A drive circuit of an image display apparatus has a correction circuit for outputting driving data that is corrected on the basis of a correction value. The correction value is a correction value that corrects variation of brightness of a plurality of pixels. The correction on the basis of the correction value is a correction such that the number of pixels to be darkened by the correction when the driving data inputted for the plurality of pixels have a common first value is fewer than the number of pixels to be darkened by the correction when the driving data inputted for the plurality of pixels have a common second value larger than the first value.

We recently reported that direct subjective ratings of the sense of presence are potentially unstable and can be biased by previous judgments of the same stimuli (Freeman et al., 1999). Objective measures of the behavioral realism elicited by a display offer an alternative to subjective ratings. Behavioral measures and presence are linked by the premise that, when observers experience a mediated environment (VE or broadcast) that makes them feel present, they will respond to stimuli within the environment as they would to stimuli in the real world. The experiment presented here measured postural responses to a video sequence filmed from the hood of a car traversing a rally track, using stereoscopic and monoscopic presentation. Results demonstrated a positive effect of stereoscopic presentation on the magnitude of postural responses elicited. Posttest subjective ratings of presence, vection, and involvement were also higher for stereoscopically presented stimuli. The postural and subjective measures were not significantly correlated, indicating that nonproprioceptive postural responses are unlikely to provide accurate estimates of presence. Such postural responses may prove useful for the evaluation of displays for specific applications and in the corroboration of group subjective ratings of presence, but cannot be taken in place of subjective ratings.

Using Behavioral Realism to Estimate Presence: A Study of the Utility of Postural Responses to Motion Stimuli

A system and method are presented for use in the object reconstruction The system comprises an illuminating unit, and an imaging unit (see figure 1) The illuminating unit comprises a coherent light source and a generator of a random speckle pattern accommodated in the optical path of illuminating light propagating from the light source towards an object, thereby projecting onto the object a coherent random speckle pattern The imaging unit is configured for detecting a light response of an illuminated region and generating image data The image data is indicative of the object with the projected speckles pattern and thus indicative of a shift of the pattern in the image of the object relative to a reference image of said pattern This enables real-time reconstruction of a three- dimensional map of the object

A driving method of an organic light emitting display device includes: classifying a plurality of luminance steps into at least a low luminance section and a high luminance section; and setting a reference luminance at a predefined level during the low luminance section and adjusting an off duty according to predetermined criteria for each step in the low luminance section.

It is an object to easily, and using existing devices, perform shadow enhancement that achieves an increase in the feeling of depth of 2D video. The input image data are first converted into brightness information by a brightness information calculation portion. Then, based on that brightness information, the normal direction and the edge information in the pixel targeted for processing are estimated by a normal direction estimation portion. A corrected gradation derivation portion then performs correction processing such as the addition of shadow component on the input image based on the brightness information and the estimated normal direction and edge information to create a processed image that has a feeling of depth, and then an output portion converts this to a predetermined image format and outputs it. In this way, it is possible to easily increase the feeling of depth of a 2D image through the addition of shadow, for example, in accordance with the characteristics of the input image.

There is provided a correlation between adjustment of luminance of a LCD and adjustment of luminance of a backlight. Luminance average value “Iave” is determined from display data. Luminance maximum value “I1max” in a macro area is determined from the display data. Luminance is adjusted with reference to luminance-transformed luminance. In luminance transformation, slope average “r1” in a range of 0≦I r3 in an area defined by a horizontal axis showing luminance “I” and a vertical axis showing luminance-transformed luminance “I#”.

It is an object of the invention to realize an image processor that allows the user to designate the degree of depth feeling with his single operation. An image processor 100 includes an image data input unit 200, a depth data input unit 210, a depth degree input unit 220, a depth feeling correction unit 230, and an image data output unit 240. The image processor 100 controls, in accordance with the depth data and depth degree, the gain of the depth feeling correction, so that the user can freely adjust the depth feeling degree. The process of the depth feeling degree archives both of the near view process and the distant view process, and the adjustment is carried out with the one-dimensional parameter.

The present invention executes color correction that improves the feeling of depth of a 2D image with ease and by using a preexisting device. Input image data is first converted into brightness information by a brightness information calculation portion. The interest level within the image is then estimated by an interest level estimation portion based on that information. The vanishing point is then estimated by a vanishing point estimation portion. Next, a depth estimation portion estimates the degree of depth based on the distance from the vanishing point to a pixel i and the interest level of the pixel i, and calculates a depth correction gain value. A corrected image, obtained by controlling a depth correction image process based on the depth correction gain value, is converted to a predetermined image format and outputted by an output portion.

A display controller including a video signal-analyzing unit, a video signal-adjusting unit operable to receive a video signal, to adjust the video signal in accordance with adjustment parameter information, and to feed the adjusted video signal into a display device, and a light source-controlling unit operable to feed a light source-controlling signal into a light source in accordance with light source light-emitting amount information. The video signal-analyzing unit allows timing in which the display device displays a picture in accordance with the adjusted video signal from the video signal-adjusting unit to be synchronized with timing in which the light source changes a light-emitting amount in response to the light source-controlling signal from the light source-controlling unit. As a result, such two different timings are held in a proper relationship with one another, and degradation in image quality is suppressed, which otherwise would result from a change in the light source to become dark and bright. This feature realizes high-quality video display.
