Abstract
Gradations on a display unit having spacers and pixels disposed between a first and a second substrates are corrected with corresponding to dispositions of the spacers on the display unit. The gradations are corrected with corresponding to the dispositions of the spacers on the display unit and values of the gradations, and thereby, it becomes possible to eliminate irregularities in a display luminance in vicinities of the spacers regardless of gradation levels.
Claims14
A display device, comprising:
- a display unit having a first and a second substrates disposed to face each other, spacers and a plurality of display pixels disposed between the first and the second substrates;
- a gradation correction unit configured to correct a gradation with corresponding to a disposition of the spacer on said display unit and a value of the gradation to display the display pixel;
- and
- a drive signal generation unit configured to generate a drive signal to display said display unit based on the corrected gradations.
