Title: Improvements in and relating to displays
Inventor: Simon Trythall
IPC: H04N5/44
Filed: 2016-10-03
Abstract: A digital display device is controlled to generate an image as an array of pixels, each of a defined brightness achieved by emitting a respective combination of light pulses of durations defined according to a predetermined pulse width modulation (PWM) scheme. Data is received defining a required brightness level for pixel(s) during an image refresh period; control data is determined defining those pixels required to emit a light pulse of each defined pulse duration of the PWM scheme to achieve the respective required pixel brightness levels. Rate data is received from an associated (eye) tracker system, or derived from orientation data output therefrom, defining a rate of movement of a user eye gaze direction relative to the display. The tracker rate data and data defining predetermined display characteristics (e.g. relative light pulse timings, angular pixel size) and operation are used to calculate pixel displacement in respect of each defined PWM pulse; this modifies control data defining those pixels to be activated such that a different pixel to that intended emits the pulse during relative movement of the direction of gaze and the display, reducing unwanted display artefacts, e.g. different brightness of space-stabilised symbols.
