Color display device with a non-rectangle display
A color display device includes a display area where a non-rectangular display range is determined. Pixels of which a display color is set to a mixed color formed by adjusting brightness of sub-pixels having a plurality of different single-colors are arranged within the display area. In addition, parts of the pixels subjected to non-coloring drive and display are arranged so as to extend to the contour of the display area.
1. A color display device including a display area where a non-rectangular display range is determined, the color display device comprising:
a plurality of display pixels each including a plurality of sub-pixels, a display color of the respective display pixels being set to a mixed color formed by adjusting a brightness of the sub-pixels of the display pixels, the sub-pixels of the display pixels having a plurality of different single light-emitting colors being arranged within the display area; and
a plurality of contour pixels each including a plurality of sub-pixels, each of said sub-pixels of the contour pixels being subjected to non-coloring drive and display, the contour pixels being arranged along the contour of an outer perimeter of the display area, and at least portions of a plurality of the sub-pixels of the contour pixels being arranged outside the outer perimeter of the display area without being shielded by a light-shielding member.
2. The color display device according to claim 1 , wherein the contour pixels subjected to the non-coloring drive and display each include an achromatic color filter.
3. The color display device according to claim 1 , wherein the contour pixels subjected to the non-coloring drive and display each have no color filter.
4. The color display device according to claim 1 , wherein the brightness of the sub-pixels of the contour pixels subjected to the non-coloring drive and display is made substantially equal to that of adjacent chromatic sub-pixels of the display pixels.
