Abstract
A display apparatus includes a display panel, a communication controller that acquires a piece of drive data related to the display panel from pieces of drive data stored in a server via a network, a storage unit that stores the acquired piece of drive data and history management information for the display panel and the piece of drive data, a display driver that displays images on the display panel according to the piece of drive data stored in the storage unit, and a drive controller that has the communication controller acquire the piece of drive data for the display panel using the history management information and updates a piece of drive data previously stored in the storage unit to the acquired piece of drive data.
Claims7
A display apparatus comprising:
- a display panel;
- a communication controller for acquiring a piece of drive data related to the display panel from pieces of drive data stored in a server via a network;
- a storage unit for storing the acquired piece of drive data and history management information for the display panel and the stored piece of drive data;
- a display driver for displaying an image on the display panel according to the piece of drive data stored in the storage unit;
- and
- a drive controller that has the communication controller acquire a piece of drive data for the display panel by using the history management information and updates a piece of drive data previously stored in the storage unit to the acquired piece of drive data.
A drive data communication system comprising:
