Optionally, the number of light sources included in the light emitting assembly of the backlight partition can be one or more.

The distance from the first position to the light-emitting component of the first backlight partition refers to the length of the line segment starting from the first position and ending at the light-emitting component of the first backlight partition.

[0100] The process of determining the first expected brightness according to the first distance and the maximum brightness that can be emitted by the light-emitting component of the first backlight partition is similar to the process of determining the second expected brightness according to the second distance and the maximum brightness that can be emitted by the light-emitting component of the second backlight partition. The embodiment of the present application only takes the process of determining the first expected brightness according to the first distance and the maximum brightness that can be emitted by the light-emitting component of the first backlight partition as an example for explanation. Optionally, the process of determining the first expected brightness according to the first distance and the maximum brightness that can be emitted by the light-emitting component of the first backlight partition includes: determining the brightness ratio corresponding to the first distance; and taking the product of the brightness ratio and the maximum brightness that can be emitted by the light-emitting component of the first backlight partition as the first expected brightness.

[0101] The distance is negatively correlated with the brightness ratio. The greater the distance, the lower the brightness ratio corresponding to the distance. Conversely, the smaller the distance, the higher the brightness ratio corresponding to the distance. Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram of the correspondence between distance and brightness ratio provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0102] In step 402, the target backlight brightness of the backlight layer is determined according to the equivalent backlight brightness of each pixel.

[0103] In a possible implementation, the process of determining the target backlight brightness of the backlight layer according to the equivalent backlight brightness of each pixel includes: determining, according to the brightness of each image partition, a first number of image partitions whose brightness is higher than a first brightness threshold, a second number of image partitions whose brightness is lower than a second brightness threshold, and a third number of image partitions whose brightness is between the first brightness threshold and the second brightness threshold, wherein the first brightness threshold is higher than the second brightness threshold; when the first number and the second number are higher than the first number threshold, and the third number is lower than the first number threshold, determining a reference image partition in each image partition, and determining the average value of the equivalent backlight brightness of the pixels in the reference image partition as the target backlight brightness of the backlight layer. The brightness of the reference image partition is higher than the first brightness threshold. When at least one of the first number and the second number is not higher than the first number threshold, and / or the third number is not lower than the first number threshold, determining the average value of the equivalent backlight brightness of each pixel as the target backlight brightness of the backlight layer.

[0104] The first brightness threshold and the second brightness threshold are set based on experience, or adjusted according to the implementation environment, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this. For example, the first brightness threshold is 200 and the second brightness threshold is 100. The first quantity threshold is also set based on experience, or adjusted according to the implementation environment, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this. For example, the first quantity threshold is 50.

[0105] Optionally, the target backlight brightness of the backlight layer is determined according to the equivalent backlight brightness of each pixel according to the following formula (3).

[0106]

[0107] In the above formula (3), V BL is the target backlight brightness of the backlight layer. When the image is a high-contrast image, n is the total number of pixels included in the reference image partition, BL i is the equivalent backlight brightness of the i-th pixel included in the reference image partition. When the image is a non-high contrast image, n is the total number of pixels included in the image, BL i is the equivalent backlight brightness of the i-th pixel included in the image.

[0108] In step 403, the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel and the target brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel are determined according to the brightness of each pixel in the image and the target backlight brightness.

[0109] In a possible implementation, the process of determining the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel and the target brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel according to the brightness of each pixel in the image and the target backlight brightness includes: determining the overall backlight brightness of each pixel according to the brightness of each pixel in the image, the overall backlight brightness of the pixel is used to indicate the brightness required by the dimming module corresponding to the pixel and the brightness required by the backlight layer when the pixel is displayed; determining the quotient of the overall backlight brightness of each pixel and the target backlight brightness as the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel; determining the quotient of the brightness of each pixel and the overall backlight brightness of each pixel as the target brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel. The overall backlight brightness of a pixel refers to the product of the brightness required by the dimming module corresponding to the pixel and the brightness required by the backlight layer when the pixel is displayed.

[0110] Optionally, the process of determining the overall backlight brightness of each pixel according to the brightness of each pixel in the image includes: for the i-th pixel and the i+1-th pixel among the pixels, determining the maximum brightness and the average brightness of the brightness of the i-th pixel and the brightness of the i+1-th pixel; and determining the overall backlight brightness of the i-th pixel and the i+1-th pixel according to the maximum brightness and the average brightness of the brightness of the i-th pixel and the brightness of the i+1-th pixel, wherein i is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

[0111] For example, for the second pixel and the third pixel in each pixel, the brightness of the second pixel is 10, and the brightness of the third pixel is 20, then the maximum brightness of the determined brightness of the second pixel and the brightness of the third pixel is 20, and the average brightness is (10+20) / 2=15.

[0112] The process of determining the overall backlight brightness of the i-th pixel and the i+1-th pixel according to the maximum brightness and average brightness of the brightness of the i-th pixel and the brightness of the i+1-th pixel includes: determining the overall backlight brightness of the i-th pixel and the i+1-th pixel according to the maximum brightness, average brightness, maximum brightness weight and average brightness weight of the brightness of the i-th pixel and the brightness of the i+1-th pixel. The overall backlight brightness of the i-th pixel is the same as the overall backlight brightness of the i+1-th pixel.

[0113] Among them, the process of determining the overall backlight brightness of the i-th pixel and the i+1-th pixel based on the maximum brightness, average brightness, maximum brightness weight and average brightness weight of the brightness of the i-th pixel and the brightness of the i+1-th pixel is similar to the process of determining the brightness of any image partition based on the maximum brightness, average brightness, maximum brightness weight and average brightness weight of the pixels included in any image partition in the above steps, and the embodiments of the present application will not be repeated here.

[0114] In a possible implementation, the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel is determined according to the overall backlight brightness of each pixel and the target backlight brightness of the backlight layer according to the following formula (4).

[0115]

[0116] In the above formula (4), V sub is the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to the pixel, V dcell is the overall backlight brightness of the pixel, V BL The target backlight brightness of the backlight layer.

[0117] In a possible implementation, the target brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel is determined according to the brightness of each pixel and the overall backlight brightness of each pixel according to the following formula (5).

[0118]

[0119] In the above formula (5), V main is the target brightness of the display module corresponding to the pixel, V input is the brightness of the pixel, V dcell is the overall backlight brightness of the pixel.

[0120] After determining the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel and the target brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel, it is also necessary to determine the dimming module corresponding to each pixel and the display module corresponding to each pixel. Since the resolution of the image is the same as the resolution of the display layer, each pixel in the image corresponds to the display module located at the same position in the display layer. For example, the pixel in the first row and first column of the image corresponds to the display module in the first row and first column of the display layer. And the correspondence between the pixels in the image and the display modules in the display layer does not change with the change of the viewing angle.

[0121] The dimming module corresponding to each pixel is the dimming module corresponding to the display module corresponding to each pixel. The dimming layer is located behind the display layer, and the dimming layer is bonded to the display layer. Due to the bonding process, there is a certain bonding distance between the dimming layer and the display layer. When the viewing angle of the display screen is different and the bonding distance between the display layer and the dimming layer is different, the dimming module corresponding to the display module is different. The light output brightness of the display module and the dimming module corresponding to the display module after superposition may deviate from the ideal light output brightness. When the actual light output brightness is higher than the ideal light output brightness, a halo problem will occur. When the actual light output brightness is lower than the ideal light output brightness, color deviation and partial loss of the picture will occur. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the dimming module corresponding to the display module according to the gaze angle and the bonding distance, and then use the dimming module corresponding to the display module as the dimming module corresponding to the pixel corresponding to the display module. Then, when the image is displayed according to the target brightness of the display module corresponding to the pixel and the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to the pixel, the deviation of the actual light output brightness of the display module corresponding to the pixel and the dimming module corresponding to the pixel is avoided, thereby avoiding the problems of halo, color deviation and missing image content when the image is displayed.

[0122] like Figure 6 It is a schematic diagram of a color shift generation mechanism and color shift phenomenon provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 (1) is a schematic diagram of the color shift mechanism. When viewing the display screen, not all sub-pixels in the display module of the display layer correspond to the dimming module of the upper dimming layer. When the viewing angle is greater than 0, the blue sub-pixels in the display module correspond to the dimming module of the upper dimming layer. At this time, the display module is blue. When the viewing angle is less than 0, the red sub-pixels in the display module correspond to the dimming module of the upper dimming layer. At this time, the display module is red. Figure 6 (2) is a schematic diagram of a color cast phenomenon, wherein 601 is blue and 602 is red.

[0123] like Figure 7 It is a schematic diagram of a screen content missing mechanism, screen content missing phenomenon, and halo phenomenon provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 (1) in the figure is a schematic diagram of the mechanism of screen content loss, where white represents the highest brightness and black represents the lowest brightness. As can be seen from the figure, the bright display module corresponds to the dark dimming module, resulting in the actual light output brightness of the display module and the dimming module corresponding to the display module being far lower than the ideal light output brightness, resulting in the phenomenon of screen content loss. Figure 7 (2) in FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a phenomenon of missing screen content. On the contrary, when a dark display module corresponds to a bright dimming module, the actual light output brightness of the display module and the dimming module corresponding to the display module is higher than the ideal light output brightness, and a halo phenomenon will occur. Figure 7(3) in FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a halo phenomenon.

[0124] In a possible implementation, the process of determining the dimming module corresponding to a pixel includes: determining the dimming module offset number according to the gaze angle, the width of the dimming module, and the fitting distance between the display layer and the dimming layer, the dimming module offset number is used to indicate the offset number of the dimming module corresponding to any pixel when the display screen is viewed at the gaze angle; for the i-th pixel and the i+1-th pixel in each pixel, determining the dimming modules corresponding to the i-th pixel and the i+1-th pixel according to the i-th pixel, the i+1-th pixel, and the dimming module offset number, wherein i is an integer greater than or equal to 1. The dimming module corresponding to the i-th pixel is the same as the dimming module corresponding to the i+1-th pixel.

[0125] The dimming module offset amount is determined according to the following formula (6) based on the viewing angle, the width of the dimming module, and the fitting distance between the display layer and the dimming layer.

[0126]

[0127] In the above formula (6), ceil() represents rounding up, Δd is the distance between the display layer and the dimming layer, θ is the viewing angle, and sub pixel The width of the dimming module is set based on experience or adjusted according to the implementation environment, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0128] like Figure 8 : This is a schematic diagram of a dimming module corresponding to a pixel provided by an embodiment of the present application. Among them, the display layer displays four display modules, namely display module 0, display module 1, display module 2 and display module 3, and the dimming layer displays four dimming modules, namely dimming module 0, dimming module 1, dimming module 2 and dimming module 3. When the gaze angle is θ and the fitting distance between the display layer and the dimming layer is Δd, the dimming modules corresponding to display module 0 and display module 1 are dimming module 2 and dimming module 3, that is, the dimming modules corresponding to the pixels corresponding to display module 0 and the pixels corresponding to display module 1 are dimming module 2 and dimming module 3. Since the display module and the pixel are one-to-one corresponding and will not change with the change of the gaze angle and the fitting distance, the pixel corresponding to display module 0 is pixel 0, and the pixel corresponding to display module 1 is pixel 1, that is, the dimming modules corresponding to pixel 0 and pixel 1 are dimming module 2 and dimming module 3. The dimming modules corresponding to other pixels are similar and will not be repeated here.

[0129] In a possible implementation, before determining the offset amount of the dimming module according to the gaze angle, the width of the dimming module, and the fitting distance between the display layer and the dimming layer, it is necessary to first determine the gaze angle. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the method for determining the gaze angle. Optionally, the process of determining the gaze angle includes: collecting an image including the eye, analyzing the image including the eye, obtaining the spatial position of the eye and the position of the eye looking at the screen; determining the gaze angle according to the spatial position of the eye and the position of the eye looking at the screen.

[0130] The image including the eye is collected by means of a built-in image acquisition device on the display screen. The image acquisition device includes but is not limited to a camera. According to the spatial position of the eye and the position of the screen where the eye is looking at, the process of determining the gaze angle includes: determining the angle between the line segment between the spatial position of the eye and the position where the eye is looking at the screen and the first ray as the gaze angle. The starting point of the first ray is the position where the eye is looking at the screen, and the first ray is parallel to the longitudinal line of the display screen.

[0131] like Fig. 9 901 is a display screen, 902 is an image acquisition device, 903 is the spatial position of the eye, 904 is the position of the eye gazing at the screen, and θ is the gaze angle.

[0132] In step 404, an image is displayed according to the target backlight brightness, the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel, and the target brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel.

[0133] In one possible implementation, after the target backlight brightness of the backlight layer is determined in the above step 402 and the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel and the target brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel are determined in the above step 403, the brightness of the backlight layer is controlled to be the target backlight brightness, the brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel in the dimming layer is controlled to be the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel, and the brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel in the display layer is controlled to be the target brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel, so as to display the image on the display screen.

[0134] When displaying an image, the above method distributes the brightness of each pixel in the image to the backlight layer, the display module corresponding to each pixel, and the dimming module corresponding to each pixel. The backlight layer, the display module corresponding to the pixel, and the dimming module corresponding to the pixel jointly provide the brightness of the pixel, so that the backlight layer, the display layer, and the dimming layer jointly share the brightness of the image, thereby ensuring the display effect of the image while reducing the backlight brightness required to be provided by the backlight layer, thereby reducing the power consumption of the backlight layer when displaying the image, avoiding the problem of excessive surface temperature of the display screen, and thereby increasing the service life of the display screen.

[0135] Moreover, when determining the dimming module corresponding to the pixel, the viewing angle and the fitting distance between the display layer and the dimming layer are taken into consideration, so that the dimming module corresponding to the determined pixel is more accurate. Therefore, when the image is displayed according to the target backlight brightness, the target brightness of the dimming module corresponding to each pixel, and the target brightness of the display module corresponding to each pixel, there will be no problem of the displayed brightness deviating from the pixel brightness, and there will be no color cast, missing image content and halo problems, which can further improve the display effect of the image.

[0153] To summarize, in the embodiments of the present application, when displaying an image, the brightness of each pixel in the image is distributed to the backlight layer, the display module corresponding to each pixel, and the dimming module corresponding to each pixel. The brightness of the pixel is jointly provided by the backlight layer, the display module corresponding to the pixel, and the dimming module corresponding to the pixel, so that the backlight layer, the display layer, and the dimming layer share the brightness of the image together, thereby ensuring the display effect of the image while reducing the backlight brightness required to be provided by the backlight layer, thereby reducing the power consumption of the backlight layer when displaying the image, avoiding the problem of excessive surface temperature of the display screen, and thereby increasing the service life of the display screen.
