This application is also related to Taiwan application Serial 95110050, filed Mar. 24, 2006, which corresponds to U.S. application Ser. No. 11/688,634, filed Mar. 20, 2007 and the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.
BACKGROUND
1. Technical Field
The disclosure relates to a display apparatus and a control method thereof, and, in particular, to a liquid crystal display (LCD) apparatus and an image control method thereof.
2. Related Art
Liquid crystal display (LCD) apparatuses have the advantages of low power consumption, low generated heat, lighted weight and non-radiative property, so that the LCDs have been used in various electronic products and gradually replaced the conventional cathode ray tube (CRT) display apparatus.
However, because the LCD apparatus has a multi-layer structure, the light outputted from the backlight module must penetrate through many optical films and a liquid crystal layer, so that the problem of the optical loss is very serious. Usually, the light finally outputted from the surface of the liquid crystal panel is only equal to a small fraction of the light outputted from the backlight source. Therefore, the LCD apparatus usually has the problem of insufficient brightness.
Regarding to this problem, a conventional solution is to add a white-light filter unit to the tricolor (RGB) filter unit in each pixel so that the light output amount of the white backlight is increased and the pixel brightness is increased. FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration showing the comparison of characteristics according to the conventional method (solid line) and conventional improvement method (broken line), wherein each characteristic represents a relationship between the brightness and the color saturation. As shown in FIG. 1, the brightness of the pixel utilizing the conventional improvement method is significantly increased when the pixel displays the tricolor mixture. However, when the displayed light of the pixel is close to monochromatic light (i.e. red, green or blue light), the brightness of the pixel utilizing the conventional improvement method is inversely lower than that utilizing the conventional method.
This is because the white backlight emitted from the white-light filter unit cannot become the gain for the displayed light when the displayed light approximates to monochromatic light. Inversely, the output amount of the monochromatic light is decreased because the area of the monochromatic filter unit is reduced. Thus, when the monochromatic light is being displayed, the brightness of the pixel utilizing the conventional improvement method is inversely lower than that utilizing the conventional method. Consequently, the brightness variation of the pixel utilizing the conventional improvement method is much greater than that utilizing the conventional method.
Therefore, it is important to provide a LCD apparatus with the enhanced display brightness and stable brightness variation, and an image control method thereof.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
The embodiments of the present invention will be apparent from the following detailed description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the same references relate to the same elements.
Referring to FIG. 2, a liquid crystal display (LCD) apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the invention includes a backlight module 11 and an LCD module 12.
FIGS. 3A and 3B are schematic illustrations showing possible, exemplary dividing manners of backlight regions 111 of the backlight module 11. The backlight module 11 is divided into nine regions in FIG. 3A, while the backlight module 11 is divided into four regions in FIG. 3B. However, the dividing manners of the backlight module 11 are not limited thereto and may be configured according to the preferential consideration of increasing the displayed brightness.
As shown in FIG. 2, a first light-emitting unit 111a, a second light-emitting unit 111b and a third light-emitting unit 111c emitting light of different colors are further disposed in each backlight region 111. In this embodiment, the first light-emitting unit 111a, the second light-emitting unit 111b and the third light-emitting unit 111c are respectively a red light-emitting diode (LED), a green LED and a blue LED.
In order to prevent the light outputted from the backlight regions 111 from interfering with one another, an isolating partition 112 for isolating the backlight outputted from the backlight regions 111 is further disposed between the adjacent backlight regions 111. In practice, the isolating partition 112 may be made of various materials according to the preferential consideration of the good light isolating effect.
As shown in FIG. 2, the LCD module 12 is disposed adjacent to the backlight module 11 and has a plurality of display blocks 121. Each display block 121 corresponds to one backlight region 111 and is disposed on optical paths of the red LED 111a, the green LED 111b and the blue LED 111c. The display block 121 also has a plurality of pixels 121a, and each pixel 121a has a first filter unit CF1, a second filter unit CF2, a third filter unit CF3 and an enhancing filter unit CF4. The first filter unit CF1 is a red filter unit, so that only red light outputted from the red LED 111a can penetrate through the first filter unit CF1. The second filter unit CF2 and the third filter unit CF3 are respectively a green filter unit and a blue filter unit. Similarly, only green light outputted from the green LED 111b can penetrate through the green filter unit CF2, and only blue light outputted from the blue LED 111c can penetrate through the blue filter unit CF3. In addition, the enhancing filter unit CF4 is a white-light filter unit, and the red light, green light and blue light can penetrate through the enhancing filter unit CF4.
In addition, various arrangements of the filter units are depicted in FIGS. 4A to 4C. FIG. 4A shows a filter composed of four rectangular filter units (CF1 to CF4) having the same area. FIG. 4B shows a filter composed of four square filter units (CF1 to CF4) having the same area. In FIG. 4C, the rectangular filter units (CF1 to CF3), which are, respectively, red, green and blue filter units and have the same area, are disposed in a row, and three square white-light filter units CF4 are respectively disposed at middle portions of the rectangular filter units (CF1 to CF3). To be noted, the arrangements of the filter units are not limited to this embodiment, and may be modified according to the preferential consideration of increasing the displayed brightness.
As shown in FIG. 5, the LCD apparatus 1 may further include a power regulating module 13 electrically connected to the backlight module 11 and the LCD module 12. The power regulating module 13 has a dividing unit 131 and a regulating unit 132 electrically connected to the dividing unit 131.
When one image frame data 2 is inputted to the power regulating module 13, the dividing unit 131 divides the image frame data 2 into plural image frame data blocks 21 respectively corresponding to the backlight regions 111. The regulating unit 132 receives at least one image frame data block 21, finds the pixel with the largest transmission rate 22 (e.g., 100 on the 0-255 grey scale) in the image frame data block 21, and adjusts the largest transmission rate 22 to the maximum value (e.g., 255). Therefore, a ratio (255/100) can be obtained. Next, the transmission rates 22 of the other pixels are adjusted, i.e., raised, according to the ratio, and a backlight voltage signal 23 of each of the light-emitting units (111a to 111c) of the backlight region 111 is also adjusted, i.e., reduced, according to the ratio. Then, the power regulating module 13 outputs the adjusted transmission rates 22 to the respective pixels 121a of the display block 121, and outputs the adjusted backlight voltage signals 23 to drive the light-emitting units (111a to 111c) of the respective backlight region 111 to emit light.
FIG. 6 is a schematic illustration showing a characteristic, which represents a relationship between the brightness and the color saturation of the LCD apparatus according to the above disclosed embodiment of the invention. Compared with the characteristics of FIG. 1, the brightness of embodiments of the invention has been improved in many aspects, and the brightness variation of embodiments of the invention is much more stable than that of the conventional improvement method.
In addition, an image control method according to embodiments of the invention is applied to the LCD apparatuses of FIGS. 2 to 5. As shown in FIG. 7, the image control method includes the following procedures S1 to S5.
The procedure S1 is an image inputting procedure, in which the LCD apparatus 1 sequentially receives image frame data 2.
The procedure S2 is an image dividing procedure, in which the dividing unit 131 of the power regulating module 13 receives the image frame data 2, and divides the image frame data 2 into plural image frame data blocks 21 each according to one of the backlight regions 111.
The procedure S3 is a power regulating procedure, in which the regulating unit 132 raises a transmission rate of each pixel 121a in the display block 121 of the LCD module 12 according to a ratio, and reduces an average brightness of each backlight region 111 of the backlight module 11 according to the ratio. It is also within the scope of the present invention to reduces a transmission rate of each pixel 121a in the display block 121 of the LCD module 12 according to a ratio, and raises an average brightness of each backlight region 111 of the backlight module 11 according to the ratio.
The procedure S4 is a backlight module emitting procedure, in which the first light-emitting unit 111a, the second light-emitting unit 111b and the third light-emitting unit 111c respectively emit first spectrum light, second spectrum light and third spectrum light according to the reduced average brightness at procedure S3.
The procedure S5 is a LCD module outputting procedure, in which the first spectrum light penetrates through the first filter unit CF1 and the enhancing filter unit CF4 of each pixel 121a, the second spectrum light penetrates through the second filter unit CF2 and the enhancing filter unit CF4 of each pixel 121a, and the third spectrum light penetrates through the third filter unit CF3 and the enhancing filter unit CF4 of each pixel 121a to create an image in conjunction with the LCD module 12 which is being driven according to the raised transmission rate.
The image control method and the functions of each module have been mentioned in the above embodiment, so detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the white-light filter unit of the above-mentioned embodiment is replaced with a cyan filter unit, a magenta filter unit or a yellow filter unit. If the white-light filter unit is replaced with the yellow filter unit, the red light outputted from the red LED in the backlight region penetrates through the red filter unit and the yellow filter unit, and the green light outputted from the green LED in the backlight region penetrates through the green filter unit and the yellow filter unit. Accordingly, the transmissive areas of the red light and the green light are larger in this embodiment so that better brightness may be obtained. Similarly, the magenta filter unit may be selected to enhance the brightness of the red light and the blue light, and the cyan filter unit may be selected to enhance the brightness of the blue light and the green light.
According to still another embodiment of the invention, the red filter unit, the green filter unit and the blue filter unit according to the above-mentioned embodiment are respectively replaced with a cyan filter unit, a magenta filter unit and a yellow filter unit, and the white-light filter unit is removed. In this embodiment, the red light outputted from the red LED in the backlight region penetrates through the magenta filter unit and the yellow filter unit, and the green light outputted from the green LED penetrates through the cyan filter unit and the yellow filter unit, and the blue light outputted from the blue LED penetrates through the cyan filter unit and the magenta filter unit. Compared with the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment may obtain the desired brightness with fewer filter units.
According to yet still another embodiment of the invention, the red filter unit, the green filter unit and the blue filter unit according to the above-mentioned embodiment are respectively replaced with a cyan filter unit, a magenta filter unit and a yellow filter unit, while the white-light filter unit is kept. In this embodiment, the red light outputted from the red LED in the backlight region penetrates through the magenta filter unit, the yellow filter unit and the white-light filter unit, the green light outputted from the green LED penetrates through the cyan filter unit, the yellow filter unit and the white-light filter unit, and the blue light outputted from the blue LED penetrates through the cyan filter unit, the magenta filter unit and the white-light filter unit. Compared with the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment has larger transmissive areas for each color so that higher brightness may be obtained.
In addition to the above-mentioned modifications, the functions of the modules and the image control methods are the same as those of the above-mentioned embodiment. So, detailed descriptions thereof are omitted.
In summary, the backlight module is divided into different backlight regions so that the outputted backlight becomes more uniform in the LCD apparatus and the image control method thereof according to embodiments of the invention. In addition, the backlight sources with three colors (i.e. red, green and blue) in each backlight region are respectively controlled in accordance with image data. Thus, when one backlight region only needs one monochromatic light, such as red, green or blue light, only the monochromatic light source has to be turned on. Meanwhile, each pixel in the backlight region further has an enhancing filter unit, and the monochromatic light penetrates through both the corresponding color filter unit and the enhancing filter unit. Thus, the light emitted from the enhancing filter unit becomes the gain of the displayed brightness of the monochromatic light.
Compared with the related art, embodiments of the invention add the enhancing filter unit and modifies the structure and arrangement of the backlight module. Thus, embodiments of the invention can enhance the displayed brightness more effectively so that the brightness variation becomes more stable. In addition, a power regulating module is utilized to enhance the transmission rate of each pixel and to decrease the light-emitting intensity of the respective backlight module. Thus, the power consumption of the backlight module can be reduced without decreasing the displayed brightness.
Although the invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments, this description is not meant to be construed in a limiting sense. Various modifications of the disclosed embodiments, as well as alternative embodiments, will be apparent to persons skilled in the art. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended claims will cover all modifications that fall within the true scope of the invention.
