Abstract

A tiled display comprises display devices adjacent to one another and each comprising first pixels and second pixels, a first boundary area where longer sides of at least two of the display devices are adjacent to each other, and a second boundary area where shorter sides of at least two of the display devices are adjacent to each other. Each of the first pixels and the second pixels comprises sub-pixels. The first pixels are disposed in the first boundary area such that the sub-pixels of the first pixels are parallel to the longer sides of the display devices. The second pixels are disposed in the second boundary area such that the sub-pixels of the second pixels are parallel to the shorter sides of the display devices.

A tiled display comprising:

a plurality of display devices adjacent to one another and each comprising first pixels and second pixels;
a first boundary area where longer sides of at least two of the plurality of display devices are adjacent to each other;
and
a second boundary area where shorter sides of at least two of the plurality of display devices are adjacent to each other, wherein
each of the first pixels and the second pixels comprises sub-pixels,
the first pixels are disposed in the first boundary area such that each of the sub-pixels of the first pixels are parallel to the longer sides of the plurality of display devices,
the second pixels are disposed in the second boundary area such that each of the sub-pixels of the second pixels are parallel to the shorter sides of the plurality of display devices,
an arrangement of the sub-pixels in each of the first pixels is different from an arrangement of the sub-pixels in each of the second pixels, and
in one of the plurality of display devices, a minimum distance between each of the sub-pixels of the first pixel adjacent to the longer side and the longer side is different from a minimum distance between each of the sub-pixels of the second pixel adjacent to the shorter side and the shorter side, wherein
the first boundary area is composed of the first pixels, and
the second boundary area is composed of the second pixels.
