Abstract
Devices and methods for reducing or eliminating spatiotemporal dithering image artifacts are provided. By way of example, a method includes providing positive polarity and negative polarity data signals to a plurality of pixels of a display during a first frame period, in which the first frame period corresponds a first spatiotemporal rotation phase. The method includes providing the positive polarity signals and the negative polarity signals to the plurality of pixels of the display during a second frame period, in which the second frame period corresponds a second spatiotemporal rotation phase. A spatiotemporal rotation phase sequence provided to the display comprises the first spatiotemporal rotation phase and the second spatiotemporal rotation phase. One of the first spatiotemporal rotation phase and the second spatiotemporal rotation phase of the spatiotemporal rotation phase sequence is altered during the first frame period or the second time period.
