Abstract

According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a display panel on which a first pixel including a first light emitting element which emits light of a first color, a second pixel including a second light emitting element which emits light of a second color, and a third pixel including a third light emitting element which emits light of a third color are arranged, and an imaging device receiving light through the display panel. At least one of the first to third pixels which overlap with the imaging device in planar view is arranged with an interval different from an interval of the first to third pixels which do not overlap with the imaging device in planar view.

Claims (24)

1 . An electronic apparatus comprising:

a display panel on which a first pixel including a first light emitting element which emits light of a first color, a second pixel including a second light emitting element which emits light of a second color, and a third pixel including a third light emitting element which emits light of a third color are arranged; and

an imaging device receiving light through the display panel, wherein

at least one of the first to third pixels which overlap with the imaging device in planar view is arranged with an interval different from an interval of the first to third pixels which do not overlap with the imaging device in planar view.

2 . The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein

the first to third pixels which do not overlap with the imaging device in planar view are arranged side by side in order of the first to third pixels to be adjacent to each other in a first direction, and

the first to third pixels which overlap with the imaging device in planar view are arranged side by side in a first direction to be spaced apart with an interval of at least one pixel.

3 . The electronic apparatus of claim 2 , wherein

the first to third pixels which overlap with the imaging device in planar view are arranged in the same order as an order of the first to third pixels which do not overlap with the imaging device in planar view.

4 . The electronic apparatus of claim 2 , wherein

the first to third pixels which overlap with the imaging device in planar view are arranged in an order different from an order of the first to third pixels which do not overlap with the imaging device in planar view.

5 . The electronic apparatus of claim 2 , wherein

a position of at least one of the first to third pixels which overlap with the imaging device in planar view is different from positions of the other pixels of the first to third pixels in a second direction which intersects the first direction.

6 . The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein

a size of an area in planar view occupied by at least one of the first to third pixels which overlap with the imaging device in planar view is smaller than a size of an area in planar view occupied by the other pixels of the first to third pixels.

7 . The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein

the first to third pixels which do not overlap with the imaging device in planar view are arranged such that the first and second pixels are adjacent to each other in a second direction, the first and third pixels are adjacent to each other in a first direction intersecting the second direction, and the second and third pixels are adjacent to each other in the first direction, and

the first to third pixels which overlap with the imaging device in planar view are arranged such that at least the first and second pixels, the first and third pixels, or the second and third pixels are not adjacent to each other.

8 . The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein

the first to third pixels which overlap with the imaging device in planar view are arranged side by side in order of the first to third pixels to be adjacent in a first direction, and a position of at least one of the first to third pixels is different from positions of the other pixels of the first to third pixels in a second direction which intersects the first direction.

9 . A display device comprising:

a display panel on which a first pixel including a first light emitting element which emits light of a first color, a second pixel including a second light emitting element which emits light of a second color, and a third pixel including a third light emitting element which emits light of a third color are arranged; and

a drive circuit driving the display panel, wherein

at least one of the first to third pixels which overlap with an imaging device receiving light through the display panel, in planar view, is arranged with an interval different from an interval of the first to third pixels which do not overlap with the imaging device in planar view.
