Abstract

The disclosure relates to an emissive display configured to operate in a day mode and a night mode. The emissive display comprises a day pixel configured to operate in the day mode. The emissive display also comprises a night pixel configured to operate in the night mode, wherein the night pixel is not operational in the day mode. The emissive display also comprises a common pixel configured to operate in both the day mode and the night mode. The emissive display also comprises a detector configured to selectively change an operating mode of the display between the day mode and the night mode based on a detected indication.

Claims (33)

1. An emissive display configured to operate in a day mode and a night mode, the display comprising:

a day pixel configured to operate in the day mode;

a night pixel configured to operate in the night mode, wherein the night pixel is not operational in the day mode;

a common pixel configured to operate in both the day mode and the night mode; and

a detector configured to selectively change an operating mode of the emissive display between the day mode and the night mode based on a detected indication;

wherein the common pixel is selected from the group consisting of a green pixel and a blue pixel.

2. The emissive display of claim 1 , wherein the display is an electroluminescent display.

3. The emissive display of claim 1 , wherein the display comprises an OLED display.
