Disclosed is a liquid crystal display device comprising a liquid crystal layer including a plurality of liquid crystals in a pixel area and a backlight unit coupled to the liquid crystal layer. A plurality of pixels are disposed in the pixel area. The backlight unit is configured to project light towards the entire pixel area of the liquid crystal layer during an illumination time period of a frame time, and not to project the light towards any of the pixel area of the liquid crystal layer during a non-illumination time period of the frame time. By enabling the backlight unit for the illumination time period less than the frame time, image streaking and latency can be reduced.
A liquid crystal display device comprising:
A method of displaying an image by a liquid crystal display device including a liquid crystal layer and a backlight unit coupled to the liquid crystal layer, the liquid crystal layer including a plurality of liquid crystals in a pixel area, a plurality of pixels disposed in the pixel area, the method comprising:
