Field sequential image display apparatus and method of driving the same

Abstract

Provided are a field sequential image display apparatus that reduces flicker and a method of driving the same. The field sequential image display apparatus, which uses a plurality of single color light sources, includes: an image analyzing unit dividing frames of an image signal into fields, whereby the number of fields is greater than the number of single color light sources; an image display panel displaying the fields sequentially; and a light source unit comprising the plurality of single color light sources that are independently driven or driven with other light sources in order to supply lights corresponding to the color components of the fields to the image display panel, wherein an average driving frequency of the single color light sources is higher than a frame rate.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
