Abstract:
1. A display unit, comprising: a liquid crystal display section displaying a series of original frame images and a series of interpolated frame images in a time-divisional manner, the interpolated frame images being generated based on the original frame images; a backlight emitting light intermittently; a backlight control section controlling a first light-emission amount and a second light-emission amount of the backlight independently of each other, the first light-emission amount being an amount during a first period corresponding to a period for displaying the original frame images, and the second light-emission amount being an amount during a second period corresponding to a period for displaying the interpolated frame images; and a computing section determining, based on each of the original frame images, an amount of display light to be projected from a display surface of the liquid crystal display section in response to display of the original frame images on the liquid crystal display section, wherein the backlight control section controls the first light-emission amount and the second light-emission amount based on the amount of display light obtained by the computing section, and wherein the backlight control section decreases the first light-emission amount and increases the second light-emission amount when the amount of display light is increased, and increases the first light-emission amount and decreases the second light-emission amount when the amount of display light is decreased.
