Alternatively, if the display data is video data published on a website, the website may be the content provider of the display data.

[0214] Step 302: Control the display device to display based on the display data.

[0215] After acquiring the display data, the display device may control the display of the display device based on the display data.

[0216] For example, as shown in Figure 5, Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of an image displayed in a display area of ​​a display device in the embodiment shown in Figure 4, wherein an image is displayed in the display area q1, and the display area q1 displays the logo b1 of the content provider of the image. When the content provider is a TV station, the logo b1 can be the logo of the TV station. When the content provider is a website, the logo b1 can be the icon of the website.

[0217] Step 303: Detect whether there is a target pixel in the display area of ​​the display device.

[0218] In an exemplary embodiment, when displaying display data, the display device may detect whether a target pixel exists in at least one corner region of the display area. The corner region is a region including a vertex of the display area. For example, when the display area is rectangular, the regions including the four vertices of the rectangle are the four corner regions.

[0219] As shown in FIG. 5 , the corner areas in the display area may include a corner area q11 , a corner area q12 , a corner area q13 , and a corner area q14 in the display area shown in FIG. 5 .

[0220] The applicant has discovered that when a display device is displaying data, the logo of the content provider of the display data will be displayed for a long time in the corner area of ​​the display area of ​​the display device, and the brightness of the content provider logo may be relatively high. In this case, the risk of "burn-in" in the area where the content provider logo is located will be very high. In view of this situation, the display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be used to reduce the brightness of the pixels displaying the logo to reduce the abnormal display of these pixels.

[0221] Specifically, in step 303, the presence of a target pixel can be detected in at least one corner area of ​​the display area. Compared to detecting the presence of a target pixel in the entire display area, this solution can reduce the detection range, thereby increasing detection speed and reducing computational complexity.

[0222] In the embodiment of the present application, a variety of methods can be used to detect whether a target pixel exists in a corner area. For example, FIG6 is a flowchart of detecting whether a target pixel exists in the embodiment shown in FIG4. Referring to FIG6, step 303 includes:

[0223] Sub-step 3031: Determine whether there is a bright pixel in a first corner area of ​​at least one corner area whose brightness reaches a specified brightness within a specified period of time.

[0224] Among them, the first corner area can be any corner area of ​​multiple corner areas in the display area. The size of the corner area can be set in advance. In an exemplary embodiment, the sizes of multiple logos in the display area can be obtained, and the size of the corner area is determined based on the area occupied by the logo with the largest size in the display image. For example, 100 display images with different logos can be obtained (the display image can be the image displayed in the display area), where the station logo A is the logo with the largest size, then the area occupied by the external graphic of the area occupied by the station logo A in the display image can be determined as the corner area, or, the maximum coordinates of 100 different logos in the x direction and y direction (the x direction can be the row direction of multiple pixels arranged in rows and columns, and the y direction can be the column direction) can be selected, and the two maximum coordinates can be used to determine the corner area.

[0225] The display device can determine whether there is a bright pixel whose brightness reaches a specified brightness within a specified time period in a first corner area of ​​at least one corner area. Herein, a bright pixel may refer to a pixel whose brightness reaches a specified brightness within a specified time period, and the specified time period may be a time period before the current moment. Exemplarily, the specified time period may be a time period between the current moment and 5 minutes before the current moment. In addition, the pixel involved in the embodiment of the present application may refer to a light-emitting unit in a display device, and the display device may include a plurality of pixels arranged in rows and columns, and the area where the plurality of pixels arranged in rows and columns are located may constitute a display area of ​​the display device, and these plurality of pixels may display different colors and different brightness changes so that the display device can display various images. In addition, the pixel may refer to a pixel in a display device for displaying a certain color, and the pixel may include a plurality of sub-pixels, or the pixel may also refer to a sub-pixel, and the sub-pixel may include a blue sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, a red sub-pixel, and a white sub-pixel, etc.

[0226] In the embodiment of the present application, the display device can determine whether the brightness of the pixels in the first corner area reaches the specified brightness within the specified time period in a variety of ways.

[0227] For example, the display device may determine as a bright pixel a pixel whose brightness is always greater than or equal to a specified brightness during the specified period; or a pixel whose average brightness during the specified period is greater than a specified brightness as a bright pixel; or a pixel whose brightness during the specified period is greater than a specified brightness for a specified duration (the specified duration may be 1 / n of the specified period, such as 1 / 2 to 1 / 10). Alternatively, the display device may determine as a bright pixel a pixel that meets at least two of the above three criteria.

[0228] In addition, the specified brightness can be determined based on the properties of the display device itself. For example, the display device can be pre-aged (when a pixel has a ghost image, it can be considered that the pixel has obvious aging phenomenon) to test at which brightness the pixels in the display device age faster, and the brightness is determined as the specified brightness. In an embodiment of the present application, the brightness can be represented by a grayscale, and the grayscale can be recorded in the display data obtained by the display device. For example, if it is found through testing that the pixels in the display device age faster at a grayscale of 200, the grayscale of 200 can be determined as the specified brightness. Of course, the specified brightness can also be determined in other ways, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.

[0229] In general, the bright pixel may be a pixel with high comprehensive brightness within a specified time. Such a pixel ages quickly and is prone to color difference and brightness difference with other adjacent pixels.

[0230] In addition, the brightness involved in the embodiments of the present application may also be the brightness of the light beam actually emitted by the pixel, and the unit may be nit. The brightness may be obtained by setting a sensor outside the display device.

[0231] Sub-step 3032: In response to the presence of bright pixels in the first corner area, determine the proportion of the number of bright pixels in the first corner area.

[0232] When bright pixels are present in the first corner region, the display device may obtain a ratio of the number of bright pixels in the first corner region. For example, if the first corner region includes 1000 pixels and the number of bright pixels in the first corner region is 500, the ratio is one-half.

[0233] Sub-step 3033: In response to the ratio value being within the target ratio range, determining the bright pixel in the first corner area as the target pixel.

[0234] In the embodiment of the present application, the target pixel can be considered to be a pixel in the display area used to display the logo, and the display device will attenuate the brightness of the target pixel. The applicant has discovered that the proportion of the logo in the corner area is within a certain range, neither too large nor too small. Based on this, the display device can determine that the bright pixel in the first corner area is the target pixel when the proportion value determined in the above step is within the target proportion range.

[0235] This can avoid determining some pixels that are not in the logo as target pixels.

[0236] Sub-step 3034: In response to the ratio value not being within the target ratio range, determining that the bright pixel in the first corner area is not a target pixel.

[0237] If the ratio value is less than the minimum value of the target ratio range, it indicates that there are only a small number of scattered and non-blocked bright pixels in the first corner area. The impact of this situation is small, and this part of the pixels can be not determined as target pixels; if the ratio value is greater than the maximum value of the target ratio range, it indicates that there are large areas of high-brightness pixels in the corner area, which may be the content normally displayed in the display data rather than an identification. In this case, the display device may not determine this part of the pixels as target pixels to avoid affecting normal display.

[0238] In the display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the target ratio range can be determined in a variety of ways. In an exemplary embodiment, FIG7 is a flow chart of determining the target ratio range in the embodiment shown in FIG4 . Referring to FIG7 , before sub-step 3033 , the display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may include:

[0239] Step 303a: Acquire a specified number of reference display images.

[0240] Steps 303a to 303c of determining the target ratio range may be performed by a ratio range determination device, which may be an independent device such as a computer, a server, or the like, or may be the display device involved in the above-mentioned embodiment, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0241] Each reference display image includes an identifier of the content provider of the reference display image. The specified number of reference display images can be screenshots of display data provided by multiple different content providers during display. The screenshots can include the actual display content, such as an image of a specific moment in a comedy video, movie, or variety show, and the identifier located in a corner area of ​​the image.

[0242] The specified number can be pre-set, such as 20 to 100, specifically 20, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, or 100. The specified number of reference display images can include screenshots of display data from various current mainstream content providers, such as major TV stations and video platforms.

[0243] Step 303b: Obtain a reference proportion value of the corner area marked in the display area in each reference display image.

[0244] The proportion range determining device may respectively determine a reference proportion value occupied by the corner area marked in the display area in each reference display image in a specified number of reference display images.

[0245] When determining the reference ratio value, the ratio range determining device may first obtain the region where the marker is located in each reference display image, and then determine the reference ratio value based on the ratio of the size of the region to the size of the corner region.

[0246] The proportional range determining device may determine the area where the mark is located in the reference display image in a variety of ways:

[0247] In one solution, the proportion range determination device can use image recognition technology to identify the area where the logo is located in the reference display image. Specifically, it can first obtain the logos of multiple content providers (which may include current mainstream content providers, such as multiple TV stations at various levels, multiple video websites, etc.), and then search for graphics that match the shapes of these logos in the reference display image, and determine the area where the matching graphics are located as the area where the logo is located in the reference display image.

[0248] In another solution, the area where the logo is located can be manually marked in the reference display image.

[0249] Step 303c: determine a target ratio range based on the maximum and minimum values ​​of the reference ratio values.

[0250] The ratio range determining device may determine the target ratio range based on the maximum value and the minimum value of the reference ratio values ​​of the multiple reference display images determined in the above steps. For example, the maximum value of the multiple reference ratio values ​​may be determined as the maximum value of the target ratio range, and the minimum value of the multiple reference ratio values ​​may be determined as the minimum value of the target ratio range. Alternatively, the ratio range determining device may multiply the maximum value of the multiple reference ratio values ​​by a preset coefficient (e.g., 1.1 to 1.5) to obtain the maximum value of the target ratio range, and multiply the minimum value of the multiple reference ratio values ​​by a preset coefficient (e.g., 1.1 to 1.5) to obtain the minimum value of the target ratio range.

[0251] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, steps 303a to 303c are only limited to be executed before sub-step 3033, but no other restrictions are placed on the execution time of steps 303a to 303c, and steps 303a to 303c may not belong to step 303. Exemplarily, steps 303a to 303c may be executed before step 301, step 302 or step 303, or after step 301, or after step 302, or steps 303a to 303c may be executed simultaneously with step 301, or steps 303a to 303c may be executed simultaneously with step 302.

[0252] When there is no target pixel in the display area, the display device may continue to execute step 303 .

[0253] Step 304 : In response to the presence of a target pixel in the display area, obtain brightness data of the target pixel in a specified time period.

[0254] The display device may acquire brightness data of each target pixel in a specified period when the target pixel exists in the display area. The brightness data may be brightness data reflecting the comprehensive brightness of the target pixel in the specified period.

[0255] The process of the display device acquiring the brightness data may include:

[0256] 1) Get the brightness of the target pixel in each frame within a specified period of time.

[0257] The display device may first obtain the brightness of the target pixel for each frame within a specified time period. For example, if the specified time period is 100 seconds and the frame rate is 20 frames per second, the display device may obtain 2000 brightness levels for 2000 frames within the 100 seconds. The brightness levels may be grayscale, for example, 2000 brightness levels represent 2000 grayscale levels.

[0258] Of course, in order to reduce the amount of calculation, the display device may also obtain less brightness. For example, the brightness of a portion of frames (such as 1 frame) may be extracted from multiple frames per second.

[0259] 2) Determine brightness data based on the brightness of each frame.

[0260] The display device may determine brightness data based on the brightness of each frame within a specified time period. For example, the average brightness of these multiple frames may be used as the brightness data. The average brightness may be an arithmetic mean, a geometric mean, a square mean, a weighted mean, or any other average. Of course, the display device may also select some brightness values ​​(e.g., randomly selected, or selected according to a predetermined rule) from the brightness values ​​of each frame within a specified time period to determine the brightness data, and this embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0261] The brightness data may be in grayscale.

[0262] Step 305: Determine an attenuation factor corresponding to the brightness data in a preset lookup table based on the brightness data.

[0263] The lookup table may include a plurality of brightness data and an attenuation factor corresponding to each brightness data. Since the brightness data may be grayscale, the lookup table may record a correspondence between a plurality of grayscales and attenuation factors.

[0264] The lookup table can be determined in advance through testing. For example, pre-testing can be performed to obtain the speed at which pixels age and exhibit afterimages at each grayscale, so as to determine the attenuation factor corresponding to each grayscale. For example, the higher the grayscale, the faster the pixels age and exhibit afterimages, and the larger the corresponding attenuation factor can be, that is, the grayscale can be positively correlated with the attenuation factor.

[0265] In addition, the corresponding relationship may be expressed as a brightness attenuation curve. The brightness attenuation curve may be located in a rectangular coordinate system. In the rectangular coordinate system, the x-axis may be the grayscale, and the y-axis may be the attenuation factor.

[0266] In the method provided in the embodiments of the present application, each display device may have a corresponding lookup table, or display devices from the same batch may have a corresponding lookup table, or all display devices may correspond to a single lookup table, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. When multiple display devices correspond to a single lookup table, the attenuation factor corresponding to each grayscale can be determined by combining the speed of aging and image sticking of the multiple display devices at each grayscale.

[0267] Step 306: Determine the attenuated brightness of the target pixel based on a preset formula.

[0268] After obtaining the brightness data reflecting the integrated brightness of the target pixel in a specified period and the attenuation factor corresponding to the brightness data, the display device can determine the attenuated brightness of the target pixel based on the brightness data, the attenuation factor, and a preset formula. The preset formula may include:

[0269] e=d*a*b;

[0270] Wherein, e is the attenuated brightness, d is the current brightness of the target pixel, that is, the brightness of the target pixel before the brightness is reduced, b is the brightness data of the target pixel in the specified time period obtained in the above step, and a is the attenuation factor corresponding to b.

[0271] Of course, the display device may also determine the attenuated brightness in other ways. For example, for any grayscale, a fixed difference may be reduced. If the grayscale of a pixel is less than the difference, the grayscale of the pixel may be reduced to 0.

[0272] Step 307: Reduce the brightness of the target pixel to the attenuated brightness.

[0273] After determining the attenuated brightness of a target pixel, the display device can reduce the brightness of the target pixel to the attenuated brightness. This reduces the brightness of the target pixel, preventing the target pixel from being exposed to high brightness for a long time, which can cause rapid aging and image sticking. This can extend the life of the target pixel and improve the display quality of the display device.

[0274] The display device can control the brightness of each determined target pixel using the method provided in the embodiment of the present application.

[0275] Subsequent steps are optional.

[0276] Step 308: Determine whether the image displayed in the display area is a static image. If it is a static image, execute step 309. If it is not a static image, execute step 310.

[0277] The display device may further determine whether the picture displayed in the display area is a static picture.

[0278] Exemplarily, the display device may compare the brightness data of each frame, and when the brightness data are close, determine that the picture displayed in the display area is a static picture; when not close, determine that the picture displayed in the display area is not a static picture.

[0279] Step 309: Reduce the overall brightness of the display area.

[0280] In response to the image displayed in the display area being a static image, the display device may further reduce the overall brightness of the display area to eliminate the regional sense generated when the brightness of a target pixel is individually reduced, thereby improving the user experience.

[0281] Step 310: Do not reduce the overall brightness of the display area.

[0282] In response to the fact that the picture displayed in the display area is not a static picture, the display device may not reduce the overall brightness of the display area.

[0283] In summary, the display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application solves the problem of high risk of display abnormality of the display device in the related art by detecting whether there is a target pixel in the display area of ​​the display device, where the target pixel includes at least some bright pixels whose brightness reaches a specified brightness within a specified time period; and when the target pixel exists in the display area, reduces the brightness of the target pixel to avoid the target pixel maintaining high brightness for a long time and failing to emit light normally, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the risk of display abnormality of the display device.

[0284] FIG8 is a flowchart of another display control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The display control method can be used for the display device shown in FIG1 or FIG2 . The display control method can include the following steps:

[0285] Step 401: Obtain display data.

[0286] When applying the display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the display device can obtain display data, which may include various data such as image data and video data.

[0287] The display data may be display data acquired by the display device from an external device, or may be display data generated by the display device itself, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0288] The display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be specifically applied to a control component in a display device, that is, the control component can be used to obtain display data.

[0289] In an exemplary embodiment, the display data may be provided by a content provider, and the display data may include an identifier of the content provider. It should be noted that the content provider may not be the direct provider of the display data, but rather the provider of the content included in the display data. For example, if the display data is display data of an interview program provided by a television station, the television station may be considered the content provider of the display data. Alternatively, if the display data is video data published on a website, the website may be the content provider of the display data.

[0290] Step 402: Control the display device to display based on the display data.

[0291] After acquiring the display data, the display device may control the display of the display device based on the display data.

[0292] This step can refer to step 302 in the embodiment shown in FIG4 , and will not be described in detail in this embodiment of the present application.

[0293] Step 403: Determine whether there is a bright pixel whose brightness reaches a specified brightness within a specified period of time in a first corner area of ​​the at least one corner area. If there is a bright pixel, execute step 404; otherwise, execute step 403.

[0294] In an embodiment of the present application, the display device may first detect whether there are bright pixels in the corner regions of the display area. A bright pixel may be a pixel whose brightness reaches a specified brightness within a specified period of time, where the specified period of time may be a period before the current moment. The corner regions are regions including the vertices of the display area. For example, if the display area is rectangular, the regions including the four vertices of the rectangle are the four corner regions.

[0295] When there is a bright pixel, the display device may continue to perform subsequent steps. When there is no bright pixel, the display device may continue to perform step 403 to continue to detect whether there is a bright pixel in subsequent display data.

[0296] A display device may detect the presence of a bright pixel in a variety of ways.

[0297] The first option:

[0298] 1) Obtain the average brightness of the first pixel in the first corner area within a specified time period, where the specified time period is the time period before the current moment.

[0299] The first pixel may be any pixel in the first corner area. The display device may obtain the brightness of the first pixel in each frame within a specified time period and use the average brightness of each frame as the average brightness. The average brightness may be an arithmetic mean, a geometric mean, a square mean, a weighted mean, or other average values.

[0300] 2) When the average brightness is greater than or equal to the specified brightness, the first pixel is determined to be a bright pixel.

[0301] The display device may determine that the first pixel is a bright pixel when the average brightness determined in the above step is greater than or equal to a specified brightness. The specified brightness may be determined based on the properties of the display device itself. For example, the display device may be pre-tested for aging (when a pixel exhibits image sticking, it may be considered that the pixel has exhibited significant aging) to test at which brightness the pixels in the display device age most rapidly, and the specified brightness may be determined based on the brightness. The specified brightness may be expressed as a grayscale.

[0302] The average brightness can more accurately reflect the comprehensive brightness of the first pixel within a specified period of time. Therefore, the solution of determining bright pixels by the average brightness can improve the accuracy of the method provided in the embodiment of the present application when determining bright pixels.

[0303] Second option:

[0304] 1) Obtain the lowest brightness of the first pixel in the first corner area within a specified time period.

[0305] In this manner, the display device can obtain the lowest brightness of the first pixel in the first corner area within a specified time period.

[0306] 2) When the minimum brightness is greater than or equal to the specified brightness, the first pixel is determined to be a bright pixel.

[0307] The display device may determine that the first pixel is a bright pixel when the minimum brightness is greater than or equal to the specified brightness. For example, if the display device obtains that the minimum brightness of the first pixel within the specified time period is 210 grayscales and the specified brightness is 200 grayscales, the first pixel may be determined to be a bright pixel.

[0308] Since the brightness of the marker usually does not change, this method of determining bright pixels by using the minimum brightness can improve the accuracy of the method provided in the embodiment of the present application when determining bright pixels.

[0309] The third option:

[0310] 1) Obtaining a duration during which the brightness of a first pixel in a first corner area is greater than or equal to a specified brightness within a specified time period.

[0311] In this manner, the display device may determine whether the first pixel is a bright pixel based on the duration during which the brightness of the first pixel within a specified period is greater than or equal to a specified brightness.

[0312] 2) When the brightness of the first pixel within the specified time period is greater than or equal to the specified brightness for a duration greater than or equal to the specified duration, the first pixel is determined to be a bright pixel.

[0313] The display device may determine that the first pixel is a bright pixel when the brightness of the first pixel within the specified time period is greater than or equal to the specified brightness for a period greater than or equal to the specified time period. The specified time period may be pre-set, and illustratively, the length of the specified time period may be 1 / 2 to 1 / 5 of the specified time period.

[0314] This approach can avoid mistakenly determining as bright pixels some pixels whose brightness is much higher than the specified brightness only in some time periods but lower than the specified brightness in more time periods, thereby improving the accuracy of the method provided in the embodiment of the present application in determining bright pixels.

[0315] The method provided in the embodiment of the present application can determine whether the first pixel is a bright pixel through at least one of the above three schemes. For example, when two or three schemes are applied, the first pixel can be determined to be a bright pixel when the first pixel meets the requirements of the two schemes at the same time.

[0316] In addition, the method for determining bright pixels provided in the embodiment of the present application can also be applied to other embodiments provided in the present application.

[0317] Step 404: Determine the ratio of the number of bright pixels in the first corner area.

[0318] In response to the presence of bright pixels in the first corner area, the display device can determine the proportion of the number of bright pixels in the first corner area. This step can refer to sub-step 3032 in the embodiment shown in Figure 4 above, and will not be repeated in this embodiment of the present application.

[0319] Step 405: In response to the ratio value being within the target ratio range, determine whether the image displayed in the display area is a static image. If the image displayed in the display area is not a static image, execute step 406; if the image displayed in the display area is a static image, execute step 408.

[0320] In response to the ratio value being within the target ratio range, the display device may begin to determine whether the image displayed in the display area is a static image. For details regarding the target ratio range, reference may be made to steps 303a to 303c in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 , and this embodiment of the present application will not be further elaborated herein.

[0321] As shown in FIG9 , FIG9 is a flowchart of determining whether a picture displayed in a display area is a static picture provided by an embodiment of the present application. The process may include:

[0322] Sub-step 4051: Acquire first brightness data of a current frame set of the display device.

[0323] The display device may obtain first brightness data of a current frame set, where the current frame set is a set including at least one frame of the current frame. The first brightness data may be an average of brightness data of all frames in the current frame set.

[0324] Sub-step 4052: Acquire second brightness data of a historical frame set of the display device.

[0325] The display device can obtain the second brightness data of the historical frame set, which is a set of at least one frame before the current frame. The frames included in the historical frame set may overlap with the frames included in the current frame set, or may not overlap. The embodiment of the present application does not limit this. For example, if the current frame is the nth frame, the current frame set may include the nth frame, the n-1th frame, and the n-2th frame, and the historical frame set may include the n-1th frame, the n-2th frame, and the n-3th frame, so that there is overlap. Alternatively, the historical frame set may include the n-3th frame, the n-4th frame, and the n-5th frame, so that there is no overlap.

[0326] In the embodiment of the present application, after obtaining the second brightness data, the display device may determine a specified brightness threshold based on the second brightness data, where the specified brightness threshold is the product of the second brightness data and the target ratio range.

[0327] Optionally, the target ratio range is 1 / 64 to 1 / 32.

[0328] Sub-step 4053: In response to the difference between the first brightness data and the second brightness data being smaller than a specified brightness threshold, determining that the image displayed in the display area is a static image.

[0329] That is, the definition of static picture in this application does not refer to a static picture in a strict sense, but may refer to a picture that is basically static.

[0330] It should be noted that the first brightness data, the second brightness data, and the specified brightness threshold can all be represented by grayscale. For example, the first brightness data can be grayscale 200, the second brightness data can be grayscale 210, and the specified brightness threshold can be grayscale 20. If the difference between the first brightness data and the second brightness data is 10, which is less than the specified brightness threshold, it can be determined that the image displayed in the display area is a static image.

[0331] Correspondingly, in response to the difference between the first brightness data and the second brightness data being greater than or equal to the specified brightness threshold, it is determined that the picture displayed in the display area is not a static picture.

[0332] Step 406: Determine the bright pixel as the target pixel.

[0333] In response to the image displayed in the display area not being a static image, the display device may determine bright pixels as target pixels. That is, when the image displayed in the display area is not a static image, in order to reduce the impact of brightness attenuation, the display device may only determine bright pixels as target pixels.

[0334] Step 407: Reduce the brightness of the target pixel.

[0335] In response to the presence of the target pixel in the display area, the display device can reduce the brightness of the target pixel. The method of reducing the brightness of the target pixel can refer to steps 304 to 307 in the embodiment shown in Figure 4, and the embodiment of the present application will not be repeated here.

[0336] Step 408: Reduce the overall brightness of the display area.

[0337] In response to the fact that the image displayed in the display area is a static image, the display device can reduce the overall brightness of the display area. Since the display device displays a static image, even if the brightness of the entire screen is reduced, it will not have a significant impact on the display effect, and can achieve the effect of reducing the risk of display abnormalities of the display device.

[0338] In summary, the display control method provided in the embodiment of the present application solves the problem of high risk of display abnormality of the display device in the related art by detecting whether there is a target pixel in the display area of ​​the display device, where the target pixel includes at least some bright pixels whose brightness reaches a specified brightness within a specified time period; and when the target pixel exists in the display area, reduces the brightness of the target pixel to avoid the target pixel maintaining high brightness for a long time and failing to emit light normally, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the risk of display abnormality of the display device.

[0339] FIG10 is a flowchart of another display control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The display control method may be used for the control component in the display device shown in FIG1 or FIG2 . The display control method may include the following steps:

[0340] Step 601: Obtain display data.

[0341] This step can refer to step 701 in the embodiment shown in FIG8 , and will not be described in detail in this embodiment of the present application.

[0342] Step 602: Control the display device to display based on the display data.

[0343] This step can refer to step 402 in the embodiment shown in FIG8 , and will not be described in detail in this embodiment of the present application.

[0344] Step 603: Determine whether the picture displayed in the display area is a static picture. If it is not a static picture, execute step 604; if it is a static picture, execute step 607.

[0345] In the embodiment of the present application, the display device may first determine whether the image displayed in the display area is a static image. For details on how to determine whether the image displayed in the display area is a static image, please refer to step 405 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 8 , and this embodiment of the present application will not be further described here.

[0346] Step 604: Determine whether there is a bright pixel in the first corner area of ​​the display area whose brightness reaches the specified brightness within the specified time period. If there is a bright pixel, execute step 605; if not, execute step 603.

[0347] In response to the image displayed in the display area not being a static image, the display device may begin to determine whether there are bright pixels in the display area whose brightness reaches a specified brightness within a specified period of time. This step can be referred to as step 403 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 8 above, and will not be further described in this embodiment of the present application.

[0348] Step 605: Determine the ratio of the number of bright pixels in the first corner area.

[0349] In response to the presence of bright pixels in the display area, the display device can determine the proportion of the number of bright pixels in the first corner area. This step can refer to step 404 in the embodiment shown in Figure 8 above, and will not be repeated in this embodiment of the present application.

[0350] Step 606 : In response to the ratio value being within the target ratio range, determine the bright pixel in the first corner area as the target pixel.

[0351] When the ratio of the number of bright pixels in the first corner area falls within a target ratio range, the display device may determine that the bright pixel in the first corner area is the target pixel.

[0352] Step 607: Reduce the brightness of the target pixel.

[0353] The display device may reduce the brightness of the pixel determined as the target pixel. The specific reduction method can refer to steps 304 to 307 in the embodiment shown in FIG4 above, and will not be repeated in this embodiment of the present application.

[0354] Step 608: Reduce the overall brightness of the display area.

[0355] In response to the fact that the image displayed in the display area is a static image, the display device can reduce the overall brightness of the display area. Since the display device displays a static image, even if the brightness of the entire screen is reduced, it will not have a significant impact on the display effect, and can achieve the effect of reducing the risk of display abnormalities of the display device.
