20090140965 | IMAGE DISPLAY SYSTEM - This invention provides an image display system that includes an image display device having an overdrive processing circuit and allows reduction in memory cost as a whole. The image display system according to this invention includes an image generation device that generates image data, and an image display device that receives the image data from the image generation device, performs overdrive processing based on the received image data, and displays an image. The image generation device includes a rendering circuit that generates image data to be outputted to the image display device for every frame, a memory unit that holds the plural pieces of image data corresponding to at least two frames among the plural pieces of image data generated by the rendering circuit, and a transfer circuit that transfers the plural pieces of image data corresponding to two frames among the plural pieces of image data held by the memory unit to the image display device within one frame period. The image display device receives the plural pieces of image data corresponding to the two frames from the transfer circuit and performs the overdrive processing based on the received image data. | 06-04-2009 |
20090213299 | DISPLAY DEVICE - A display device includes a light guide plate which includes a light transmission portion and an antireflection portion at two opposite end faces and which is provided with a light extraction portion in part of a surface, respective light sources which are arranged on outer sides of the two opposite end faces, a transmission liquid crystal panel located adjacent to the light extraction portion, and a synchronous drive unit that alternately turns ON the light sources and that displays an image that is synchronous with an alternating turn-ON operation of the transmission liquid crystal panel. | 08-27-2009 |
20110002142 | FLAT SURFACE LIGHT SOURCE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING METALLIC MOLD FOR DIVIDING PRISM - A planar light source device capable of increasing light use efficiency and preventing color breakup without using any reflection polarizing plate nor performing multiple reflection. The planar light source device includes a planar light guide plate, light sources arranged as to be opposed to end surfaces of the light guide plate on its both sides, and a divided prism formed in a back surface inside the light guide plate and that reflects light incident upon the light guide plate from the light sources toward a front surface side of the light guide plate. The divided prism includes a prism portion and a dividing portion both of which have a width equal to or less than the wavelength of light from the light sources and is formed with the prism portion and the dividing portion alternately repeated along a direction parallel to the end surfaces of the light guide plate which are opposed to the light sources. | 01-06-2011 |
20120127400 | ILLUMINATION DEVICE AND LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY - It is an object of the invention to provide a technique capable of suppressing variations in luminance in the vicinity of a light entrance surface of a light guide plate. An illumination device includes a point light source, and a light guide plate having a side surface serving as a light entrance surface opposed to the point light source, and a main surface serving as a light exit surface. The light entrance surface of the light guide plate is provided with unevenness formed by arraying at predetermined pitches a plurality of protrusions each projecting from the light entrance surface and extending in a direction perpendicular to the light exit surface. Each of the top surface and the bottom surface of the unevenness is provided with a plurality of micro protrusions each extending in the direction perpendicular to the light exit surface and having a height smaller than the above protrusion. | 05-24-2012 |
20140085439 | DISPLAY DEVICE - The display device includes a display panel on which sub-pixel pairs are arranged in a lateral direction, and a parallax barrier shutter panel on which sub-openings that can be changed between a light transmittance state and a light-shielding state are arranged in a lateral direction. Arbitrary allocated number of adjacent sub-openings among the plural sub-openings belonging to a reference parallax barrier pitch are put into a light transmittance state, and the remaining sub-openings are put into a light-shielding state, so that a general opening is formed on the parallax barrier shutter panel. A sub-opening pitch of the sub-opening on the boundary part between the adjacent common driving areas is different from the sub-opening pitch of the other sub-openings. | 03-27-2014 |
20140184660 | DISPLAY DEVICE - A one-pixel structure of a display panel included in an auto-stereoscopic image display device adopts an in-plane switching mode. Transparent counter electrodes that are not provided in a liquid crystal panel of a normal in-plane switching mode are formed correspondingly to pixel peripheral regions on a second transparent substrate side and, in | 07-03-2014 |
