Abstract
A display device includes pixels, each including a set of sub-pixels. A first subset of the pixels may each include white, green, and blue sub-pixels, but not a red sub-pixel. A second subset of the pixels may each include white, green, and red sub-pixels, but not a blue sub-pixel. The pixels may alternate between the first subset and the second subset in at least one direction. First luminance data may be extracted from an input image signal based on a map that specifies locations of pixels of the first subset, and second luminance data may be extracted from the input image signal based on a map that specifies locations of pixels of the second subset. The display device may drive the blue sub-pixels based on the first luminance data and drive the red sub-pixels based on the second luminance data.
