Patent ID: 10573253

Abstract:
According to an aspect, a display apparatus includes a segment necessary luminance calculator, a segment necessary luminance corrector, and a light emission amount calculator. The segment necessary luminance calculator creates segment necessary luminance data indicating the luminance necessary for each of light-emitting segments in accordance with image data. The segment necessary luminance corrector corrects the segment necessary luminance data for each of light-emitting blocks according to the highest luminance of one or a plurality of light-emitting segments included in each light-emitting block, in accordance with control data for dividing a light-emitting region and a display region into a plurality of blocks and the segment necessary luminance data. The light emission amount calculator calculates the amount of light emission from the light-emitting segments in accordance with the segment necessary luminance data corrected by the segment necessary luminance corrector and outputs a light emission amount control signal to the light emitter.
