Abstract
According to one embodiment, a display device includes a display panel including a plurality of pixels arranged in a non-rectangular display area, and a display controller configured to display images in the display area. An opening portion of each of pixels disposed at an edge portion of the display area is light-shielded at an area ratio according to a shape of the display area.
Claims4
A display device comprising:
- a display panel comprising a plurality of pixels arranged in a non-rectangular display area;
- and
- a display controller configured to display images in the display area, wherein
- the plurality of pixels include a plurality of first pixels which constitute a first row of the pixel array and a plurality of second pixels which constitute a second row adjacent to the first row in a pixel array along a column direction,
- each of the plurality of first pixels includes first and second subpixels,
- each of the plurality of second pixels includes the first and second subpixels,
- the plurality of first pixels and the plurality of second pixels are arranged alternately along the column direction of the pixel array,
- opening portions of the first and second subpixels included in the first and second pixels disposed at the edge portion of the display area are light-shielded at respective area ratios according to the shape of the display area,
- the size of the light-shielded area of the first subpixel included in the first pixel is different from the size of the light-shielded area of the second subpixel included in the first pixel,
- the size of the light-shielded area of the first subpixel included in the second pixel is different from the size of the light-shielded area of the second subpixel included in the second pixel, and
- the size of the light-shielded area of the first subpixel included in the first pixel is different from the size of the light-shielded area of the second subpixel which is included in the second pixel and adjoins to the first subpixel included in the first pixel along the column direction of the pixel array.
