View Patent ↗A display unit includes: a display section including a plurality of pixels, each of the pixels including a plurality of light-emitting devices; an operation section that performs calculations for correcting drive signals to be inputted into the light-emitting devices of the pixels included in the display section in order to correct luminances and chromaticities of the pixels; and a coefficient data input section where a bit number of an element having smaller variations in coefficient in the display section, among elements of each of coefficient matrixes necessary for the correction calculations, the coefficient matrixes to be inputted into the operation section, is set to a value smaller than a bit number of an element having larger variations.
1. A display unit comprising:
a display section including a plurality of pixels, each of the pixels including a plurality of light-emitting devices;
an operation section that performs calculations for correcting drive signals to be input into the light-emitting devices of the pixels included in the display section in order to correct luminances and chromaticities of the pixels; and
a coefficient data input section that provides coefficient values of elements of matrix data to the operation section, said coefficient data input section handling coefficient values having different bit lengths and being set such that a number of bits of an element that corresponds to coefficient values with smaller variations among the elements of matrix data for the calculations is less than a number of bits of an element that corresponds to coefficient values with larger variations, wherein a number of bits of an element other than an element that is a diagonal component of each of the coefficient matrixes is set to a value smaller than a number of bits of the element that is the diagonal component.
2. The display unit according to claim 1 , wherein the matrix data to be input to the operation section includes three-by-three elements corresponding to one of the light-emitting devices included in the pixels, the light-emitting devices corresponding to three colors, the three colors being red, green, and blue.
3. The display unit according to claim 1 , further comprising a storage section that stores the elements of the matrix data in such a manner that the number of bits that are stored for each respective element corresponds to the number of bits that has been set in the coefficient data input section.
4. The display unit according to claim 1 , wherein the light-emitting devices included in the pixels of the display section are light-emitting diodes.
5. The display unit according to claim 1 , wherein the operation section is configured to perform calculations on an input signal of a first bit length with a correction coefficient of a second bit length that is different from the first bit length.
