A system, method, and computer program product are provided for determining that a display device is operating in a three-dimensional mode. Further, in response to the determination that the display device is operating in the three-dimensional mode, determining a phase of a current frame. Additionally, a setting from a first table or a setting from a second table is applied based on the determined phase of the current frame.
The present application claims the priority of a previously filed provisional application filed Sep. 29, 2010 under Ser. No. 61/387,948, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The present invention relates to display systems, and more particularly to display systems operating in a three-dimensional display mode.
Traditionally, display systems include display panel cells that are direct current (DC) driven. Further, these display panel cells are driven with an alternating drive voltage polarity on each frame. Additionally, when a display for the display system is operating in a frame sequential method for displaying a three-dimensional image, the display may receive a different pixel value for each frame.
For example, a region of cells may be black (e.g. G0) in a left eye view, and the same region of cells may be gray (e.g. G160) in a right eye view. Further, in the context of the current example, for such a region, each cell of the display may be alternately driven across as G0, G160, G0, and G160, switching the value every frame. Additionally, since a cell value changes and the drive voltage polarity alternates for the cell for each frame, a direct current imbalance may occur causing a slow luminance drift of the cell, where an intensity of the cell slowly drifts to a stable value over a time period.
Therefore, the slow luminance drift for a cell presents a problem for display systems operating in a three-dimensional display mode and there is thus a need for addressing these and/or other issues associated with the prior art.

FIG. 5 shows a system for updating an overdrive table for a display device, in accordance with still yet another embodiment.
FIG. 6 shows an example of luminosity over time of a portion of a display device in a first phase and a second phase, in accordance with one embodiment.
FIG. 1 illustrates an exemplary computer system 100 in which the various architecture and/or functionality of various embodiments may be implemented. As shown, a computer system 100 is provided including at least one host processor 101, which is connected to a communication bus 102. The computer system 100 also includes a main memory 104. Control logic (software) and data are stored in the main memory 104 which may take the form of random access memory (RAM).
The computer system 100 also includes a graphics processor 106 and a display 108 in the form of a liquid crystal display (LCD), digital light processing (DLP) display, liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) display, organic light emitting diode (OLED) display, plasma display, or other similar display. In one embodiment, the graphics processor 106 may include a plurality of shader modules, a rasterization module, etc. Each of the foregoing modules may even be situated on a single semiconductor platform to form a graphics processing unit (GPU). Further, in yet another embodiment, the display 108 may include a processor.
Computer programs, or computer control logic algorithms, may be stored in the main memory 104 and/or the secondary storage 110. Such computer programs, when executed, enable the computer system 100 to perform various functions. Main memory 104, secondary storage 110 and/or any other storage are possible examples of computer-readable media.
Further included is a pair of shutter glasses 111 capable of being worn on a face of a user. While the shutter glasses 111 are shown to include two elongated members for supporting the same on the face of the user, it should be noted that other constructions (e.g. member-less design, head strap, helmet, etc.) may be used to provide similar or any other type of support. As further shown, the shutter glasses 111 also include a right eye shutter 114 and a left eye shutter 113. Optionally, the shutter glasses 111 may include active shutter glasses.
In one embodiment, both the right eye shutter 114 and left eye shutter 113 are capable of both an open orientation and a closed orientation. In use, the open orientation allows more light therethrough with respect to the closed orientation. Of course, such orientations may be achieved by any desired mechanical, electrical, optical, and/or any other mechanism capable of carrying out the above functionality.
In the context of the current embodiment, for control purposes, the shutter glasses 111 may be coupled to a stereo controller 119 via a cable 118 (or without the cable 118 in a wireless environment). As an example, in the wireless environment, the shutter glasses 111 may be in communication with an emitter coupled to the stereo controller 119, the communication bus 102, etc. The stereo controller 119 is, in turn, coupled between the graphics processor 106 and the display 108 for carrying out the functionality to be set forth hereinafter. While the stereo controller 119 is shown to reside between the graphics processor 106 and the display 108, it should be noted that the stereo controller 119 may reside in any location associated with the computer system 100, the shutter glasses 111, and/or even in a separate module, particularly (but not necessarily) in an embodiment where the graphics processor 106 is attached to a separate interface [e.g. universal serial bus (USB), etc.] on the computer system 100. In one embodiment, the display 108 may be directly connected to the computer system 100, and the stereo controller 119 may further be directly connected to the computer system 100 via a USB interface. Still yet, the stereo controller 119 may comprise any hardware and/or software capable of the providing the desired functionality.
Specifically, in some embodiments, the right eye shutter 114 and left eye shutter 113 are controlled to switch between the closed orientation and the open orientation. As an option, the right eye shutter 114 and left eye shutter 113 of the shutter glasses 111 may be controlled such that the right eye shutter 114 and left eye shutter 113 simultaneously remain in the closed orientation for a predetermined amount of time.
In addition to and/or instead of the foregoing technique, the stereo controller 119, the display 108, and/or any other appropriate hardware/software associated with the computer system 100 may be equipped with functionality for adapting the display 108 in a way that enhances a viewing experience when display content is viewed utilizing the shutter glasses 111.
Of course, it should be noted that the system 100 is not limited to the use of the shutter glasses 111, but instead may optionally include passive polarization glasses (not shown). Further, the passive polarization glasses may include a left eye lens and a right eye lens. Optionally, a first polarization may be associated with the left eye lens that is different from a second polarization associated with the right eye lens. In one embodiment, the passive polarization glasses may be utilized when viewing content displayed by an active polarization device.
Furthermore, in one embodiment, the display 108 may include the active polarization device (e.g. an active retarder, a Z-screen, etc.). As an option, the active polarization device may be positioned in front of a display panel (e.g. a LCD panel, an OLED panel) of the display 108. For example, the active polarization device may be positioned directly in front of an LCD panel of the display 108. Further, as yet another option, the active polarization device may switch polarization on a frame by frame basis. For example, the active polarization device of the display 108 may perform active switching thereby changing the polarization associated with the active polarization device every other frame.
In yet another embodiment, a first polarization of the active polarization device may be associated with the left eye lens of the passive polarization glasses, and a second polarization of the active polarization device may be associated with the right eye lens of the passive polarization glasses. Optionally, the first polarization and the second polarization may be fixed. For example, the first polarization of the active polarization device may be associated with a left eye frame intended for viewing through the left eye lens of the passive polarization glasses, and the second polarization of the active polarization device may be associated with a right eye frame intended for viewing through the right eye lens of the passive polarization glasses.
For example, in one embodiment, the architecture and/or functionality of the various following figures may be implemented in the context of the host processor 101, graphics processor 106, the processor of the display 108, a chipset (i.e. a group of integrated circuits designed to work and sold as a unit for performing related functions, etc.), and/or any other integrated circuit for that matter. Still yet, the architecture and/or functionality of the various following figures may be implemented in the context of a general computer system, a circuit board system, a game console system dedicated for entertainment purposes, an application-specific system, and/or any other desired system.
For example, the system 100 may take the form of a desktop computer, lap-top computer, and/or any other type of logic. Still yet, the system 100 may take the form of various other devices including, but not limited to, a personal digital assistant (PDA) device, a mobile phone device, a television, etc.
Further, while not shown, the system 100 may be coupled to a network [e.g. a telecommunications network, local area network (LAN), wireless network, wide area network (WAN) such as the Internet, peer-to-peer network, cable network, etc.) for communication purposes.
FIG. 2 shows a method 200 for applying a setting based on a determined phase of a frame, in accordance with one embodiment. As an option, the present method 200 may be implemented in the context of the functionality and architecture of FIG. 1. Of course, however, the method 200 may be carried out in any desired environment. It should also be noted that the aforementioned definitions may apply during the present description.
As shown in operation 202, it is determined that a display device is operating in a three-dimensional mode. In the context of one embodiment, the display device may include a computer display, a display panel of a portable device, a television display, or any other display such as the display 108 of FIG. 1. Optionally, the display device may include a liquid crystal display (LCD).
Furthermore, as an option, the display device may include a stereo capable display device. As yet another option, the stereo capable display device may display content for viewing with shutter glasses (e.g. shutter glasses 111 of FIG. 1, etc.). Optionally, the display device may include an active polarization device that changes a polarization of light emitted from the display device on a frame by frame basis for viewing with passive polarization glasses.
Additionally, in another embodiment, the display device may be capable of operating in a two-dimensional mode. As an option, when the display device is operating in a two-dimensional mode, the display device may display a sequence of frames intended for viewing by at least one viewer. For example, when the display device is operating in the two-dimensional mode, the display device may display a series of frames that are intended for viewing by both eyes of the viewer.
Furthermore, in accordance with yet another embodiment, the display device may be capable of operating in a three-dimensional mode. Optionally, when the display device is operating in the three-dimensional mode, the display device may display a series of frames in a frame sequential manner. As an example, displaying the series of frames in the frame sequential manner may include displaying a first frame intended for one eye of the viewer, then displaying a second frame intended for another eye of the viewer. Further, as yet another example, when the display device is operating in the three-dimensional mode, the display device may display a left eye frame intended for viewing by a left eye of the viewer, followed by a right eye frame intended for viewing by a right eye of the viewer. Additionally, as yet another option, when the device is operating in the three-dimensional mode, the display device may display content for viewing with the shutter glasses (e.g. the shutter glasses 111 of FIG. 1, etc.) or the passive polarization glasses.
Additionally, the operating mode of the display device may be determined by the display device. Optionally, the display device may determine the current operating mode of the display device by reading a register, a setting, an attribute, etc. associated with the display device. In addition, the operating mode of the display device may be indicated in a firmware of the display device. For example, the firmware of the display device may instruct the display device to operate in the two-dimensional mode or the three-dimensional mode. As another option, a processor of the display device may determine the current operating mode of the display device. Furthermore, the operating mode of the display device may be indicated to the display device by another device (e.g. a graphics processing unit of FIG. 1, etc.) in communication with the display device. Still yet, the operating mode of the display device may be indicated to the display device by a driver in communication with the display device.
Further, in response to the determination that the display device is operating in the three-dimensional mode, a phase of a current frame is determined. See operation 204. In one embodiment, the display device may utilize a three-dimensional mode aware polarity reversal. As an option, the three-dimensional mode aware polarity reversal may invert a polarity of each cell of the display device every N number of frames. Additionally, the N number of frames may be even and may include at least two frames. Optionally, the N number of frames may include at least four frames, at least six frames, at least eight frames, etc.
In addition, the polarity (e.g. a drive polarity, etc.) of each cell of the display device may include a positive polarity (e.g. +) or a negative polarity (e.g. −). For example, the polarity of each cell of the display device may include a positive voltage (e.g. +V) or a negative voltage (e.g. −V). Optionally, the inverting of the polarity of each cell of the display device may include changing the positive polarity to the negative polarity. Further, as another option, the inverting of the polarity of each cell of the display device may include changing the negative polarity to the positive polarity. For example, if the N number of frames includes two frames, a voltage polarity of a particular cell for a first frame and a second frame may be positive, a voltage polarity of the particular cell for a third frame and a fourth frame may be negative, a voltage polarity of the particular cell for a fifth frame and a sixth frame may be positive, etc. (e.g. +V, +V, −V, −V, +V, +V, etc.). Still, as another option, the N number of frames may indicate that the particular cell is driven with the positive polarity for the N number of frames followed by the particular cell being driven for with the negative polarity for the N number of frames.
Furthermore, as yet another option, each cell of the display device may be direct current (DC) neutral driven by inverting the polarity each cell of the display device every N number of frames. Optionally, the display device may include a plurality of cells that are direct current balanced (e.g. direct current neutral) when an average value of a current for each cell is zero over the N number of frames where the cell is driven with a positive polarity and the N number of frames where the cell is driven with a negative polarity. Additionally, the cells of the display device may output a consistent luminance in response to the cells being direct current balanced over the N number of frames where the cells are driven with the positive polarity and the N number of frames where the cells are driven with the negative polarity. Optionally, each pixel of the display device may include at least one cell of the display device.
As an option, the phase of the current frame may be based on a polarity of a first frame and a polarity of a second frame. Optionally, the first frame may include the current frame and the second frame may include a previous frame. For example, determining the phase of the current frame may include determining the polarity of a current frame and the polarity of previous frame.
In one embodiment, if the polarity of the current frame is determined to be the opposite of the polarity of the previous frame, then the determined phase may include a first phase. Further, as an option, the first phase may be associated with a first table. Optionally, the first table may include an overdrive table. In addition, the overdrive table may include at least one setting. As another option, the overdrive table may include at least one voltage setting. As an example, if the polarity of the current frame is opposite of the polarity of the previous frame, then the determined phase may include a first phase. In another embodiment, the first phase may include “Phase A” and the first table may include a “Phase A” overdrive table. Furthermore, the first phase may be direct current balanced.
In one embodiment, if the polarity of the current frame is determined to be the same of the polarity of the previous frame, then the determined phase may include a second phase. Further, as an option, the second phase may be associated with a second table. Optionally, the second table may include an overdrive table. In addition, the overdrive table may include at least one setting. As another option, the overdrive table may include at least one voltage setting. As an example, if the polarity of the current frame is the same of the polarity of the previous frame, then the determined phase may include a second phase. In another embodiment, the second phase may include “Phase B” and the second table may include a “Phase B” overdrive table. Furthermore, the second phase may be direct current balanced.
In addition, as shown in operation 206, a setting from a first table or a setting from a second table is applied based on the determined phase of the current frame. As an option, if the determined phase includes the first phase, then a setting from the first table may be applied. Further, as another option, if the determined phase includes the second phase, then a setting from the second table may be applied. For example, the setting from the first table or the setting from the second table may be applied to make a luminance level of a same cell identical in the first and second phase. As an option, the setting may include a drive voltage.
Additionally, in one embodiment, the first table and the second table may each include a separate overdrive table. As an option, each table may be included in memory. For example, the first table and the second table may be separately stored in the memory. Optionally, the memory may include any memory associated with the display device, a graphics processing unit, a processor, a computer, etc. Additionally, in another embodiment, a driver, the display device, a manufacturer, a designer, a user, and/or any other entity may set the settings, values, etc. in each of the overdrive tables.
Furthermore, in yet another embodiment, the first table and the second table may be implemented as a single overdrive table. Additionally, as an option, the single overdrive table may be included, stored, etc. in the memory. For example, the first table and the second table may utilize a single shared overdrive table stored in the memory.
In addition, in one embodiment, the single overdrive table may be reprogrammed for the determined phase during between two frames. Optionally, reprogramming the single overdrive table may include loading, updating, storing, etc. settings in the single overdrive table associated with the determined phase.
As an example, the single overdrive table may be reprogrammed for the determined phase during a vertical blank period between two frames. Further, as an option, the single overdrive table may be updated by the display device, a processor of the display device, a process associated with the display device, a graphics processing unit, a driver, etc. For example, the driver associated with the graphics processing unit may update the single shared overdrive table during the vertical blank period between two frames. Additionally, as another example, the process associated with the display device may update the single shared overdrive table during the vertical blank period between two frames.
FIG. 3 shows a method 300 for applying a setting for each frame, in accordance with another embodiment. As an option, the present method 300 may be implemented in the context of the functionality and architecture of FIGS. 1-2. Of course, however, the method 300 may be carried out in any desired environment. It should also be noted that the aforementioned definitions may apply during the present description.
As shown in operation 302, it is determined that a display device is operating in a three-dimensional mode. Furthermore, in response to the determination that the display device is operating in the three-dimensional mode, a voltage associated with each cell of the display device is driven to zero between each frame. See operation 304. As an option, the voltage associated with each cell of the display device may be driven to zero during a vertical blank period between each frame. For example, driving each cell of the display device to zero voltage during the vertical blank period between a first frame and a second frame may remove a dependency on the first frame to achieve a final luminosity for the frame.
Additionally, as shown in operation 306, a voltage setting from a table is utilized to drive each frame. As an option, the setting may include a corrected voltage and the table may include an overdrive table. Optionally, after driving the voltage associated with each cell to zero, a voltage setting (e.g. a drive voltage) from the table (e.g. an overdrive table) may be utilized in driving a correct voltage to each cell of the display device for the frame. As an example, if the display device drives each cell's voltage value to zero volts between each frame, then a single overdrive table may be utilized for each frame and the overdrive table may not need to be updated between each frame.
FIG. 4 shows a method 400 for applying a setting based on a determined phase of a frame, in accordance with yet another embodiment. As an option, the present method 400 may be implemented in the context of the functionality and architecture of FIGS. 1-3. Of course, however, the method 300 may be carried out in any desired environment. It should also be noted that the aforementioned definitions may apply during the present description.
As shown in operation 402, a frame is received by the display device. As an option, the received frame may be received by the display device when the display device is operating in a three-dimensional mode. Optionally, the three-dimensional mode may include displaying a three-dimensional image utilizing a frame sequential method. Further, the frame sequential method may include displaying a frame for a left eye, in sequence with displaying a frame for a right eye. Additionally, in one embodiment, the display device may utilize a three-dimensional mode aware polarity reversal where the display device inverts a drive polarity of each cell of the display device every other frame.
For example, utilizing the frame sequential method, a region of cells of the display device may be black (e.g. gray value 0 (G0)) in a first frame intended for a left eye, and the same region of cells of the display device may be gray (e.g. gray value 160 (G160)) in a second frame intended for a right eye. In the context of the current example, for the region of cells, each cell may be driven as G0, G160, G0, G160, etc. switching a value each frame. Furthermore, utilizing the three-dimensional mode aware polarity reversal, which may invert the drive polarity every other frame, a voltage polarity sequence for a particular cell in the region of cells may include +VG0, +VG160, −VG0, −VG160, +VG0, +VG160, etc.
As yet another example, for a region of cells of the display device, a stereo driver (e.g. associated with a graphics processing unit) may be driving G0 for the region of cells of a first frame, G160 for the region of cells of a second frame, G0 for the region of cells of a third frame, and G160 for the region of cells of a fourth frame. Further, in the context of the current example, the display device may translate G0 to 27 volts (27V) and G0 to 10V. Additionally, in the context of the current example, with a frame inversion interval of every other frame, the display device may be driving voltage polarity for a particular set of cells in the region of cells as +V, +V, −V, and −V. Therefore, in the current example, the particular set of cells in the region of cells of the display device may receive +27V, +10V, −27V, and −10V, which may result in a direct current balance for the particular set of cells in the region of cells of the display device since a sum of the voltages for the particular set of cells in the region of cells for the frames is 0V. Further, as an option, a torque of an LCD molecule of the display device may be proportional to the voltage squared.
In addition, a polarity of the received frame and a polarity of a previous frame are determined. See operation 404. As an example, the previous frame may include the frame immediately preceding the received frame. Furthermore, based on the polarity of the received frame and the polarity of the previous frame, it is determined if the display device is in a first phase or a second phase. See decision 406.
In one embodiment, the display device may startup in either a first phase or a second phase. Optionally, the display device may randomly startup in either the first phase or the second phase. In another embodiment, the phase may be determined after the display device startup based on the polarity of the received frame and the polarity of a previous frame. Further, as an option, after the display device startup, a first frame may be initially ignored and the phase may be determined during a second frame (e.g. once the polarity of the received frame and the polarity of the previous frame are both available).
As an example, the first phase may include a drive voltage sequence of +VG0, −VG160, −VG0, +VG160, etc., and the second phase may include a drive voltage sequence of +VG0, +VG160, −VG0, −VG160, etc. Further, in the context of the current example, from a point of view of G160, the previous frame (e.g. G0) may be driven with an opposite drive polarity in the first phase, and the previous frame may be driven with a same drive polarity in the second phase.
In another embodiment, the first phase may be selected if a previous right eye frame includes a negative polarity (e.g. −VG160) and a current right eye frame includes a positive polarity (e.g. +VG160). As another example, the second phase may be selected if the previous right eye frame includes a positive polarity (e.g. +VG160) and the current right eye frame includes a negative polarity (e.g. −VG160). As an option, the first phase may include either a left eye view or a right eye view. Additionally, as another option, the second phase may include either a left eye view or a right eye view.
Also, as shown in operation 408, in response to the determination that the display device is in the first phase, a setting is retrieved from a first table. Optionally, the first table may include an overdrive table. Additionally, the first table may be selected in response to the determination that the display device is in the first phase. Further, as an option, the setting from the first table may include a value utilized to adjust a drive voltage of the received frame. For example, the setting for the drive voltage may be looked up in an overdrive table associated with the first phase.
Further, as shown in operation 410, in response to the determination that the display device is in the second phase, a setting is retrieved from a second table. Optionally, the second table may include an overdrive table. Additionally, the second table may be selected in response to the determination that the display device is in the second phase. Further, as an option, the setting from the second table may include a value utilized to adjust a drive voltage of the received frame. For example, the setting for the drive voltage may be looked up in an overdrive table associated with the second phase.
Additionally, the retrieved setting is applied to the received frame. See operation 412. As an option, the setting retrieved from the first table or the second table may be utilized to adjust the drive voltage of the received frame. Optionally, adjusting the drive voltage of the received frame utilizing the setting from the first table may increase or decrease a luminosity of cells of the display device in the first phase. Further, as another option, adjusting the drive voltage of the received frame utilizing the setting from the second table may increase or decrease a luminosity of the cells of the display device in the second phase. As an example, the setting from the first table may be utilized to adjust the drive voltage of the received frame so that a luminance of identical cells (e.g. G160 cells) in different frames are identical in the first phase and the second phase. Thus, in one embodiment, the retrieved setting from the first table or the second table may be applied at a correct time based on the determined phase.
FIG. 5 shows a system 500 for updating an overdrive table for a display device, in accordance with still yet another embodiment. As an option, the present system 500 may be implemented in the context of the functionality and architecture of FIGS. 1-4. Of course, however, the system 500 may be implemented in any desired environment. It should also be noted that the aforementioned definitions may apply during the present description.
In one embodiment, the system 500 may include a display device 502. Additionally, the display device 502 may include an overdrive table 504. As an option, the overdrive table 504 may include a single shared overdrive table. For example, the single shared overdrive table may be utilized to store settings for a first phase and a second phase of the display device 502.
Additionally, in accordance with the embodiment, the system 500 may include a driver 508. As an option, the driver 508 may be in communication with the display device 502.

FIG. 6 shows an example 600 of luminosity over time of a portion of a display device in a first phase and a second phase, in accordance with one embodiment. As an option, the present example 600 may result from an implementation in the context of the functionality and architecture of FIGS. 1-5. Of course, however, the example 600 may result from an implementation of any of the aforementioned embodiments. It should also be noted that the aforementioned definitions may apply during the present description.
In one embodiment, a luminance level of cells (e.g. G160 cells) for a plurality of frames driven with a first phase voltage polarity may be higher than a luminance level of cells (e.g. G160 cells) for a plurality of frames driven with a second phase voltage polarity. In the context of the current example, a luminosity of G160 cells for the plurality of frames in the first phase and a luminosity of G160 cells for the plurality of frames in the second phase may be adjusted utilizing an overdrive table. Further, adjusting the luminosity of the cells for the plurality of frames in the first phase or the second phase utilizing the overdrive table may result in the luminosity of the cells for the plurality of frames in the first phase and the luminosity of the cells for the plurality of frames in the second phase being identical, similar, etc.
In the context of the current example, starting at time T0 until time T1, a first plurality of frames is displayed. Additionally, a portion of the first plurality of frames is displaying a cell value of G0. Further, an average luminosity for the portion of the first plurality of frames that is displaying the cell value of G0 is indicated as L0.
Additionally, in the context of the current example, starting at time T1 until time T2, a second plurality of frames is displayed. In addition, a portion of the second plurality of frames is displaying a cell value that alternates between G0 and G160 every frame.
Additionally, in the context of the current example, a luminosity for the portion of the second plurality of frames that is displaying the cell value of G160 over time (e.g. from T1 to T2) in a first phase prior to an adjustment is illustrated in 602; and a luminosity for the portion of the second plurality of frames that is displaying the cell value of G160 over time (e.g. from T1 to T2) in the first phase after the adjustment is illustrated in 604.
Furthermore, in the context of the current example, a luminosity for the portion of the second plurality of frames that is displaying the cell value of G160 over time (e.g. from T1 to T2) in a second phase prior to an adjustment is illustrated in 606; and a luminosity for the portion of the second plurality of frames that is displaying the cell value of G160 over time (e.g. from T1 to T2) in the second phase after the adjustment is illustrated in 608.
Thus, as illustrated in example 600, when the display device is operating in the three-dimensional mode, inverting the polarity of each of the cells of the display device every other frame may allow for the cells of the display device to be direct current balanced. Furthermore, utilizing a specific overdrive table for a phase associated with a particular frame may allow each cell to have a consistent luminosity for an entire duration of the frame.
