Abstract

A display device with adjustable grayscale values and a display method thereof are provided. The display device includes a display panel, a communication interface, and a controller. The communication interface is used to receive display data of a display screen. The controller is electrically connected to the display panel and the communication interface, and is used to drive the display panel to display a display screen according to the display data. In response to the controller performing the flashbang assist function, the controller analyzes the display data to detect multiple grayscale values of multiple pixels in the display screen. In response to the controller detecting that the grayscale values of the pixels in the display screen are all higher than or equal to the first threshold, the controller adjusts the display data to reduce at least part of the grayscale values.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A display device with adjustable grayscale values, comprising:
a display panel; a communication interface, configured to receive a display data of a display screen; and a controller, electrically connected to the display panel and the communication interface, and configured to drive the display panel to display the display screen based on the display data, wherein in response to the controller performing a flashbang assist function, the controller analyzes the display data to detect a plurality of grayscale values of a plurality of pixels in the display screen, wherein in response to the controller detecting that the plurality of grayscale values of the plurality of pixels in the display screen are all higher than or equal to a first threshold, the controller adjusts the display data to reduce at least part of the plurality of grayscale values.

2 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein in response to the controller detecting that the plurality of grayscale values of the plurality of pixels in the display screen are all a first grayscale value, the controller adjusts the display data to reduce the plurality of grayscales of the plurality of pixels to a second grayscale value, wherein the first grayscale value is greater than the second grayscale value.

3 . The display device according to claim 2 , wherein the first grayscale value is 255, and the second grayscale value is 125.

4 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein in response to the controller detecting that the plurality of grayscale values of the plurality of pixels in the display screen are all higher than or equal to the first threshold, the controller adjusts the display data to roll off the plurality of grayscale values.

5 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first threshold is 180.

6 . The display device according to claim 1 , wherein in response to the controller detecting that a grayscale difference between any adjacent two of the plurality of pixels in the display screen is greater than a second threshold, the controller adjusts the display data to reduce the one with a higher grayscale value among the any adjacent two of the plurality of pixels in the display screen, so that the grayscale difference between any adjacent two of the plurality of pixels is less than a third threshold.

7 . The display device according to claim 6 , wherein the first threshold is greater than the second threshold and the third threshold, and the second threshold is greater than the third threshold.

8 . The display device according to claim 6 , wherein the second threshold is 125 and the third threshold is 50.

9 . The display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a five-way key, electrically connected to the controller, wherein in response to the five-way key being triggered, the controller performs the flashbang assist function.

10 . A display method with adjustable grayscale values, comprising:
receiving a display data of a display screen through a communication interface; in response to a controller performing a flashbang assist function, detecting a plurality of grayscale values of a plurality of pixels in the display screen through analyzing the display data by the controller; in response to the controller detecting that the plurality of grayscale values of the plurality of pixels in the display screen are all higher than or equal to a first threshold, reducing at least part of the plurality of grayscale values through adjusting the display data by the controller; and driving the display panel to display the adjusted display screen according to the adjusted display data through the controller.

11 . The display method according to claim 10 , wherein reducing at least part of the plurality of grayscale values through adjusting the display data by the controller comprises:
in response to the controller detecting that the plurality of grayscale values of the plurality of pixels in the display screen are all a first grayscale value, reducing the plurality of grayscale values of the plurality of pixels to a second grayscale value through adjusting the display data by the controller, wherein the first grayscale value is greater than the second grayscale value.

12 . The display method according to claim 11 , wherein the first grayscale value is 255, and the second grayscale value is 125.

13 . The display method according to claim 10 , wherein reducing at least part of the plurality of grayscale values through adjusting the display data by the controller comprises:
in response to the controller detecting that the plurality grayscale values of the plurality pixels in the display screen are higher than or equal to the first threshold, rolling off the plurality grayscale values though adjusting the display data by the controller.

14 . The display method according to claim 10 , wherein the first threshold is 180.

15 . The display method according to claim 10 , wherein reducing at least part of the plurality of grayscale values through adjusting the display data by the controller comprises:
in response to the controller detecting that a grayscale difference between any adjacent two of the plurality of pixels in the display screen is greater than a second threshold, reducing the one with a higher grayscale value among the any adjacent two of the plurality of pixels through adjusting the display data by the controller, so that the grayscale difference between the any adjacent two of the plurality of pixels is less than a third threshold.

16 . The display method according to claim 15 , wherein the first threshold is greater than the second threshold and the third threshold, and the second threshold is greater than the third threshold.

17 . The display method according to claim 15 , wherein the second threshold is 125 and the third threshold is 50.

18 . The display method according to claim 10 , further comprising:
in response to a five-way key being triggered, performing the flash flashbang assist function through the controller.
