Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of display technology, and in particular to a pixel arrangement structure for multiplexing 2D and 3D imaging displays, a virtual pixel arrangement structure, a display panel, and a display control method. Background Art

[0002] With the development of display technology, 3D display function has become an increasingly important feature in modern display applications. Traditional display panels usually use a regular RGB matrix pixel arrangement, that is, red, green, and blue sub-pixels are arranged in a fixed pattern to form a complete pixel. Although this traditional arrangement performs well in 2D display, it has many limitations when realizing 3D display function.

[0003] In traditional display panels, the regular matrix arrangement of RGB sub-pixels often results in obvious pixel graininess, which affects the viewing experience. In addition, the close arrangement of sub-pixels of different colors in the traditional arrangement method is prone to cross-color phenomenon, especially when displaying high-contrast images. These problems are more prominent when implementing 3D display functions, because the effective resolution is usually reduced by half when allocating left and right eye images.

[0004] In addition, in the prior art, switching between 2D and 3D display modes often requires complex signal processing and precise optical structures, which not only increases manufacturing costs but also reduces display efficiency.

[0005] At present, in order to meet the requirements of different polarized light for left and right eyes in 3D imaging, for display panels such as LED, left-handed and right-handed polarizing films are usually installed on the substrate, such as the reference patent "Integrated three-dimensional row and column LED display unit with the same resolution and its manufacturing method" with patent number CN111179770A, which pastes polarizing film on the surface of the display module, and the polarizing film has left-handed circular polarizing film and right-handed circular polarizing film arranged at intervals of pixel scale. When the human eye synthesizes images, the row and column resolutions are the same, which can match the row and column information and improve the display quality of the three-dimensional image. However, this technical solution still has problems such as complex polarizing film pasting.

[0006] Maintaining high image quality while switching between 2D and 3D display functions has always been an important technical challenge faced by the display industry. Therefore, research on display technology for multiplexing 2D and 3D imaging displays has become an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

[0007] In order to overcome the defects of the above-mentioned prior art, the present application provides a pixel arrangement structure, a virtual pixel arrangement structure, a display panel and a display control method for multiplexing 2D and 3D imaging displays, which are used to solve the problems of poor imaging resolution and high production cost.

[0008] The technical solution adopted in this application is: In a first aspect, the present application provides a pixel arrangement structure, including a first pixel array and a second pixel array, wherein the first pixel array and the second pixel array are both composed of a plurality of pixel groups arranged in sequence in a circular pattern, the pixel groups are composed of sub-pixels including three primary colors, and the sub-pixels of the pixel groups of the first pixel array and the pixel groups of the second pixel array are arranged in the same manner; the sub-pixels of the first pixel array and at least one sub-pixel of the same color of the second pixel array are adjacently arranged.

[0016] In a third aspect, the present application provides a display panel comprising a substrate and the above-mentioned pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure, wherein the pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure is arranged on the substrate, and the substrate is used to drive sub-pixels in the pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure to emit light.

[0017] In a fourth aspect, the present application provides a display control method, which performs display based on the above-mentioned display panel, and the display control method comprises the following steps: S1: Acquire image signal; S2: Determine whether the image signal is a 2D image signal or a 3D image signal. If the image signal is a 2D image signal, execute the 2D display mode of step S3; if the image signal is a 3D image signal, execute the 3D display mode of step S4; S3: splitting the 2D image signal into a first image signal and a second image signal, and forming the first image signal and the second image signal synchronously or time-divisionally through a display panel to form a 2D image; S4: Split the 3D image signal into a first parallax image signal and a second parallax image signal, and the first parallax image signal and the second parallax image signal are imaged synchronously or in time-sharing manner through a display panel to form a first parallax image and a second parallax image displayed in a spacing manner; wherein the first parallax image is a left-eye image and the second parallax image is a right-eye image; or, the first parallax image is a right-eye image and the second parallax image is a left-eye image.

[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] In this document, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more.

[0030] In addition, in this article, directional terms such as "upper" and "lower" are defined relative to the orientation of the structure schematically placed in the drawings. It should be understood that these directional terms are relative concepts. They are used for relative description and clarification, and they can change accordingly according to the change of the orientation of the structure.

[0031] In this article, "horizontal", "vertical" and "oblique", as well as "row" and "column" are relative concepts. For ease of understanding in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the "row" described in the embodiments of the present application is illustrated by the horizontal direction, that is, the "horizontal" described in the present application; the "column" is illustrated by the vertical direction, that is, the "vertical" described in the present application; and the "oblique" is set to form a non-90° angle with the "horizontal" and "vertical". However, when the direction of observation is different, the "horizontal", "vertical" and "oblique", as well as the "row" and "column" can be interchanged.

[0032] The present application provides a pixel arrangement structure, which includes a first pixel array and a second pixel array. The first pixel array and the second pixel array are both composed of a plurality of pixel groups arranged in a circular sequence. The pixel groups are composed of sub-pixels including three primary colors. The sub-pixels of the pixel groups of the first pixel array and the pixel groups of the second pixel array are arranged in the same manner. The sub-pixels of the first pixel array and at least one sub-pixel of the same color of the second pixel array are adjacently arranged.

[0033] Specifically, the sub-pixels of the same color in the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged adjacent to each other, so that the pixel groups in the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged in an alternating cycle.

[0034] In the present application, a pixel group includes a red sub-pixel (R), a green sub-pixel (G), and a blue sub-pixel (B).

[0035] Specifically, in some embodiments, a pixel group may be composed of one red, green, and blue sub-pixel each, and each sub-pixel is arranged in a straight line, or in an equilateral triangle, an isosceles triangle, or an unequal triangle.

[0036] In other embodiments, a pixel group may be composed of four sub-pixels, including one red, green, and blue sub-pixel each and one additional sub-pixel, such as 2 red sub-pixels, 1 blue sub-pixel, and 1 green sub-pixel, or 1 red sub-pixel, 2 blue sub-pixels, and 1 green sub-pixel, or 1 red sub-pixel, 1 blue sub-pixel, and 2 green sub-pixels. The sub-pixels may be arranged in a straight line, or in an equilateral triangle, an isosceles triangle, or an unequal triangle, or in a rectangle, square, rhombus, or other quadrilateral.

[0037] In other embodiments, the pixel group may be composed of more sub-pixels, including red, green, and blue sub-pixels, which may be arranged in a hexagon or other polygon, or in a nine-square grid or other form.

[0038] By arranging pixel groups in a circular pattern, the white light points formed by the RGB sub-pixels are arranged more evenly, avoiding visual pixel graininess.

[0039] Since the pixel groups of the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged in the same manner, and the sub-pixels of the same color are arranged adjacently, the pixel groups of the first pixel array and the second pixel array can form a staggered arrangement. Through the staggered arrangement, the distance between sub-pixels of different colors can be increased, the pixel color mixing within the unit panel size can be improved, the performance of curves and oblique lines can be improved, the color crosstalk between pixels can be reduced, and the power consumption of the entire display panel can be reduced at the same sub-pixel density.

[0040] Specifically, the sub-pixels of the first pixel array and the sub-pixels of the same color of the second pixel array may be arranged alternately and adjacently in a horizontal, vertical or oblique direction.

[0041] Combination Figures 1 to 4As shown, the present application provides an embodiment in which the sub-pixels of the first pixel array and the sub-pixels of the same color of the second pixel array are arranged alternately and adjacently in a horizontal, vertical or oblique direction, so as to illustrate the technical solution of the present application. Among them, Figures C-1 to Cn represent the first column to the nth column in the intercepted pixel arrangement structure, L-1 to LM represent the first row to the nth row in the intercepted pixel arrangement structure, R1, G1 and B1 represent the red sub-pixels, green sub-pixels and blue sub-pixels in the first pixel array, and R2, G2 and B2 represent the red sub-pixels, green sub-pixels and blue sub-pixels in the second pixel array. It should be noted that the number of columns and rows in the figure is only for the convenience of explaining the arrangement order in the example, and is not limited to the actual row and column arrangement order in the actual pixel arrangement structure.

[0042] Specifically, the sub-pixels may adopt light-emitting devices such as LED, CSP, OLED, or Mini / Micro LED light-emitting chips.

[0043] In some embodiments, the red sub-pixels, green sub-pixels, and blue sub-pixels in the first pixel array have the same wavelength as the corresponding red sub-pixels, green sub-pixels, and blue sub-pixels in the second pixel array. The same wavelength of the sub-pixels facilitates the use of light splitting and time-sharing technologies, and 3D imaging can be achieved by imaging in the first pixel array and the second pixel array respectively, and using polarization technology and combining polarized glasses.

[0044] In other embodiments, the wavelengths of the red sub-pixels, green sub-pixels, and blue sub-pixels in the first pixel array are close to but not the same as the corresponding red sub-pixels, green sub-pixels, and blue sub-pixels in the second pixel array. The present application sets the wavelengths of the corresponding sub-pixels to be close but not the same, which ensures that the colors are basically close on the one hand, and on the other hand, can utilize the color separation imaging technology of 3D imaging to separate the first pixel array and the second pixel array into images with different imaging wavelengths, and combine with color separation glasses to selectively filter the different wavelengths to achieve different imaging for the left eye and the right eye, and by combining the left and right eyes, 3D high-definition imaging can be achieved. In the present application, the wavelength deviation amplitude can be selected using the color separation 3D imaging technology in the prior art, and the present application does not make any special restrictions.

[0045] Example 1 Combination Figure 1 As shown, in Embodiment 1, a pixel arrangement structure scheme is provided in which sub-pixels of the same color are arranged alternately and vertically adjacently.

[0046] In the pixel arrangement structure provided in Example 1, sub-pixels of the same color are included in the same column, and the sub-pixels of the first pixel array and the sub-pixels of the same color of the second pixel array are arranged adjacently and alternately; in the same row, sub-pixels of different colors of the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged in sequence and cyclically, and the sub-pixels of the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged alternately.

[0047] Specifically, in column C-1, the red sub-pixels are arranged in an alternating arrangement of R2-R1-R2-R1-R2...; in row L-1, the RGB sub-pixels of the first pixel array and the RGB sub-pixels of the second pixel array are arranged in a cyclic arrangement of R2-B1-G2-R1-B2-G1...

[0048] In Embodiment 1, the first pixel array and the second pixel array may respectively form pixel groups in a triangular manner using the three primary colors of RGB, and may respectively form triangular pixel groups using two adjacent sub-pixels of different colors in the same row and another sub-pixel of different colors in the next row. For example, the R1 red sub-pixel in the L-2 row C-1 column, the B1 blue sub-pixel in the L-3 row C-2 column, and the G1 green sub-pixel in the L-2 row C-3 may form a triangular pixel group; the R2 red sub-pixel in the L-1 row C-1 column, the G2 green sub-pixel in the L-1 row C-3 column, and the B2 blue sub-pixel in the L-2 row C-2 may form a triangular pixel group.

[0049] Example 2 Combination Figure 2 As shown, in Embodiment 2, another pixel arrangement structure scheme is provided in which sub-pixels of the same color are arranged alternately and vertically adjacently.

[0050] In the pixel arrangement structure provided in Example 2, the same column includes sub-pixels of the same color, and the sub-pixels of the first pixel array and the sub-pixels of the same color of the second pixel array are arranged alternately adjacent to each other, and the sub-pixels of the same color of the two pixel arrays are vertically grouped as a group, and each group of sub-pixels is separated by two sub-pixel basic length units; the same row only includes sub-pixels of each color of the same pixel array, and sub-pixels of different colors are arranged in sequence and arranged cyclically, and each sub-pixel in the same row is separated by one sub-pixel basic length unit.

[0051] Specifically, in the C-1 column, the red sub-pixels are arranged in an alternating arrangement of R2-R1-empty-empty-R2-R1-...; in the L-1 row, the RGB sub-pixels of the second pixel array are arranged in a cyclic arrangement of R2-empty-G2-empty-B2-...; in the next row L-2, the RGB sub-pixels of the first pixel array are arranged in a cyclic arrangement of R1-empty-G1-empty-B1-...

[0052] In Embodiment 2, the first pixel array and the second pixel array may respectively form pixel groups in a triangular manner using the three primary colors of RGB, and may respectively form triangular pixel groups using two adjacent sub-pixels of different colors in the same row and another sub-pixel of different colors in the alternate row. For example, the R1 red sub-pixel in the L-2 row and C-1 column, the G1 green sub-pixel in the L-2 row and C-3 column, and the B1 blue sub-pixel in the L-4 row and C-2 column form a triangular pixel group; the R2 red sub-pixel in the L-1 row and C-1 column, the G2 green sub-pixel in the L-1 row and C-3 column, and the B2 blue sub-pixel in the L-3 row and C-2 column form a triangular pixel group.

[0053] Example 3 Combination Figure 3 As shown, in Embodiment 3, a pixel arrangement structure scheme is provided in which sub-pixels of the same color are alternately arranged adjacent to each other in the horizontal direction.

[0054] In the pixel arrangement structure provided in Example 3, the same-color sub-pixels of the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged adjacent to each other in the horizontal direction. In addition, in the same column, the same-color sub-pixels of the first pixel array or the second pixel array are arranged; in the same row, the different-color sub-pixels of the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged in sequence and arranged cyclically. In Example 3, in the same column, the sub-pixel color of the first pixel array is different from the sub-pixel color of the second pixel array.

[0055] Specifically, in row L-1, the RGB sub-pixels of the first pixel array and the RGB sub-pixels of the second pixel array are cyclically arranged in an alternating arrangement of R2-R1-G2-G1-B2-B1...; in column C-1, the sub-pixels are arranged in an alternating arrangement of R2-G1-R2-G1-R2-G1...

[0056] In Embodiment 3, the first pixel array and the second pixel array may respectively form pixel groups in a triangular manner using the three primary colors of RGB, and may respectively form triangular pixel groups using two adjacent sub-pixels of different colors in the same row and another sub-pixel of different colors in the next row. For example, the R1 red sub-pixel in the L-1 row and C-2 column, the G1 green sub-pixel in the L-1 row and C-4 column, and the B1 blue sub-pixel in the L-3 row and C-3 column form a triangular pixel group; the R2 red sub-pixel in the L-1 row and C-1 column, the G2 green sub-pixel in the L-1 row and C-3 column, and the B2 blue sub-pixel in the L-3 row and C-2 column form a triangular pixel group.

[0057] Moreover, in the pixel arrangement structure in Embodiment 3, the sub-pixels are arranged in alternate rows, that is, Figure 3As shown, each sub-pixel is arranged in the L-1 row, no sub-pixel is arranged in the L-2 row, and sub-pixels are arranged in the L-3 row. By arranging in alternate rows, the distances between each sub-pixel constituting a pixel group can be close to form a better light-emitting color rendering effect.

[0058] Example 4 Combination Figure 4 As shown, in Embodiment 4, a pixel arrangement structure scheme is provided in which sub-pixels of the same color are alternately arranged obliquely adjacent to each other.

[0059] In the pixel arrangement structure provided in Example 4, the sub-pixels of the same color in the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged adjacent to each other diagonally. Specifically, the adjacent sub-pixels of the same color may be arranged in a manner that the sub-pixels of the same color are offset by half a sub-pixel length unit in the horizontal or vertical direction.

[0060] Since adjacent sub-pixels of the same color in the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged obliquely, adjacent sub-pixels of the same color are not arranged in the same row or column.

[0061] Combination Figure 4 As shown, in Embodiment 4, for ease of understanding, the sub-pixels of the first pixel array are arranged vertically in columns from C-1' to C-n', and the sub-pixels of the second pixel array are arranged vertically in columns from C-1 to Cn. The C-1 column and the C-1' column are offset vertically by half a basic length unit of a sub-pixel.

[0062] In Example 4, sub-pixels of the same color of the first pixel array or the second pixel array are arranged in the same column of the first pixel array or the second pixel array, the sub-pixel sub-rows of the first pixel array and the second pixel array are arranged adjacent to each other and form a misalignment of half a basic length unit of the sub-pixel, and the respective sub-pixels in the same column of the first pixel array or the second pixel array are arranged at intervals of 3 rows.

[0063] Specifically, in the L-1 row, the RGB sub-pixels of the second pixel array are arranged in a cyclic arrangement of R2-empty-G2-empty-B2-empty-..., and in the L-2 row, the RGB sub-pixels of the first pixel array are arranged in a cyclic arrangement of R1-empty-G1-empty-B1-empty-...; in the C-1 column, the sub-pixels of the second pixel array are arranged in an alternating arrangement of R2-empty-empty-empty-R2-empty...; in C-1', the sub-pixels of the first pixel array are arranged in an alternating arrangement of R1-empty-empty-empty-R1-empty...

[0064] In Embodiment 4, the first pixel array and the second pixel array may respectively form pixel groups in a triangular manner using the three primary colors of RGB, and may respectively form triangular pixel groups using two adjacent sub-pixels of different colors in the same row and another sub-pixel of different colors in the alternate row. For example, the R1 red sub-pixel in the L-2 row C-2' column, the G1 green sub-pixel in the L-2 row C-4' column, and the B1 blue sub-pixel in the L-4 row C-3' column form a triangular pixel group; the R2 red sub-pixel in the L-2 row C-1 column, the G2 green sub-pixel in the L-1 row C-43 column, and the B2 blue sub-pixel in the L-3 row C-2 column form a triangular pixel group.

[0065] In the pixel arrangement structure in Example 4, sub-pixels of the same color are arranged in three rows, and sub-pixels of different colors are arranged in one column. Through the interval arrangement, the distances between the sub-pixels constituting the pixel group can be close to form a better luminous color rendering effect.

[0066] Based on the teachings of this application and the examples of Embodiments 1-4, other pixel arrangement forms may be adopted in other embodiments.

[0067] The present application also provides a virtual pixel arrangement structure, which is based on the pixel arrangement structure provided by the present application, wherein adjacent pixel groups in the first pixel array share at least one sub-pixel, and adjacent pixel groups in the second pixel array share at least one sub-pixel.

[0068] Combination Figures 1 to 4 On the basis of Embodiments 1 to 4, a virtual pixel arrangement structure can be realized, and a virtual pixel group is formed by multiplexing one or two of the red sub-pixels, the green sub-pixels, and the blue sub-pixels.

[0069] like Figure 1 In the figure, the red sub-pixel R1 in the L-12 row and C-7 column, the green sub-pixel G1 in the L-12 row and C-9 column, and the blue sub-pixel B1 in the L-13 row and C-8 column form a pixel group. At the same time, in a virtual pixel group, the red sub-pixel R1 in the L-12 row and C-7 column and the blue sub-pixel B1 in the L-13 row and C-8 column are reused to form a virtual pixel group with the green sub-pixel G1 in the L-13 row and C-6 column.

[0070] Based on the teachings of this application and Figure 1-4 In other embodiments, other virtual pixel arrangements may be used.

[0071] The present application also provides a display panel, which includes a substrate and the above-mentioned pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure, the pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure is arranged on the substrate, and the substrate is used to drive sub-pixels in the pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure to emit light.

[0072] Example 5 Combination Figure 5 As shown, in Embodiment 5, a display panel is provided, which includes a substrate 1 and the above-mentioned pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure, the pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure is arranged on the substrate 1, and the substrate 1 is used to drive the sub-pixels in the pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure to emit light. Among them, the pixel arrangement structure or virtual pixel arrangement structure includes a first pixel array 110 and a second pixel array 120, and the first pixel array 110 and the second pixel array 120 are arranged on the substrate 1 using the arrangement scheme provided in this application.

[0073] Specifically, the sub-pixel may be a light-emitting diode (LED) or other light-emitting device, which may be disposed on a substrate through chip-on-board (COB) packaging technology, surface mount technology (SMD) or other processes, and the substrate may drive the sub-pixel to emit light.

[0074] Example 6 Combination Figure 6 As shown, Example 6 provides a display panel that is further improved on the basis of Example 5.

[0075] In Example 6, the display panel includes, in addition to the substrate 1 , the first pixel array 110 and the second pixel array 120 , a polarizing film 2 , a half-wave plate film 3 and a quarter-wave plate film 4 .

[0076] The lower surface of the polarizing film 2 is attached to the surface of the substrate 1 , and the pixel arrangement structure or the virtual pixel arrangement structure is located between the substrate 1 and the polarizing film 2 to form the first linear polarized light for the light emitted by the sub-pixel 101 .

[0077] The half-wave plate film 3 is attached to the upper surface of the polarizing film 2. The half-wave plate film 3 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 301. The first through holes 301 are aligned with the sub-pixels 102 of the second pixel array 120. The half-wave plate film 3 is used to reverse the first linear polarized light of the polarizing film 2 to form a second linear polarized light.
