DISPLAY DEVICE AND SYSTEM
According to one embodiment, a display device includes a display panel having a display area where an image is displayed, a plurality of cameras provided at positions overlapping with the display area in plan view to capture a user opposed to the display device as a subject, a controller selecting one of the plurality of cameras as a camera to capture the subject, based on positions of eyes of a person included in the image displayed in the display area.
1 . A display device comprising:
a display panel having a display area where an image is displayed;
a plurality of cameras provided at positions overlapping with the display area in plan view to capture a user opposed to the display device as a subject; and
a controller selecting one of the plurality of cameras as a camera to capture the subject, based on positions of eyes of a person included in the image displayed in the display area.
2 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein
the controller selects a camera located between right and left eyes of the person included in the image displayed in the display area, of the plurality of cameras, as the camera to capture the subject.
3 . The display device of claim 2 , wherein
the controller selects a camera closest to a midpoint of a straight line connecting the right and left eyes of the person included in the image displayed in the display area, of the plurality of cameras, as the camera to capture the subject.
4 . The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a communication unit communicating with an external device, wherein
the controller:
selects one of the plurality of cameras as the camera to capture the subject, based on positions of eyes of a user of the external device included in the image transmitted from the external device; and
transmits the image including the subject and captured by one of the plurality of cameras, to the external device.
5 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein
the controller:
specifies a position of a face of the subject, using one of the plurality of cameras; and
selects a camera provided at a position intersecting with a virtual line extending perpendicularly from a position between right and left eyes of a face of the specified subject to the display panel, as a camera to capture the subject.
6 . The display device of claim 5 , further comprising:
a communication unit communicating with an external device, wherein
the controller transmits an image including the subject and captured by the camera provided at the position intersecting with the virtual line, to the external device.
7 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein
the plurality of cameras are arranged at regular intervals.
8 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein
the plurality of cameras include a plurality of first cameras arranged at a first density and a plurality of second cameras arranged at a second density lower than the first density.
9 . The display device of claim 8 , wherein
the plurality of first cameras are opposed to a central area of the display area, and
the plurality of second cameras are opposed to a surrounding area which surrounds the central area of the display area.
10 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein
the display area includes a first area and a second area divided in a first direction, and
the plurality of cameras are opposed to the first area and are not opposed to the second area.
11 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein
the display panel is a display panel including self-luminous display elements.
12 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein
the display panel includes a plurality of sub-pixels, and
the sub-pixels and the plurality of cameras are alternately arranged in plan view.
13 . The display device of claim 1 , wherein
the display panel includes a plurality of sub-pixels,
the plurality of sub-pixels includes a first sub-pixel and a second sub-pixel adjacent to the first sub-pixel, and
one of the plurality of cameras is located between the first sub-pixel and the second sub-pixel in plan view.
14 . A display device comprising:
a display panel having a display area where an image is displayed;
a plurality of cameras provided at positions overlapping with the display area in plan view; and
a controller selecting one of the plurality of cameras as a camera to capture a subject, based on a predetermined position included in the image displayed in the display area.
15 . The display device of claim 14 , wherein
the plurality of cameras are arranged at regular intervals.
16 . The display device of claim 14 , wherein
the plurality of cameras include a plurality of first cameras arranged at a first density and a plurality of second cameras arranged at a second density lower than the first density.
17 . The display device of claim 16 , wherein
the plurality of first cameras are opposed to a central area of the display area, and
the plurality of second cameras are opposed to a surrounding area which surrounds the central area of the display area.
18 . The display device of claim 14 , wherein
the display area includes a first area and a second area divided in a first direction, and
the plurality of cameras are opposed to the first area and are not opposed to the second area.
19 . The display device of claim 14 , wherein
the display panel includes a plurality of sub-pixels,
the plurality of sub-pixels includes a first sub-pixel and a second sub-pixel adjacent to the first sub-pixel, and
one of the plurality of cameras is located between the first sub-pixel and the second sub-pixel in plan view.
20 . A system including a first display device used by a first user and a second display device used by a second user, and allowing the first display device and the second display device to be communicatively connected to each other, wherein
the first display device comprises:
a first display panel having a first display area where an image is displayed;
a plurality of first cameras provided at positions overlapping with the first display area in plan view to capture the first user; and
a first controller selecting one of the plurality of first cameras as a camera to capture the first user, based on positions of eyes of the second user included in the image displayed in the first display area, and transmitting the image including the first user captured by the selected camera to the second display device, and
the second display device comprises:
a second display panel having a second display area where an image is displayed;
a plurality of second cameras provided at positions overlapping with the second display area in plan view to capture the second user; and
a second controller selecting one of the plurality of second cameras as a camera to capture the second user, based on positions of eyes of the first user included in the image displayed in the second display area, and transmitting the image including the second user captured by the selected camera to the first display device.
