Abstract:
1. A method of displaying an image with a display device having a plurality of defective pixels, the method comprising: identifying first and second numbers of stuck-on-stuck pixels caused by the plurality of defective pixels for first and second offsets, respectively, between a first sub-frame and a second sub-frame; selecting the first offset as a selected offset in response to the first number being less than the second number and the second offset as the selected offset in response to the second number being less than the first number; generating the first sub-frame and the second sub-frame using image data for the image; adjusting a first sub-frame pixel value in the first sub-frame associated with one of the plurality of defective pixels; and alternating between displaying the first sub-frame in a first position and displaying the second sub-frame in a second position, the second position displaced from the first position by an amount defined by the selected offset.
