Patent ID: 8427400

Claim:
An image display device, comprising: a plurality of pixels each including a self-light-emitting element and a driver transistor for driving the self-light-emitting element, the driver transistor being driven in a saturation region; a plurality of signal lines through which an image voltage is input to the plurality of pixels; detection means for detecting a difference in characteristics between the self-light-emitting elements of two adjacent pixels among the plurality of pixels; a first calculation means for calculating a differential voltage between a reference voltage and the image voltage for the self-light-emitting element of the pixel that has been determined as a deteriorated self-light-emitting element by the detection means; a second calculation means for multiplying a result of calculation made by the first calculation means by a non-linear light emission correction amount; and a third calculation means for subtracting a result of calculation made by the second calculation means from the reference voltage to obtain a corrected image voltage.
