Patent ID: 8446435

Claim:
A display device comprising: a first pixel and a second pixel; the first pixel including: a first sub-pixel pair of a red sub-pixel and a green sub-pixel; and a second sub-pixel pair of a blue sub-pixel and a green sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel pair being adjacent to the first sub-pixel pair; the second pixel including a third sub-pixel pair of a red sub-pixel and a green sub-pixel, the third sub-pixel pair being adjacent to the second sub-pixel pair; wherein in the first pixel and the second pixel, a product of an aperture area per sub-pixel and a light amount per unit aperture area, in each of the red sub-pixel and the blue sub-pixel, is approximately two times that of the green sub-pixel; an image signal input into the red sub-pixel of the first sub-pixel pair is obtained by averaging a red image signal for the first sub-pixel pair and a red image signal for the second sub-pixel pair; an image signal input into the blue sub-pixel of the second sub-pixel pair is obtained by averaging a blue image signal for the second sub-pixel pair and a blue image signal for the third sub-pixel pair; and image signals input into the green sub-pixel of the first sub-pixel pair, the green sub-pixel of the second sub-pixel pair, and the green sub-pixel of the third sub-pixel pair are green image signals for the first sub-pixel pair, the second sub-pixel pair, and the third sub-pixel pair, respectively.
