Abstract:
1. An image display method for displaying an image comprising: forming one field period by a plurality of sub-fields, whose luminance weights to be displayed are determined, for an image display device having a large number of pixels arrayed in a planar form; choosing a plurality of luminances among displayable luminances as luminances for display by combining the luminance weights of the sub-fields; and controlling the respective pixels so as to emit light or not to emit light in each sub-field, corresponding to the luminances for display to be displayed, wherein at least one threshold value to be compared with the luminances for display is set, the at least one threshold value including a first threshold value, and when a pixel is allowed to emit light at a luminance for display at or higher than the first threshold value, the pixel is either in a non-emission status or controlled constantly to emit light in a sub-field having a smallest luminance weight.
