Abstract
An electrooptic device includes: a first panel; a second panel on the back of the first panel; a first receiver circuit that measures a first ambient light incident on the first panel; a second receiver circuit that measures a second ambient light incident on the second panel; and a control circuit that measures the brightness of the environment where the first panel is placed on the basis of the luminance of the first ambient light whose ratio to that of the second ambient light is at or below a predetermined value, and that controls the display state of an image displayed on the first panel on the basis the brightness of the environment.
Claims16
An electrooptic device comprising:
- a first panel;
- a second panel on a back of the first panel;
- a first receiver circuit that measures a first ambient light incident on the first panel;
- a second receiver circuit that measures a second ambient light incident on the second panel;
- and
- a control circuit that measures a brightness of an environment where the first panel is placed based on a luminance of the first ambient light whose ratio to that of the second ambient light is at or below a predetermined value, and that controls a display state of an image displayed on the first panel based on the brightness of the environment, wherein the predetermined value is 10 to 1.
An electrooptic device comprising:
- a display panel having a predetermined display surface;
- a first receiver circuit that measures a first ambient light incident on the display surface of the display panel;
- a second receiver circuit that measures a second ambient light incident on a surface of the display panel opposite to the display surface;
- and
- a control circuit that measures a brightness of an environment where the display panel is placed based on a luminance of the first ambient light whose ratio to that of the second ambient light is at or below a predetermined value, and that controls a display state of an image displayed on the display panel based on the brightness of the environment, wherein the predetermined value is 10 to 1.
An electrooptic device comprising:
- a first panel;
- a second panel on a back of the first panel;
- a first receiver circuit that measures a first ambient light incident on the first panel;
