In one aspect, a buffer layer is applied to block electrons from being photoelectrically ejected from a movable reflective layer of a display element and into a stationary optical stack of the display element. | 07-31-2014 |
| 20140253569 | INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A withdrawer withdrawing an image presenting the memory contents of a volatile storage to a nonvolatile storage at the time of power shutdown; a withdrawal controller controlling the withdrawer to withdraw an image containing only data regarding the programs fulfilling a given withdrawal condition among multiple running programs to the nonvolatile storage if the image contains data regarding the multiple programs; and a restorer restoring the operation state of the device to the operation state at the time of last power shutdown based on the image at the time of resupply of power if the image withdrawn by the withdrawer at the time of last power shutdown is present in the nonvolatile storage. | 09-11-2014 |
| 20140285504 | CONTROLLABLE DISPLAY APPARATUS AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF - Aspects of the invention relate to a controllable display apparatus and applications thereof. The controllable display storage includes a storage having a storage space therein and an opening exposing the storage space to an outer environment, a transparent display panel disposed at the opening, configured to display information thereon, a control device disposed between a part of the storage space and the transparent display panel, where at least a part of the control device is switchable between a transparent mode and an opaque mode, such that the information displayed on the transparent display panel is viewable when the control device is in the opaque mode, and an item displayed in the storage space is viewable through the transparent display panel when the control device is in the transparent mode, and at least one light source disposed in the storage space to provide light to the storage space. | 09-25-2014 |
| 20140306976 | DISPLAY CONTROL DEVICE, DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM - An information processing apparatus includes: memory configured to store local data associated with content and to store network data associated with the content, wherein the local data comprises real data associated with the content, and wherein the network data comprises metadata associated with the content; and a display control unit configured to control display of the local data and the network data on a display unit based on time information associated with the network data and the local data. | 10-16-2014 |
| 20140354663 | INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, IMAGE FILE PLAYING METHOD, AND GENERATION METHOD - A reception unit receives an image file from other electronic device. A display processing unit displays an image related to acquisition of content together with a content image if content identification information is included in an acquired image file. The display processing unit displays, as an image relating to acquisition of content, a link button which permits access to a content server. | 12-04-2014 |
| 20140368518 | METHOD AND A SYSTEM FOR CONFIGURATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF A COMPUTER READABLE FILE - Disclosed is a method and a system for configuration and distribution of a computer readable file to display a memorial message, the memorial message including elements selected by a sponsor user for display to members of a group, at least one of the elements being an image of a burning candle. | 12-18-2014 |
| 20150029202 | DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR INSPECTING THE SAME - The disclosed display apparatus eliminates the need of a dedicated inspection jig when inspecting a memory carried on the driving substrate of the display apparatus; a memory inspection can be conducted under conditions for practical use in which TCON reading memory data is operated; and another display inspection (such as a point defect inspection) can be conducted simultaneously with the memory inspection. The display apparatus includes a drive circuit for holding and utilizing operation setting data in the memory, wherein the drive circuit includes: a display data generation section which associates two values of data bits read from the memory with two values of light and shade or different colors and makes image data represented in a line or a rectangle; a switch for selecting the data generated by the display data generation section and input image data; and a switching timing control section which controls timing of switching. | 01-29-2015 |
| 20160005141 | Polygon Simplification - Polygons can be simplified from an original, higher resolution to a simplified, lower resolution such that the simplified versions of the polygons do not introduce errors and also do not render boundaries shared with other polygons invalid. | 01-07-2016 |
| 20160005144 | PROGRAMMABLE DISPLAY - A programmable display includes a display, a volatile memory, a nonvolatile memory that stores control screen data containing screen data, and a controller that loads the control screen data from the nonvolatile memory into the volatile memory at startup and displays a screen on the display on the basis of control screen data loaded into the volatile memory. The controller has a function to store the control screen data received from a screen data creation device in the nonvolatile memory and a function to store the control screen data received from the screen data creation device directly in the volatile memory. | 01-07-2016 |
| 20160163291 | RELAY-BASED BIDIRECTIONAL DISPLAY INTERFACE - A chain of bidirectional display driver integrated circuits (DICs). The chain has a beginning and an end, the chain includes a plurality of DICs, each of the plurality of DICs including: a direct data input, a relay data input, and a relay data output. Each of the plurality of DICs is configured to combine data received at the direct data input with a stream of bits received at the relay data input to form combined data, and to transmit the combined data through the relay data output. | 06-09-2016 |
