Method for driving liquid crystal display with inserting gray image
View Patent ↗An exemplary method for driving a liquid crystal display includes: dividing a frame into a first sub-frame period and a second sub-frame period; displaying a normal image in the first sub-frame period; and displaying a gray image in the second sub-frame period. The gray image includes a plurality of pixels, and some of the pixels are black, and each of the pixels is black at least one time in a predefined minimum period, the minimum period being at least two consecutive frames.
