色亮度值LB′,转换为对应的第二红色灰阶值R′、第二绿色灰阶值G′和第二蓝色灰阶值B′,相应地提供给显示面板10中的红色子像素101、绿色子像素102和蓝色子像素。其中,灰阶值与亮度值之间的转换通过gamma曲线获取,gamma的取值优选为2.2。在另外的一些实施例中,灰阶值与亮度值之间的转换也可以是通过显示查找表(Look-Up-Table,LUT)获取。
六、显示面板10接收到第二红色亮度值LR′、第二绿色亮度值LG′、第二蓝色亮度值LB′以及白色灰阶值W′后显示想应的图像。
综上所述,本发明提供的图像显示方法以及显示系统,在将RGB三像素的数据信号的转换为RGBW四像素的数据信号的过程中,首先将灰阶值转换为对应的亮度值,通过亮度值计算补偿后得到对应于四像素数据信号的亮度值,然后再将四像素数据信号的亮度值转换为灰阶值。通过采用亮度值作为灰阶转换的中间值,使得转换后的灰阶值R′、G′、B′和W′可以很好地维持原始灰阶值R、 G、B的色度和饱和度。
