A cumulative function of image is obtained according to its gray levels of pixels. This function is then mapped to obtain a backlight modulation function according to a reference line. The backlight brightness provided for different regions of the liquid crystal display are decided by the backlight modulation function while displaying the images.

Backlight control method for high dynamic range LCD

A method for eliminating shadow around a support pin of an LED backlight is provided. The method includes determining a luminance value for the plurality of LEDs according to a gray level distribution of pixels around the support pin, and setting the plurality of LEDs to the luminance value. The method may also include adjusting gray levels of related pixels according to the luminance profile of pixels around the support pin.

Method for eliminating shadow around support pin of LED backlight

A hue segmentation system and method thereof suitable for image devices are described. First, a plurality of hue segments are generated based on color data of a plurality of colors in a color gamut. Then, the area difference between the hue segments and the color gamut is calculated. If the area difference is greater than a predetermined value, the hue segmentation system searches at least one vertex among the hue segments to divide the segments for generating a plurality of additional hue segments. The above-mentioned steps are performed repeatedly until the area difference is less than the predetermined value. Thus fewer hue segments indicate the color gamut of color processing of the image devices to effectively decrease calculation times and save required memory.

Hue segmentation system and method thereof

A backlight unit usable in an LCD for dynamically expanding color gamut of the LCD. In one embodiment, the backlight unit has a plurality of light emitting elements, and a control unit electrically coupled with the plurality of light emitting elements for controlling intensity of light emitting from each of the plurality of light emitting elements in response to a frame of image data applied to the plurality of pixels, wherein the control unit is configured such that when the frame of image data applied to the plurality of pixels is in a red color, a green color, or a blue color, the intensity of light from the red color, the green color, or the blue color emitting from each of the plurality of light emitting elements is adjusted to its corresponding maximal value so as to expand the red, the green, or the blue area of the color gamut of the LCD panel accordingly.

Dynamic color gamut of LED backlight

A color correction system and a method thereof are disclosed. A correction system according to the present invention includes an identification unit, a correction unit, and an adjustment module. The way of correction includes following steps: firstly the identification unit receives an image color data and identifies whether the image color data is a specific or a non-specific color data. Then the correction unit corrects the specific color data for display while the non-specific color data is adjusted by the adjustment module according to the color characteristics of the image output device. Therefore, the image data to be displayed is corrected and display quality of the image output device is improved.
