Systems with reduced color lines at edges of associated display devices

1 . A system for reducing color lines at edges of a display, said system comprising:

a display comprising a peripheral region and a non-peripheral region, the non-peripheral region including at least a central image-displaying portion of the display, the peripheral region including at least one image-displaying edge portion of the display,

the peripheral region and the non-peripheral region comprising sub-pixels, wherein the sub-pixels disposed in the peripheral region have a brightness lower than that of the sub-pixels disposed in the non-peripheral region.

2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the sub-pixels disposed in the peripheral region are smaller than the sub-pixels disposed in the non-peripheral region.

3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the brightness of at least one of the sub-pixels in the peripheral region is 30%-70% of the brightness of at least one of the sub-pixels disposed in the non-peripheral region.

4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the sub-pixels in the peripheral region are covered by an opaque material layer.

5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the sub-pixels in the peripheral region are covered by a semi-opaque material layer.

6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the sub-pixels disposed in the peripheral region have a thickness larger than that of the sub-pixels disposed in the non-peripheral region.

7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the display is a liquid crystal display.

8 . The system of claim 7 , wherein the sub-pixels comprise a plurality of color filters, wherein the color filters in the peripheral region are different from the color filters in the non-peripheral region exhibiting the same color.

9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the color filters in peripheral region exhibit lower transmittance than the color filters in the non-peripheral region.

10 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the material for the sub-pixels disposed in the peripheral region has a transmittance lower than that of the sub-pixels disposed in the non-peripheral region.

11 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the sub-pixels comprise sub-pixels of three primary colors R, G and B.

12 . The system of claim 1 , wherein each of the sub-pixels arranged in a column are the same color.

13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the peripheral region comprises two opposing side edges of the display.

14 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the sub-pixels are electroluminescent display sub-pixels or plasma display sub-pixels.

15 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the sub-pixels in the non-peripheral region are electrically connected to a first driving voltage and the sub-pixels in the peripheral region are electrically connected to a second driving voltage different from the first driving voltage.

16 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

a control circuit electrically connected to the display and operative to control imaging of the display.

17 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

means for controlling imaging of the display.

18 . The system of claim 16 , further comprising:

an input device for providing input data to the display such that the display renders an image.

19 . A system for reducing color lines at edges of a display comprising:

a display comprising pixels, the pixels having sub-pixels arranged in a striped configuration such that sub-pixels of a first color are located in an outermost column of the sub-pixels, wherein a brightness of the sub-pixels of the outermost column is lower than a brightness of other sub-pixels located closer to a center of a display portion of the display.

20 . The system of claim 19 , further comprising:

means for visually obstructing at least a portion of the sub-pixels of the outermost column.
