An image processing unit includes: a gain calculating section obtaining, based on first luminance information for each pixel, a first gain, in which the first gain is configured to increase with an increase in pixel luminance value in a range where the pixel luminance value is equal to or larger than a predetermined luminance value, and in which the pixel luminance value is derived from the first luminance information; and a determination section determining, based on the first luminance information and the first gain, second luminance information for each of the pixels.

Display unit, image processing unit, and display method for improving image quality

An image display apparatus includes: an image display section in which a first sub-pixel for displaying a first primary color, a second sub-pixel for displaying a second primary color, a third sub-pixel for displaying a third primary color, and a fourth sub-pixel for displaying a fourth color are arranged in a 2D matrix; and a signal generation section to generate a signal for driving the image display section based on a first input image signal for displaying the first primary color, a second input image signal for displaying the second primary color, and a third input image signal for displaying the third primary color, that are supplied in correspondence with pixels of an image to be displayed, the signal generation section carries out processing of decreasing chroma and generates signals for driving the first sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel, the third sub-pixel, and the fourth sub-pixel based on those signals.

Signal generation apparatus, signal generation program, signal generation method, and image display apparatus

A picture signal processing circuit includes a gamma correction section configured to perform gamma correction on a picture signal; and a gamma modification section configured to provide an offset component corresponding to one or both of a refresh rate and a light emission duty, to the picture signal gamma-corrected by the gamma correction section.

Picture signal processing circuit, picture signal processing method, and display unit

Provided is a self-luminous display device including a data calculation section configured to calculate, by using a supplied video signal, data relating to a luminance amount accumulated in a unit of a first block in a target region for luminance control in a screen on which a plurality of pixels are arranged in a matrix, each of the pixels including a light emitting element which emits light by itself according to a current amount, a resampling section configured to resample the data relating to the luminance amount in the target region, in a unit of a second block, the data relating to the luminance amount being calculated by the data calculation section, the second block being larger than the first block, and a scaling section configured to generate data for luminance control in the target region by scaling the data resampled by the resampling section.

Self-luminous display device, control method of self-luminous display device, and computer program

A display includes: a display section; and a display driving section driving the display section based on a first image data set and a second image data set that alternate with each other. The display driving section drives the display section by performing a first scan with use of a first block as a driving unit in accordance with the first image data set and a second scan with use of a second block as a driving unit in accordance with the second image data set. The first block is composed of a plurality of consecutive pixel lines, and the second block is composed of a plurality of consecutive pixel lines and is different from the first block.
