1Area of stationary object
If sub-pixels are arranged in conventional configurations to maximize display area, then display area is increased, but image quality and resolution deteriorate due to component placement interference
Solution Approach 1:
The pixel area is divided into multiple sub-pixels (first sub-pixels, second sub-pixels, third sub-pixels) with different arrangements and functions. This segmentation allows each sub-pixel group to be optimized independently - some for image display and others for component placement, thereby maintaining high image quality while maximizing display area utilization.
Solution Approach 2:
Different regions of the pixel area are assigned different qualities and functions. The first sub-pixels are arranged to optimize image display quality, while the second and third sub-pixels are positioned to accommodate components. Transmission areas are strategically placed in specific local regions to allow component placement without compromising overall image quality.
2Adaptability or versatility
If transmission areas are added to allow component placement, then component integration is improved, but image quality deteriorates due to light transmission interference
Solution Approach 1:
Transmission areas are placed in specific local regions where they do not interfere with the main image display areas. The first sub-pixels maintaining conventional arrangements ensure high image quality, while transmission areas are strategically positioned to allow component placement only in regions where light transmission is acceptable or compensated for.
Solution Approach 2:
The display area is segmented into regions with different functions: areas with high image quality requirements (first sub-pixels), areas with component placement requirements (transmission areas), and hybrid regions (second and third sub-pixels). This segmentation allows transmission areas to be integrated without compromising the image quality in critical display regions.
3Adaptability or versatility
If sub-pixels are arranged to accommodate components, then component placement flexibility is improved, but display area utilization deteriorates due to spacing requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The pixel area is segmented into multiple functional zones: first sub-pixels for primary display, second sub-pixels for component accommodation, third sub-pixels for additional flexibility, and transmission areas for component placement. This segmentation enables efficient space utilization by assigning specific functions to specific regions, maximizing overall display area utilization while providing component placement flexibility.
Solution Approach 2:
The arrangement moves beyond conventional two-dimensional sub-pixel layouts by incorporating vertical layering and multi-directional spacing (first direction, second direction, diagonal directions). This dimensional approach allows components to be placed in previously unusable spaces, improving component placement flexibility without sacrificing display area utilization.
4Manufacturing precision
If conventional pixel arrangements are used to maintain image quality, then image quality is preserved, but component placement options are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The pixel area is divided into multiple sub-pixel groups with different arrangements: first sub-pixels maintain conventional configurations for image quality, while second and third sub-pixels are arranged to provide component placement options. Transmission areas are added in specific regions to further expand component placement possibilities without compromising the image quality provided by the first sub-pixels.
Solution Approach 2:
The display apparatus is designed with multi-functionality: the same pixel area serves both high-quality image display (through first sub-pixels) and component placement (through second sub-pixels, third sub-pixels, and transmission areas). This universal design allows the display apparatus to simultaneously achieve image quality preservation and enhanced component placement options.
