Abstract

A low-resolution image is displayed at higher resolution and afterimages are reduced. Resolution is made higher by super-resolution processing. In this case, the super-resolution processing is performed after frame interpolation processing is performed. Further, in that case, the super-resolution processing is performed using a plurality of processing systems. Therefore, even when frame frequency is made higher, the super-resolution processing can be performed at high speed. Further, since frame rate doubling is performed by the frame interpolation processing, afterimages can be reduced.

Claims (26)

1. A method for driving a display device, comprising:

performing a frame interpolation processing;

performing a super-resolution processing after the frame interpolation processing; and

performing an overdrive processing after the super-resolution processing,

wherein the super-resolution processing is performed in a first part of a screen,

wherein the overdrive processing is performed in a second part of the screen, and

wherein the first part of the screen overlaps with the second part of the screen.

2. The method for driving a display device according to claim 1 , further comprising a step of performing converting an interlace image into a progressive image before the frame interpolation processing.

3. The method for driving a display device according to claim 1 , wherein the super-resolution processing is performed in a part of the screen.

4. The method for driving a display device according to claim 1 , wherein the overdrive processing is performed in a part of the screen.

5. The method for driving a display device according to claim 1 , wherein the overdrive processing is controlled in accordance with an amount of change generated by the super-resolution processing.

6. The method for driving a display device according to claim 1 , wherein the overdrive processing is controlled in accordance with an amount of change generated by the frame interpolation processing.

7. A method for driving a display device, comprising:

performing a frame interpolation processing;

performing a first super-resolution processing after the frame interpolation processing;

performing a second super-resolution processing; and

performing an overdrive processing after the first super-resolution processing and the second super-resolution processing,

wherein the frame interpolation processing and the second super-resolution processing are concurrently performed,

wherein the first super-resolution processing is performed in a first part of a screen,

wherein the overdrive processing is performed in a second part of the screen, and

wherein the first part of the screen overlaps with the second part of the screen.

8. The method for driving a display device according to claim 7 , further comprising a step of performing converting an interlace image into a progressive image before the frame interpolation processing.

9. The method for driving a display device according to claim 7 , wherein the first super-resolution processing is performed in a part of the screen.

10. The method for driving a display device according to claim 7 , wherein the overdrive processing is performed in a part of the screen.

11. The method for driving a display device according to claim 7 , wherein the overdrive processing is controlled in accordance with an amount of change generated by the first super-resolution processing.

12. The method for driving a display device according to claim 7 , wherein the overdrive processing is controlled in accordance with an amount of change generated by the frame interpolation processing.
