Abstract:
An image display apparatus including display means having a plurality of pixels arranged in a matrix and driven by a field sequential scanning system, the image display apparatus comprising:analog/digital conversion means for converting an input analog video signal into a digital data signal;memory means for receiving the digital data signal and storing the digital data signal separately by every field and for one or more fields at the same time;time-axis modulation means for receiving the digital data signal stored in the memory means and modulating the received digital data signal within its time domain;digital signal conversion means for converting the digital data signal temporally expanded or compressed into a display data signal;data transfer means for receiving the display data signal and transferring the display data signal to the display means;data scanning means for selecting a pixel to which a transferred display data signal is to be supplied among the plurality of pixels of the display means; andcontrol means for controlling the analog/digital conversion means, the memory means, the time-axis modulation means, the digital signal conversion means, the data transfer means, and the data scanning means, so as to effect display of said video signal,wherein each of the pixels includes data holding means for holding a transferred display data signal supplied to a selected pixel, and at least one of the analog/digital conversion means, the memory means, the time-axis modulation means, the digital signal conversion means, and the control means, the data transfer means, the data scanning means, and the data holding means are formed on a same substrate as a pixel.
