Patent ID: RE40953

Claim:
A method for displaying an image on a light-emitting diode display, the display having a first set of light-emitting diodes capable of emitting light having a first set of at least four chromaticities, method comprising: identifying at least a first light-emitting diode from said first set capable of emitting light having at least one chromaticity for which an operating parameter is to be minimized; identifying a first region of chromaticity with a boundary available through operation of said at least one light-emitting diode and a first subset of said first set of light emitting diodes capable of emitting light having a first subset of chromaticities; identifying a second region of chromaticity with a second boundary available through operation of a second subset of light emitting diodes capable of emitting light having a second subset of chromaticities; specifying a desired color; determining whether the desired color resides within the second boundary; generating the desired color using the second set of light-emitting diodes if the desired color resides within the second boundary, thereby minimizing said operating parameter; and generating the desired color using said at least one light-emitting diode and the second set of light-emitting diodes if the desired color does not reside within the second boundary.
