Abstract

A display device and a method of driving the same are provided. The method of driving the display includes a display area to display an image. The method includes performing a first first pixel shift driving by shifting an image by a first range in the display area without loss of image information due to enlargement or reduction of the image, checking whether a change of a block grayscale value is greater than or equal to a threshold in an interest area in the display area, and performing second pixel shift driving by shifting an image having the loss of image information.

Claims (47)

1. A method of driving a display device comprising a display area to display an image, the method comprising:

performing a first first pixel shift driving by shifting an image with enlargement or reduction of the image;

performing a second pixel shift driving by shifting the image without enlargement or reduction of the image when the image includes a scroll area, and

performing a second first pixel shift driving when the image does not include the scroll area.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second first pixel shift driving is performed after the second pixel shift driving is performed.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein:

in the first first pixel shift driving, the image shift starts at a first point and stops at a second point, and

in the second pixel shift driving, the image shift starts at the first point and stops at a third point.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein:

in the second first pixel shift driving, the image shift starts at the second point.

5. The method according to claim 1 ,

wherein in the first first pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in a first range, and

wherein in the second pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in the first range.

6. The method according to claim 5 ,

wherein in the second first pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in the first range.

7. The method according to claim 1 ,

wherein in the first first pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in a first range, and

wherein in the second pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in a second range smaller than the first range.

8. The method according to claim 7 ,

wherein in the second first pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in the first range.

9. The method according to claim 1 ,

wherein the scroll area includes at least one of a subtitle and text information.

10. A display device comprising:

a display area to display an image; and

a controller to control the image,

wherein the controller is to perform a first first pixel shift driving by shifting the image with enlargement or reduction of the image,

wherein the controller is to perform a second pixel shift driving by shifting the image without enlargement or reduction of the image when the image includes a scroll area, and

wherein the controller is to perform a second first pixel shift driving when the image does not include the scroll area.

11. The display device according to claim 10 ,

wherein the second first pixel shift driving is performed after the second pixel shift driving is performed.

12. The display device according to claim 11 , wherein:

in the first first pixel shift driving, the image shift is to start at a first point and to stop at a second point, and

in the second pixel shift driving, the image shift is to start at the first point and to stop at a third point.

13. The display device according to claim 12 , wherein:

in the second first pixel shift driving, the image shift is to start at the second point.

14. The display device according to claim 10 ,

wherein in the first first pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in a first range, and

wherein in the second pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in the first range.

15. The display device according to claim 14 ,

wherein in the second first pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in the first range.

16. The display device according to claim 10 ,

wherein in the first first pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in a first range, and

wherein in the second pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in a second range smaller than the first range.

17. The display device according to claim 16 ,

wherein in the second first pixel shift driving, the image is shifted in the first range.

18. The display device according to claim 10 ,

wherein the scroll area includes at least one of a subtitle and text information.
