Abstract

Claims (48)

1. A display apparatus comprising a display portion in which a first arrangement pattern and a second arrangement pattern are repeatedly arranged in this order in a first direction,

wherein in the first arrangement pattern, a first subpixel, a second subpixel, and a third subpixel are repeatedly arranged in this order in a second direction,

wherein in the second arrangement pattern, a fourth subpixel and a first region are repeatedly arranged in this order in the second direction,

wherein the first subpixel, the second subpixel, the third subpixel, and the fourth subpixel each comprise a light-emitting device,

wherein the first region comprises a light-receiving device, and

wherein an aperture ratio of the first region is lower than aperture ratios of the first to fourth subpixels.

2. The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein a longitudinal direction of each of the first subpixel, the second subpixel, and the third subpixel is the first direction.

3. The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein a longitudinal direction of the fourth subpixel is the second direction.

4. The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the third subpixel emits infrared light and has a higher aperture ratio than the first subpixel, the second subpixel, the fourth subpixel, and the first region.

5. The display apparatus according to claim 4 ,

wherein one of the first subpixel and the second subpixel emits red light,

wherein the other of the first subpixel and the second subpixel emits green light,

wherein the fourth subpixel emits blue light, and

wherein the first region senses at least infrared light.

6. The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the fourth subpixel emits infrared light and has a higher aperture ratio than the first to third subpixels and the first region.

7. The display apparatus according to claim 6 ,

wherein one of the first subpixel and the second subpixel emits red light,

wherein the other of the first subpixel and the second subpixel emits green light,

wherein the third subpixel emits blue light, and

wherein the first region senses at least infrared light.

8. The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first subpixel comprises a region in which a distance to an adjacent subpixel is less than or equal to 3 μm.

9. The display apparatus according to claim 8 ,

wherein the first subpixel comprises a region in which a distance to an adjacent subpixel is less than 1 μm.

10. An electronic device comprising:

the display apparatus according to claim 1 ; and

a processing portion,

wherein the display apparatus is configured to capture an image with the use of the first region, and

wherein the processing portion is configured to sense one or more selected from blinking, movement of an iris, and movement of an eyelid of a user, with the use of image data obtained with the display apparatus.

11. An electronic device comprising:

at least two display apparatuses according to claim 1 ;

a housing provided with the display apparatuses; and

a battery that is provided for the housing and supplies electric power to the display apparatuses,

wherein the housing comprises a mounting portion and a pair of lenses,

wherein an image from one of the two display apparatuses is projected on one of the pair of lenses, and

wherein an image from the other of the two display apparatuses is projected on the other of the pair of lenses.

12. The electronic device according to claim 11 , further comprising a processing portion provided for the housing,

wherein the display apparatus is configured to capture an image with the use of the first region, and

wherein the processing portion is configured to sense one or more selected from blinking, movement of an iris, and movement of an eyelid of a user, with the use of image data obtained with the display apparatus.

13. The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the fourth subpixel is in a first row where the first subpixel is arranged and a second row where the second subpixel is arranged.

14. The display apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first subpixel, the second subpixel, and the third subpixel are not included in the second arrangement pattern, and

wherein the fourth subpixel and the first region are not included in the first arrangement pattern.
