Solution Overview

Problem

Display panels face a challenge in achieving full-screen displays due to the need for a camera area, which results in diffraction light spots when light passes through the gaps between pixel units, compromising image quality and display effect.

Innovation Solution

Incorporating at least two image capturing regions in the display area with driving circuits and metal traces, and using image capturing components to capture images from these regions, processing them with an algorithm to eliminate diffraction light spots, thereby improving display quality.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Area of stationary object

If the camera area is used for display by arranging pixel units, then the screen proportion and aesthetic are improved, but diffraction light spots occur due to gaps between pixel units

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay areaVSAvoiddiffraction light spots
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The display area is segmented into multiple independent image capturing regions, each with its own pixel units arranged in arrays. By dividing the camera area into multiple regions (e.g., first and second image capturing regions), the patent enables display functionality while managing the diffraction issue through regional separation and independent control of pixel arrangements in each segment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If pixel units are arranged neatly in the camera area, then the display function is achieved, but slender gaps form between pixel units causing light diffraction

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedisplay functionVSAvoiddiffraction light spots
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

Different image capturing regions have different local characteristics - each region's pixel units are arranged with specific gap patterns that create different diffraction characteristics. The first image capturing region has pixel units with gaps producing certain diffraction light spots, while the second region has pixel units with different gap arrangements producing different diffraction patterns, allowing local optimization of display quality while managing diffraction effects.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Device complexity

If a single image capturing region is used, then the structure is simple, but diffraction light spots cannot be eliminated effectively

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovestructureVSAvoiddiffraction light spots
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple image capturing regions with different diffraction characteristics into a single display system. By combining the first and second image capturing regions, each with distinct pixel arrangements and diffraction patterns, the system achieves effective elimination of diffraction light spots through algorithmic processing that leverages the complementary nature of the different regions' optical characteristics.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
