Abstract
A display apparatus and a controlling method thereof provides an optimal viewing environment to a user by differently applying image processing parameters related to image processing time according to content types of input images. A display apparatus according to an embodiment includes an input interface receiving an input image; and a controller configured to determine an image processing parameter based on characteristics of the input image, and control an image processing time for the input image to be determined in response to the determined image processing parameter.
Claims12
A display apparatus, comprising:
- an input interface configured to receive an input image;
- and
- a controller configured to determine an image processing parameter based on at least one characteristic of the input image, control an image processing time for the input image in response to the determined image processing parameter, and generate an interpolation frame based on the image processing parameter,
- wherein the image processing parameter related to the image processing time comprises a number of reference frames used to generate the interpolation frame,
- wherein the controller is further configured to control the image processing time for the input image by adjusting the number of reference frames used to generate the interpolation frame,
- wherein when the content type of the input image is a game, the controller is further configured to determine the image processing parameter such that the image processing time is shorter than when a content type of the input image is a normal video rather than the game, and
- wherein the controller is further configured to adjust the number of the reference frames to be smaller than when the content type of the input image is the normal video when the content type of the input image is the game.
A controlling method of a display apparatus, the method comprising:
- receiving an input image;
- determining an image processing parameter related to an image processing time based on at least one characteristic of the input image;
- controlling the image processing time for the input image in response to the determined image processing parameter, and
- generating an interpolation frame based on the image processing parameter,
- wherein the image processing parameter related to the image processing time comprises a number of reference frames used to generate the interpolation frame,
- wherein the method further comprises controlling the image processing time for the input image by adjusting the number of reference frames used to generate the interpolation frame,
- wherein the determining the image processing parameter further comprises determining the image processing parameter such that the image processing time is shorter than when a content type of the input image is a normal video rather than a game when the content type of the input image is the game, and
- wherein adjusting the number of reference frames used to generate the interpolation frames comprises adjusting the number of the reference frames to be smaller than when the content type of the input image is the normal video when the content type of the input image is the game.
