附图说明
为了更清楚地说明本公开实施例的技术方案,下面将对实施例的附图作 简单地介绍,显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅涉及本公开的一些实施例,而非对本公开的限制。
图1为采用现有的方式进行数据补偿后电光转换函数曲线和未进行数据补偿的电光转换函数曲线的关系示意图;
图2为本公开实施例提供的高动态对比度显示屏的驱动方法的流程图;
图3为采用本公开实施例提供的方式进行数据补偿后电光转换函数曲线和未进行数据补偿的电光转换函数曲线的关系示意图;
图4为本公开实施例提供的高动态对比度显示屏的驱动装置的示意图;
图5为本公开实施例提供的一种驱动装置的示意图;以及
图6为本公开实施例提供的一种高动态对比度显示屏的示意图。
具体实施方式
为使本公开实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合本公开实施例的附图,对本公开实施例的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。显然,所描述的实施例是本公开的一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于所描述的本公开的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在无需创造性劳动的前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本公开保护的范围。
除非另外定义,本公开使用的技术术语或者科学术语应当为本公开所属领域内具有一般技能的人士所理解的通常意义。本公开中使用的“一个”、“一”或者“该”等类似词语也不表示数量限制,而是表示存在至少一个。“包括”或者“包含”等类似的词语意指出现该词前面的元件或者物件涵盖出现在该词后面列举的元件或者物件及其等同,而不排除其他元件或者物件。“连接”或者“相连”等类似的词语并非限定于物理的或者机械的连接,而是可以包括电性的连接,不管是直接的还是间接的。
下面结合附图,对本公开实施例提供的高动态对比度显示屏的驱动方法及驱动装置的具体实施方式进行详细地说明。
例如,采用直下式发光二极管(LED)背光搭配局部背光动态调节(Local Dimming)技术的背光模组可以大幅度降低背光模组的耗电量、提高显示画面对比度和灰阶数,以及减少残影。
例如,搭配局部背光动态调节(Local Dimming)技术的背光模组是利用 数百个LED组成的背光源代替冷阴极荧光灯管(CCFL)背光灯,组成背光的各LED可根据图像的明暗进行调节,在显示图像中的高亮部分对应的LED可以调节到最大亮度,而同时显示图像中的黑暗部分对应的LED可以相应降低亮度甚至关闭,以达到最佳的对比度。这样,在背光模组中降低暗区亮度就降低了背光的整体功耗。
例如,在背光模组采用局部背光动态调节(Local Dimming)技术进行调整时,为了保持显示原有的亮度相对变化不大,一般会对像素数据进行补偿,可以采用如下公式进行补偿
Figure PCTCN2017072986-appb-000003
其中,BL为标准的背光亮度,BLDB为动态调节后的局部背光亮度,R为原始像素数据,RDB为数据补偿后的像素数据。如图1所示,在采用上述公式进行数据补偿后电光转换函数曲线01与未进行数据补偿的电光转换函数曲线02相比较可以看出,采用数据补偿后的最低亮度较高,因此会对显示的对比度有一定的影响,因此,在应用于对于对比度有着严格要求的高动态对比度显示屏(HDR)时,无法符合HDR的对比度标准。
本公开实施例提供的一种高动态对比度显示屏的驱动方法,如图2所示,包括以下步骤:
S201、获取待显示图像数据;
S202、根据待显示图像数据,确定背光模组中各区域的局部背光亮度;
S203、根据局部背光亮度以及背光模组中最大背光亮度,调整待显示图像数据对应的亮度;
S204、根据调整后的亮度以及确定出各区域的局部背光亮度进行显示。
例如,本公开实施例提供的上述高动态对比度显示屏的驱动方法及驱动装置,在获取(例如接收)待显示图像数据后,根据待显示图像数据(例如显示图像数据对应的亮度),确定背光模组中各区域的局部背光亮度,之后根据局部背光亮度以及背光模组中最大背光亮度,对待显示图像数据的亮度进行调整,以保证在调整后(例如进行数据补偿后)的最低亮度值较低,满足HDR的对比度标准,最后,根据调整后的亮度以及确定出的背光模组中各区域的局部背光亮度进行显示。
例如,本公开实施例提供的上述高动态对比度显示屏的驱动方法中的步 骤S202中根据待显示图像数据,确定背光模组中各区域的局部背光亮度时,例如采用局部背光动态调节(Local Dimming)技术对背光模组中各区域的局部背光亮度进行调整。例如,待显示图像数据中亮度越小的区域对应的所述背光模组中的局部背光亮度越小,这样可以在背光模组中降低暗区亮度,从而降低背光的整体功耗。
例如,本公开实施例提供的上述高动态对比度显示屏的驱动方法中的步骤S203中根据局部背光亮度以及背光模组中最大背光亮度,对待显示图像数据的亮度进行调整,具体可以通过如下方式实现:
首先,根据待显示图像数据确定原始的像素亮度;
之后,根据局部背光亮度以及背光模组中最大背光亮度,对原始的像素亮度进行调整。
例如,在根据局部背光亮度以及背光模组中最大背光亮度,对原始的像素亮度进行调整时,具体可以采用如下公式对原始的像素亮度进行调整:
Figure PCTCN2017072986-appb-000004
其中,Y0为原始的像素亮度,Y为调整后的像素亮度,BLmax为背光模组的最大背光亮度,BLDB为背光模组的局部背光亮度,a为可调整参数。
例如,BLDB为动态调节后背光模组的局部背光亮度。
例如,上述公式中的a的取值范围为1/8至1。
例如,在采用上述公式调整后的像素亮度的电光转换函数曲线03,如图3所示,与未进行数据补偿的电光转换函数曲线02相比较可以看出,具有较低的最低亮度,因此,可以符合HDR的对比度标准。
例如,基于同一发明构思,本公开的实施例还提供了一种高动态对比度显示屏的驱动装置,由于该装置解决问题的原理与前述一种高动态对比度显示屏的驱动方法相似,因此该装置的实施可以参见方法的实施,重复之处不再赘述。
