Abstract
A method for displaying a moving picture having a proper tone by changing a combination of subfields constituting a field of the moving picture, the subfields each having a different weight of luminance, a motion vector indicating a moved direction of the image and a moved quantity thereof is detected from image data, new image data for providing a tone equivalent to a tone to be received by a retina to the retina when the image moves is generated corresponding to the detected motion vector, and the combination of subfields is determined based on the generated new image data.
Claims38
A method for displaying a moving picture having a proper tone by changing a combination of subfields comprising a field of the moving picture, said subfields each having a different luminance weight, said method comprising:
- detecting a motion vector indicating a movement direction of the image and a movement quantity of the image from the input image data;
- generating new image data for making a received tone equal to a tone of the input image data based on an amount of light received from display pixels located along a path on which a retina pixel corresponding to a retina acceptable region reflected in a retina has moved according to the motion vector;
- and
- determining the combination of subfields based on the new image data.
A moving picture display apparatus for displaying a moving picture having a proper tone by changing a combination of subfields comprising a field of the moving picture, said subfields each having a different luminance weight, said apparatus comprising:
- a motion vector detector that detects a motion vector of image data in neighboring fields;
- a reproducer that generates new image data to make a perceived tone equal to a tone of the input image data based on an amount of light received from display pixels located along a path on which a retina pixel corresponding to a retina acceptable region reflected in a retina has moved, according to the detected motion vector;
- and
- a determiner that determines drive data of a subfield based on the new generated image data.
