Abstract
A method of blending image data that includes displaying a first portion of an image from a first set of pixels according to a first mode in which color values of sub-pixels of the first set of the pixels are determined according to time-averaged colors of the corresponding backlight emitters. The method also includes displaying a second portion of the image from a second set of the pixels according to a second mode in which color values of sub-pixels of a second set of the pixels are determined independently for each of the colors of the corresponding backlight emitters. At an interface between the first portion and the second portion, the first portion and the second portion are generally linearly blended so as to form a blended portion of the image, and the blended portion is displayed.
