Abstract
A first and a second light valve control values are derived for a first and a second frames, respectively, in a specific region of a display panel based on image data of the first and second frames. It is determined whether a difference between the first and second light valve control values exceeds a light valve control threshold. If so, a light source driving waveform is constructed to comprise a sequence of light source control pulses for controlling one or more light sources designated to illuminate the specific region of the display panel. The sequence of light source control pulses is constrained to start at a start time plus a transition time interval. The transition time interval allows light valves in the specific region of the display panel to complete a transition between the first and second light valve control values.
