Abstract
A video signal enhancement unit () and an image display apparatus containing the unit have a processing unit () for contrast modification of the video signal. The processing unit () receives input data from a contrast counter (), designed to store a contrast count. The contrast count is decreased by a pixel counter () each time the total number of pixels which have video signal levels that are higher than a predetermined video level, exceeds a predefined threshold. The contrast count is increased each time a trigger means () generates a pulse. A contrast comparator () can be coupled to the contrast counter () to limit the contrast count to a maximum contrast value.
