Abstract:
1. A method for displaying an image on a liquid crystal display, said method comprising: (a) illuminating a first LCD pixel, with a light-emitting element, at a first non-zero illumination level during an initial frame, where said liquid crystal display prevents said light-emitting element from having a non-zero luminance below a minimum threshold value; (b) illuminating said first LCD pixel at a second non-zero illumination level during a next subsequent frame; (c) wherein said first pixel is selectively decreased in illumination a plurality of times to respective black point illumination levels during the interval of said initial frame; and (d) wherein said respective black point illumination levels have associated respective widths each automatically selected to cooperatively achieve a non-zero illumination level in said first LCD pixel below said threshold value.
