Abstract
An driving method for a display panel, the display panel having a first resolution. The driving method comprises: converting RGB signals of an input image having a second resolution into YUV signals corresponding to an output image, a resolution of the output image being not smaller than the second resolution; converting the YUV signals into RGB signals corresponding to the output image; converting the RGB signals corresponding to the output image into driving signals for driving the display panel; and outputting the driving signals to the display panel. Display panels having the resolution of 10240×4320 can be driven by using the driving method.

A driving method for a display panel, the display panel having a first resolution, the driving method comprising:
- converting RGB signals of an input image having a second resolution into YUV signals corresponding to an output image, a resolution of the output image being not smaller than the second resolution;
- converting the YUV signals into RGB signals corresponding to the output image;
- converting the RGB signals corresponding to the output image into driving signals for driving the display panel;
- and
- outputting the driving signals to the display panel,
- wherein the converting the RGB signals of the input image having the second resolution into the YUV signals corresponding to the output image comprises:
- segmenting the input image into N sub-image, N being a positive integer;
- and
- converting RGB signals of each of the sub-images into a group of YUV signals, to obtain N groups of YUV signals,
- wherein, in a case where the input image cannot be segmented into N sub-images having a same resolution, the segmenting the input image into N sub-images comprises:
- segmenting the input image into N initial sub-images, the N initial sub-images including K first initial sub-images having a third resolution and (N-K) second initial sub-images having a fourth resolution, the third resolution being smaller than the fourth resolution, K being a positive integer and smaller than N;
- and
- inserting a predetermined number of blank pixels at a predetermined position of the first initial sub-images, an amount of the blank pixels being equal to a difference between the fourth resolution and the third resolution.
A driving apparatus for a display panel, the display panel having a first resolution, the driving apparatus comprising a processor and a transmission port, wherein the processor is configured to:
- convert RGB signals of an input image having a second resolution into YUV signals corresponding to an output image, a resolution of the output image being not smaller than the second resolution;
- convert the YUV signals obtained in the processor into RGB signals corresponding to the output image;
- and
- convert the RGB signals obtained in the processor into driving signals for driving the display panel,
- wherein the transmission port is configured to:
- output the driving signals obtained in the processor to the display panel,
- wherein the processor is configured to convert the RGB signals of the input image into YUV signals corresponding to the output image by:
- segmenting the input image into N sub-images, N being a positive integer;
- and
- converting RGB signals of each of the sub-images into a group of YUV signals, to obtain N groups of YUV signals,
- wherein, in a case where the input image cannot be segmented into N sub-images having a same resolution, the segmenting the input image into N sub-images comprises:
- segmenting the input image into N initial sub-images, the N initial sub-images including K first initial sub-images having a third resolution and (N-K) second initial sub-images having a fourth resolution, the third resolution being smaller than the fourth resolution, K being a positive integer and smaller than N;
- and
- inserting a predetermined number of blank pixels at a predetermined position of the first initial sub-images, an amount of the blank pixels being equal to a difference between the fourth resolution and the third resolution.
