Abstract
Various imaging processing techniques are disclosed for displaying a pre-subpixel rendered image. The pre-subpixel rendered image can be transmitted directly to a display capable of displaying a subpixel rendered image. The pre-subpixel rendered image can also be stored for later transmission for output to the display. Additionally, the pre-subpixel rendered image can be embedded in an image data stream and later extracted and displayed. Furthermore, various techniques have been disclosed to embed and extract the pre-subpixel rendered image.
Claims5
A method for transmitting a first set of image data to an image rendering device, said image rendering device comprising a first subpixel layout, said first set of image data comprising a second set of image data and a third set of image data, wherein said second set of image data comprises image data that is not subpixel rendered and corresponds to a second subpixel layout and wherein said third set of image data comprises image data that is subpixel rendered and corresponds to said first subpixel layout wherein further said first subpixel layout differs from said second subpixel layout, the steps of said method comprising:
- subpixel rendering image data to create said third set of image data;
- embedding said third set of image data with said second set of image data to comprise said first set of image data;
- and
- transmitting said first set of image data to said image rendering device.
