Abstract
Disclosed are a display apparatus and a control method of the same. The display apparatus includes: a display unit, an image processing unit; an image receiving unit which receives an image from an image source; and a controller which controls the image processing unit to crop the image such that an aspect ratio of the received image becomes a preset reference aspect ratio and scale the cropped image in correspondence to a resolution of the display unit. With this configuration, an image with no distortion can be displayed.
Claims21
A display apparatus including a display unit, comprising:
- an image processing unit;
- an image receiving unit which receives an image from an image source;
- a controller which controls the image processing unit to crop the received image to a single cropped image of a reference aspect ratio, scale the single cropped image according to a resolution of the display unit, and display the scaled single image as the image source on the display unit;
- and
- a non-volatile storing unit, wherein, when the image is received from the image source, the controller controls the image processing unit to crop the received image and stores the cropped image in the non-volatile storing unit,
- wherein size reduction of the received image to be stored in the non-volatile storing unit is performed by cropping the received image,
- wherein the received image comprises a plurality of vertically or horizontally continuous regions, and the cropping comprises selecting a first region and second region among the plurality of the vertically or horizontally continuous regions of the received image for deletion,
- wherein the first region and second region are discontinuous.
A control method of a display apparatus including a display unit, comprising:
- receiving an image from an image source;
- determining whether an aspect ratio of the received image is a reference aspect ratio;
- cropping the received image to a single cropped image of the reference aspect ratio;
- displaying the single cropped image as the image source on a display;
- and
- storing the cropped image in a non-volatile storing unit,
- wherein size reduction of the received image to be stored in the non-volatile storing unit is performed by cropping the received image,
- wherein the received image comprises a plurality of vertically or horizontally continuous regions, and the cropping comprises selecting a first region and second region among the plurality of the vertically or horizontally continuous regions of the received image for deletion,
- wherein the first region and second region are discontinuous.
A method of displaying an image on a portable device, the method comprising:
- receiving an image;
- comparing the aspect ratio of the received image with an aspect ratio of a display unit of the portable device;
- if the aspect ratio of the received image is not equal to the aspect ratio of the display unit, removing a section of the received image to generate a single resultant image having the aspect ratio of the display unit,
- scaling the single resultant image,
- displaying the single resultant image as the image source on the display unit;
- and
- storing the scaled image in a non-volatile storage unit of the portable device,
- wherein size reduction of the received image to be stored in the non-volatile storing unit is performed by cropping the received image,
- wherein the received image comprises a plurality of vertically or horizontally continuous regions, and the cropping comprises selecting a first region and second region among the plurality of the vertically or horizontally continuous regions of the received image for deletion,
- wherein the first region and second region are discontinuous.
