Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional display devices suffer from diagonal aliasing and uneven color mixing of sub-pixels, resulting in a poor display effect due to suboptimal arrangement of sub-pixels, which affects the uniformity and sharpness of displayed images.

Innovation Solution

A display panel with pixel unit groups arranged in a matrix, where geometric centers of sub-pixels form specific virtual parallelograms to ensure uniform distribution and close proximity of third sub-pixels, improving color mixing and reducing the probability of color cast phenomena.

Solution Approach 1:

The pixel unit is segmented into multiple sub-pixels (first sub-pixels, second sub-pixels, and third sub-pixels) with different functions and positions. Each sub-pixel type has specific arrangement requirements forming different virtual parallelograms, allowing optimized color mixing and reduced aliasing while maintaining manageable device complexity through modular design.

AI summary

Provided are a display panel and a display device. The display panel includes pixel unit groups arranged in a matrix, where a row direction of the matrix is a first direction; in a same pixel unit group, geometric centers of two first sub-pixels and geometric centers of two second sub-pixels form a first virtual parallelogram, where the first virtual parallelogram includes two first sides extending along the first direction and two second sides extending along a second direction, and the second direction intersects and is not perpendicular to the first direction; a geometric center of one third sub-pixel is located inside the first virtual parallelogram, the other three third sub-pixels are located outside the first virtual parallelogram, and geometric centers of the four third sub-pixels form a second virtual parallelogram, where the second virtual parallelogram includes two third sides extending along the first direction, and two fourth sides extending along the second direction.
