Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A liquid crystal display includes: a light source section including emission subsections; a LCD panel including pixels each having sub-pixels for four colors of R, G, B, and Z, and modulating light from the emission subsections based on input image signals for three colors of R, G, and B; and a display control section including a partitioning-drive processing section, driving the emission subsections with an emission pattern signal, and driving the four sub-pixels with partitioning-drive image signals for the four colors. The partitioning-drive processing section generates pixel signals for the four colors through performing a first color-conversion based on the input image signals, generates the emission pattern signal from pixel signals for the three colors, primary partitioning-drive image signals for the three colors from both the input image signals and the emission pattern signal, and the partitioning-drive image signals through performing a second color-conversion on the primary partitioning-drive image signals.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A liquid crystal display comprising: a light source section including a plurality of emission subsections each controlled independently; a liquid crystal display panel including a plurality of pixels each having a red (R)-sub-pixel, a green (G)-sub-pixel, a blue (B)-sub-pixel, and a Z-sub-pixel, the Z-sub-pixel exhibiting a color of Z with luminance higher than that of the R-, G-, and B-sub-pixels, the liquid crystal display panel modulating light emitted…
