An image display (A) comprises a display unit (1) such as a liquid crystal panel, a light source (3) such as a backlight, a light source control section (5), a video signal processing section (7) for outputting a signal for controlling the display unit according to an input signal (S1), and a control section (11) for controlling the whole including light source control and video control. The control section (11) has a video analyzing block (15) for analyzing the video on the basis of the input signal (S1), a target value setting block (17) for setting a target value of the intensity of the emission from the light source according to the analysis result (S2), and a controlled variable determining block (21) for determining the control speed of the light source in response to the target value (S3), sending the set luminance (S5) to the light source control section, and outputting a compensation parameter (S4) to the video signal processing section (7). On receiving the luminance set value (S5), the light source control section (5) outputs a light intensity control signal (S6) to the light source. With this, power consumption by image display is reduced, and a technique of displaying an image without any feeling of visual strangeness can be provided.

An image pick-up device for producing a synthesized image signal having a wide dynamic range by partially exchanging a plurality of image signals from a solid state image sensing element in an image synthesizing unit (41), said image signals being obtained by picking-up a subject moving on a bright background with different exposure amounts, including a synthetic unsuitable portion detecting unit (42, 44) for detecting a synthetic unsuitable portion by comparing said plurality of image signals picked-up with different exposure amounts, a synthetic unsuitable portion correcting unit (46, 48) for correcting a pixel signal of said synthesizing unsuitable portion to derived a corrected synthesized image signal, and a low pass filter (47) for combining said corrected synthesized image signal from said synthetic unsuitable portion correcting unit with said synthesized image signal from said image synthesizing unit to derive a corrected synthesized image signal. An image obtained from the corrected synthesized image signal is not influenced by the movement of the subject and does not cause any feeling of strangeness as compared with a conventional photographic image.

Disclosed is a display area control apparatus which alleviates the strangeness felt when a screen component takes time in being displayed. The display area control apparatus (100) is provided with a display unit (109); a data storage unit (107) that has data for displaying screen components stored therein; a screen-component reflection unit (105) that obtains data stored in the data storage unit (107), and reflects the obtained data onto the screen components; a screen-component state storage unit (106) that has the reflected state stored therein; a display area control unit (108) that determines the display area according to the reflected state; and a screen-component management unit (104) that displays data-reflected screen components on the display area, and conceals data-unreflected screen components.

An RFID tag is provided which does not give a user a feeling of strangeness even when contacting his / her body and is firmly attachable to a fabric such as clothes. The RFID tag is for wireless communications and includes a main antenna 30 formed by a conductive fiber, a loop antenna 12 electrically coupled to the main antenna 30 without direct conductive connection, a semiconductor device 20 electrically connected to a terminal 16 of the loop antenna 12, and a resin 28 collectively sealing the main antenna 30, the loop antenna 12, and the semiconductor device 20.
