Flat Panel Display Wide Aspect Ratio Multi-Image Layout
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing flat panel displays, such as liquid crystal displays, face inefficiencies when displaying multiple images on a single screen, leading to reduced utilization of the display surface and the need for scrollbars due to reduced image size and resolution.
Innovation Solution
A flat panel display system with a pixel array and a scalar board that converts image resolutions, allowing multiple images to be displayed simultaneously on one screen without scrollbars by adjusting the horizontal to vertical pixel ratio to 21.3-26.7:10, utilizing a data drive circuit, gate drive circuit, and control board to manage image placement and timing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If the size of images is increased to improve visibility, then image quality improves, but multiple images cannot be displayed simultaneously on one screen
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the aspect ratio parameter of the display screen from traditional values (4:3, 16:10) to a wide aspect ratio of 21.3:10 or greater. This parameter change enables the screen to accommodate multiple full-resolution images simultaneously while maintaining their original quality, resolving the contradiction between image quality and multi-image display capability.
2Productivity
If the number of simultaneously displayed images is increased, then multi-window functionality improves, but the display surface utilization is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
By changing the display screen's aspect ratio to 21.3:10 or wider, the patent creates sufficient horizontal space to display multiple full-size images without reducing their dimensions. This allows full utilization of the display surface while maintaining high multi-window functionality, eliminating the need for scrollbars and maximizing both productivity and area utilization.
3Measurement precision
If the resolution of each image is maintained, then image clarity is preserved, but the images must be reduced in size fitting multiple on one screen
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies a wide aspect ratio (21.3:10 or greater) to the display screen, which provides sufficient horizontal real estate to display multiple images at their full resolution without size reduction. This parameter change allows both image clarity and adequate image size to be maintained simultaneously when displaying multiple windows.
Data Source
AI summary
A flat panel display is disclosed. The flat panel display includes a display panel including data lines, gate lines crossing the data lines, pixels arranged in a matrix format, and a pixel array that allows images to be simultaneously displayed on one screen by suitably disposing the images on one screen, a data drive circuit supplying data to the data lines, a gate drive circuit supplying scan signals to the gate lines, a scalar board converting a resolution of each of the images, and a control board that supplies data received from the scalar board to the data drive circuit and controls operation timing of the data drive circuit and operation timing of the gate drive circuit. a ratio of a horizontal length to a vertical length of the pixel array is 21.3-26.7:10.
