Description

智慧顯示器及其亮度調整方法 Smart display and brightness adjustment method thereof

本揭露是有關於一種顯示器及其控制方法,且特別是有關於一種智慧顯示器及其亮度調整方法。 The present disclosure relates to a display and a control method thereof, and in particular to a smart display and a brightness adjustment method thereof.

目前市面上的顯示器可以透過作業系統或顯示卡啟動高動態範圍(High Dynamic Range,HDR)顯示標準。在高動態範圍顯示標準中,藉由調整顯示器畫面數位灰階亮度或背光亮度,可以達到極高對比度的效果。 Currently, monitors on the market can enable the High Dynamic Range (HDR) display standard through the operating system or graphics card. In the High Dynamic Range display standard, by adjusting the digital grayscale brightness or backlight brightness of the monitor screen, an extremely high contrast effect can be achieved.

隨者顯示器導入OLED及Mini-LED面板後,顯示器亮度得到大幅度的提升,透過高動態範圍顯示標準則能夠達到最大峰值亮度為1000nits以上。若使用者在較昏暗的環境下(如100Lux以下)啟用高動態範圍顯示標準,人眼可能感到不適,也難以觀看到畫面中的細節,長時間使用下不僅可能造成視力的傷害,更可能耗費大量顯示器的電力。 With the introduction of OLED and Mini-LED panels in monitors, the brightness of monitors has been greatly improved. The high dynamic range display standard can reach a maximum peak brightness of more than 1000nits. If the user activates the high dynamic range display standard in a dim environment (such as below 100Lux), the human eye may feel uncomfortable and it is difficult to see the details in the picture. Long-term use may not only cause vision damage, but also consume a lot of monitor power.

本揭露係有關於一種智慧顯示器及其亮度調整方法,其將線性之背光亮度曲線轉換為指數之背光亮度曲線,以調降低亮度的變化程度,可避免在昏暗環境對人眼造成傷害。此外,智慧顯示器可以分別針對標準動態範圍顯示標準與高動態範圍顯示標準,採用不同的方式來調整像素之灰階亮度。如此一來,可以維持標準動態範圍顯示標準或高動態範圍顯示標準的顯示效果,亦可適度達成省電的效果。 This disclosure is about a smart display and a brightness adjustment method thereof, which converts a linear backlight brightness curve into an exponential backlight brightness curve to reduce the degree of brightness variation, thereby avoiding damage to human eyes in a dim environment. In addition, the smart display can use different methods to adjust the grayscale brightness of pixels for the standard dynamic range display standard and the high dynamic range display standard. In this way, the display effect of the standard dynamic range display standard or the high dynamic range display standard can be maintained, and the power saving effect can be achieved appropriately.

根據本揭露之一方面,提出一種智慧顯示器之亮度調整方法。智慧顯示器之亮度調整方法包括以下步驟。獲得智慧顯示器之一背光亮度曲線。若背光亮度曲線為一線性曲線,則轉換背光亮度曲線為一指數曲線。讀取智慧顯示器之一影像畫面。判斷影像畫面係採用一標準動態範圍(Standard Dynamic Range,SDR)顯示標準或採用一高動態範圍(High Dynamic Range,HDR)顯示標準。若影像畫面係採用標準動態範圍顯示標準,則執行一第一灰階亮度調降程序。若影像畫面係採用高動態範圍顯示標準,則執行一第二灰階亮度調降程序。第二灰階亮度調降程序不同於第一灰階亮度調降程序。 According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a brightness adjustment method for a smart display is proposed. The brightness adjustment method for a smart display includes the following steps. Obtain a backlight brightness curve of the smart display. If the backlight brightness curve is a linear curve, convert the backlight brightness curve into an exponential curve. Read an image screen of the smart display. Determine whether the image screen adopts a standard dynamic range (SDR) display standard or a high dynamic range (HDR) display standard. If the image screen adopts the standard dynamic range display standard, execute a first grayscale brightness reduction procedure. If the image screen adopts the high dynamic range display standard, execute a second grayscale brightness reduction procedure. The second grayscale brightness reduction procedure is different from the first grayscale brightness reduction procedure.

根據本揭露之另一方面,提出一種智慧顯示器。智慧顯示器包括一背光控制單元、一轉換單元、一顯示標準判斷單元、一第一灰階亮度調降單元及一第二灰階亮度調降單元。背光控制單元係依據一背光亮度曲線控制智慧顯示器之背光。若背光亮度曲線為一線性曲線,則轉換單元轉換背光亮度曲線為一指數 曲線。顯示標準判斷單元用以讀取智慧顯示器之一影像畫面,並判斷影像畫面係採用一標準動態範圍(Standard Dynamic Range,SDR)顯示標準或採用一高動態範圍(High Dynamic Range,HDR)顯示標準。若影像畫面係採用標準動態範圍顯示標準,則第一灰階亮度調降單元執行一第一灰階亮度調降程序。若影像畫面係採用高動態範圍顯示標準,則第二灰階亮度調降單元執行一第二灰階亮度調降程序。第二灰階亮度調降程序不同於第一灰階亮度調降程序。 According to another aspect of the present disclosure, a smart display is provided. The smart display includes a backlight control unit, a conversion unit, a display standard determination unit, a first grayscale brightness reduction unit, and a second grayscale brightness reduction unit. The backlight control unit controls the backlight of the smart display according to a backlight brightness curve. If the backlight brightness curve is a linear curve, the conversion unit converts the backlight brightness curve into an exponential curve. The display standard determination unit is used to read an image frame of the smart display and determine whether the image frame adopts a standard dynamic range (SDR) display standard or a high dynamic range (HDR) display standard. If the image frame adopts the standard dynamic range display standard, the first grayscale brightness reduction unit executes a first grayscale brightness reduction procedure. If the image adopts the high dynamic range display standard, the second grayscale brightness reduction unit executes a second grayscale brightness reduction procedure. The second grayscale brightness reduction procedure is different from the first grayscale brightness reduction procedure.

請參照第1圖,其繪示根據一實施例之智慧顯示器100之背光亮度曲線CV1、CV2。智慧顯示器100可以採用線性之背光亮度曲線CV1或者採用指數之背光亮度曲線CV2調整背光。在智慧顯示器100採用標準動態範圍(Standard Dynamic Range)顯示標準SDR時,智慧顯示器100之背光最高可調整至100%;在智慧顯示器100採用高動態範圍(High Dynamic Range)顯示標準HDR時,智慧顯示器100之背光最高可調整至130%。指數之背光亮度曲線CV2可以調降低亮度的變化程度,以避免在昏暗環境對人眼造成傷害。 Please refer to Figure 1, which shows the backlight brightness curves CV1 and CV2 of the smart display 100 according to an embodiment. The smart display 100 can use a linear backlight brightness curve CV1 or an exponential backlight brightness curve CV2 to adjust the backlight. When the smart display 100 uses the standard dynamic range (SDR) to display the standard SDR, the backlight of the smart display 100 can be adjusted to 100% at most; when the smart display 100 uses the high dynamic range (HDR) to display the standard HDR, the backlight of the smart display 100 can be adjusted to 130% at most. The exponential backlight brightness curve CV2 can reduce the degree of brightness change to avoid damage to human eyes in a dim environment.

此外,依據智慧顯示器100目前是採用標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR或高動態範圍顯示標準HDR,智慧顯示器100可以不同之方式調整像素之灰階亮度。如此一來,可以維持標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR或高動態範圍顯示標準HDR的顯示效果,亦可適度達成省電的效果。 In addition, according to whether the smart display 100 currently adopts the standard dynamic range display standard SDR or the high dynamic range display standard HDR, the smart display 100 can adjust the grayscale brightness of the pixel in different ways. In this way, the display effect of the standard dynamic range display standard SDR or the high dynamic range display standard HDR can be maintained, and the power saving effect can be achieved appropriately.

請參照第2圖,其繪示根據一實施例之智慧顯示器100之方塊圖。智慧顯示器100包括一顯示面板110、一背光控制單元120、一轉換單元130、一成像單元140、一顯示標準判斷單元160、一第一灰階亮度調降單元170、一第二灰階亮度調降單元180、一影像擷取單元191、一人眼偵測單元192及一環境亮度偵測單元193。顯示面板110例如是一OLED面板或採用mini-LED之LCD面板。背光控制單元120用以進行背光控制。轉換單元130用以進行背光亮度曲線CV1與背光亮度曲線CV2的轉換。成像單元140則按照一畫面訊號S1調整各個像素之多種 原色的灰階亮度,以使這些像素組成一張影像畫面FM。顯示標準判斷單元160則可讀取各個像素,或者攔截畫面訊號S1,以讀出影像畫面FM之內容,並識別目前是採用標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR或高動態範圍顯示標準HDR。第一灰階亮度調降單元170及第二灰階亮度調降單元180則分別針對標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR或高動態範圍顯示標準HDR進行不同的灰階亮度調降程序。影像擷取單元191用以擷取人眼畫面FM71。人眼偵測單元192則用以偵測人眼。環境亮度偵測單元193用以偵測環境亮度。背光控制單元120、轉換單元130、成像單元140、顯示標準判斷單元160、第一灰階亮度調降單元170、第二灰階亮度調降單元180、影像擷取單元191及人眼偵測單元192例如是一電路、一晶片、一電路板、一電腦程式產品、一程式碼、或儲存程式碼之儲存裝置。環境亮度偵測單元193例如是一光敏電阻(Photo-sensitive resistor)。 Please refer to FIG. 2, which shows a block diagram of a smart display 100 according to an embodiment. The smart display 100 includes a display panel 110, a backlight control unit 120, a conversion unit 130, an imaging unit 140, a display standard determination unit 160, a first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170, a second grayscale brightness reduction unit 180, an image capture unit 191, a human eye detection unit 192, and an environment brightness detection unit 193. The display panel 110 is, for example, an OLED panel or an LCD panel using mini-LED. The backlight control unit 120 is used to perform backlight control. The conversion unit 130 is used to convert the backlight brightness curve CV1 and the backlight brightness curve CV2. The imaging unit 140 adjusts the grayscale brightness of various primary colors of each pixel according to a picture signal S1 so that these pixels form an image frame FM. The display standard determination unit 160 can read each pixel or intercept the picture signal S1 to read the content of the image frame FM and identify whether the standard dynamic range display standard SDR or the high dynamic range display standard HDR is currently adopted. The first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170 and the second grayscale brightness reduction unit 180 respectively perform different grayscale brightness reduction procedures for the standard dynamic range display standard SDR or the high dynamic range display standard HDR.

在本實施例中,智慧顯示器100可以透過背光控制單元120與轉換單元130將線性之背光亮度曲線CV1轉換為指數之背光亮度曲線CV2,以調降低亮度的變化程度,可避免在昏暗環境對人眼造成傷害。此外,智慧顯示器100可以利用第一灰階亮度調降單元170與第二灰階亮度調降單元180分別針對標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR與高動態範圍顯示標準HDR,採用不同的方式來調整像素之灰階亮度。如此一來,可以維持標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR或高動態範圍顯示標準HDR的顯示效果,亦可適度達成省電的效果。以下更搭配一流程圖詳細說明各項元件之運作。 In this embodiment, the smart display 100 can convert the linear backlight brightness curve CV1 into an exponential backlight brightness curve CV2 through the backlight control unit 120 and the conversion unit 130 to reduce the degree of brightness change, thereby avoiding damage to human eyes in a dim environment. In addition, the smart display 100 can use the first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170 and the second grayscale brightness reduction unit 180 to adjust the grayscale brightness of pixels in different ways for the standard dynamic range display standard SDR and the high dynamic range display standard HDR. In this way, the display effect of the standard dynamic range display standard SDR or the high dynamic range display standard HDR can be maintained, and the power saving effect can also be achieved appropriately. The following is a flowchart to explain the operation of each component in detail.

請參照第3圖,其繪示根據一實施例之智慧顯示器100之亮度調整方法的流程圖。在步驟S110中,如第1圖所示,獲得智慧顯示器100之背光亮度曲線(例如是背光亮度曲線CV1或背光亮度曲線CV2)。 Please refer to FIG. 3, which shows a flow chart of a brightness adjustment method of a smart display 100 according to an embodiment. In step S110, as shown in FIG. 1, a backlight brightness curve of the smart display 100 (for example, backlight brightness curve CV1 or backlight brightness curve CV2) is obtained.

接著,在步驟S120中,如第1圖及第2圖所示,轉換單元130判斷背光亮度曲線係採用線性曲線或指數曲線。若背光亮度曲線係採用線性曲線(如背光亮度曲線CV1),則進入步驟S130;若背光亮度曲線係採用指數曲線(如背光亮度曲線CV2),則進入步驟S150。請參照下式(1),LCD BLCM 50%係為轉換單元130讀取背光控制單元120對於50%亮度之設定亮度(例如是第1圖之背光亮度曲線CV1上的點P51,其設定亮度為115;或者是第1圖之背光亮度曲線CV2上的點P52,其設定亮度為48)。Linear BLCM 50%係為50%亮度之理想線性亮度(例如是第1圖之虛線上的點P50,其理想線性亮度為127.5)。Ratio Backlight 為亮度比值。倘若亮度比值小於2,則可判定背光亮度曲線係採用線性曲線;倘若亮度比值大於或等於2,則可判定背光亮度曲線係採用指數曲線。 Next, in step S120, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the conversion unit 130 determines whether the backlight brightness curve is a linear curve or an exponential curve. If the backlight brightness curve is a linear curve (such as the backlight brightness curve CV1), the process proceeds to step S130; if the backlight brightness curve is an exponential curve (such as the backlight brightness curve CV2), the process proceeds to step S150. Referring to the following formula (1), LCD BLCM 50% is the set brightness of the backlight control unit 120 for 50% brightness read by the conversion unit 130 (for example, point P51 on the backlight brightness curve CV1 of FIG. 1, whose set brightness is 115; or point P52 on the backlight brightness curve CV2 of FIG. 1, whose set brightness is 48). Linear BLCM 50% is the ideal linear brightness of 50% brightness (for example, point P50 on the dotted line in Figure 1, its ideal linear brightness is 127.5). Ratio Backlight is the brightness ratio. If the brightness ratio is less than 2, it can be determined that the backlight brightness curve adopts a linear curve; if the brightness ratio is greater than or equal to 2, it can be determined that the backlight brightness curve adopts an exponential curve.

Figure 111149427-A0305-02-0008-2
Figure 111149427-A0305-02-0008-2

在步驟S130中,如第2圖所示,轉換單元130轉換背光亮度曲線CV1為一指數曲線(即轉換為背光亮度曲線CV2)。線性之背光亮度曲線CV1轉換為指數之背光亮度曲線CV2後,可以調降低亮度的變化程度,以避免在昏暗環境對人眼造成傷害。 In step S130, as shown in FIG. 2, the conversion unit 130 converts the backlight brightness curve CV1 into an exponential curve (i.e., into the backlight brightness curve CV2). After the linear backlight brightness curve CV1 is converted into the exponential backlight brightness curve CV2, the degree of brightness change can be reduced to avoid damage to human eyes in a dim environment.

舉例來說,轉換單元130例如是以下式(2)、(3)將線性之背光亮度曲線CV1轉換為指數之背光亮度曲線CV2。 For example, the conversion unit 130 converts the linear backlight brightness curve CV1 into the exponential backlight brightness curve CV2 using the following equations (2) and (3).

is the converted backlight brightness curve CV2, LCD BLCM 0% is the 0% brightness of the backlight brightness curve CV1, LCD BLCM 130% is the 130% brightness of the backlight brightness curve CV1, Percentage (0~130%) is the percentage of the backlight brightness curve CV2, K ( 0~130 )% is the compensation coefficient of different percentages, Backlight ( 0~130 )% is the percentage.

接著,在步驟S140中,如第2圖所示,顯示標準判斷單元160讀取智慧顯示器100之影像畫面FM。顯示標準判斷單元160則可讀取各個像素,或者攔截畫面訊號S1,以讀出影像畫面FM之內容。 Next, in step S140, as shown in FIG. 2, the display standard determination unit 160 reads the image frame FM of the smart display 100. The display standard determination unit 160 can read each pixel or capture the screen signal S1 to read the content of the image frame FM.

然後,在步驟S150中,如第2圖所示,顯示標準判斷單元160判斷影像畫面FM係採用標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR或採用高動態範圍顯示標準HDR。若影像畫面FM採用標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR則進入步驟S170;若影像畫面FM採用高動態範圍顯示標準HDR,則進入步驟S180。 Then, in step S150, as shown in FIG. 2, the display standard determination unit 160 determines whether the image frame FM adopts the standard dynamic range display standard SDR or the high dynamic range display standard HDR. If the image frame FM adopts the standard dynamic range display standard SDR, the process proceeds to step S170; if the image frame FM adopts the high dynamic range display standard HDR, the process proceeds to step S180.

在步驟S170中,如第2圖所示,第一灰階亮度調降單元170對顯示面板110之像素執行一第一灰階亮度調降程序PR1。請參照第4圖,其示例說明第一灰階亮度調降程序PR1之一例。人眼之人眼注視位置PL為人眼注視範圍RG之中心。第一灰階亮度調降程序PR1係以一人眼注視範圍RG為中心,放射狀調降影像畫面FM中人眼注視範圍RG之外之所有像素的灰階亮度值(人眼注視範圍RG內的像素則不調降灰階亮度值)。若以 單色畫面為例,人眼注視範圍RG最亮,人眼注視範圍RG的外圍像素會朝向邊緣逐漸遞減其原來設定的亮度。但影像畫面FM若不是單色畫面時,人眼注視範圍RG則不一定是最亮的位置。 In step S170, as shown in FIG. 2, the first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170 performs a first grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR1 on the pixels of the display panel 110. Please refer to FIG. 4, which illustrates an example of the first grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR1. The human eye's eye gaze position PL is the center of the human eye gaze range RG. The first grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR1 is to radially reduce the grayscale brightness values of all pixels outside the human eye gaze range RG in the image frame FM with the human eye gaze range RG as the center (the grayscale brightness values of the pixels within the human eye gaze range RG are not reduced). If a monochrome image is taken as an example, the human eye gaze range RG is the brightest, and the peripheral pixels of the human eye gaze range RG will gradually reduce their originally set brightness toward the edge. However, if the image frame FM is not a monochrome image, the human eye's focus range RG may not necessarily be the brightest position.

請參照第5圖,其示例說明第一灰階亮度調降程序PR1之另一例。當人眼注視於影像畫面FM之左側時,第一灰階亮度調降程序PR1同樣以偏左之人眼注視範圍RG為中心,放射狀調降影像畫面FM中人眼注視範圍RG之外之所有像素的灰階亮度值(人眼注視範圍RG內的像素則不調降灰階亮度值)。若以單色畫面為例,人眼注視範圍RG維持原來設定的亮度,而維持最亮,外圍的像素會朝向邊緣逐漸遞減其原來設定的亮度。但影像畫面FM若不是單色畫面時,人眼注視範圍RG則不一定是最亮的位置。 Please refer to Figure 5, which illustrates another example of the first grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR1. When the human eye is focused on the left side of the image frame FM, the first grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR1 is also centered on the left-biased human eye focus range RG, and radially reduces the grayscale brightness values of all pixels outside the human eye focus range RG in the image frame FM (the grayscale brightness values of pixels within the human eye focus range RG are not reduced). If a monochrome image is taken as an example, the human eye focus range RG maintains the original set brightness and remains the brightest, and the peripheral pixels will gradually reduce their original set brightness toward the edge. However, if the image frame FM is not a monochrome image, the human eye focus range RG is not necessarily the brightest position.

在步驟S180中,如第2圖所示,第二灰階亮度調降單元180對顯示面板110之像素執行一第二灰階亮度調降程序PR2。第二灰階亮度調降程序PR2不同於第一灰階亮度調降程序PR1。第二灰階亮度調降程序PR2僅對部分像素的灰階亮度值進行調降。調降之方式例如是以人眼注視位置PL為中心,進行放射狀調降。舉例來說,第二灰階亮度調降程序PR2只會對灰階亮度值小於或等於平均灰階亮度值的像素調降灰階亮度值,並且人眼注視範圍RG內的部分像素也會被調降灰階亮度值,以維持高動態範圍顯示標準的顯示效果。 In step S180, as shown in FIG. 2, the second grayscale brightness reduction unit 180 performs a second grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR2 on the pixels of the display panel 110. The second grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR2 is different from the first grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR1. The second grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR2 only reduces the grayscale brightness values of some pixels. The reduction method is, for example, radial reduction with the human eye gaze position PL as the center. For example, the second grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR2 only reduces the grayscale brightness values of pixels whose grayscale brightness values are less than or equal to the average grayscale brightness value, and the grayscale brightness values of some pixels within the human eye gaze range RG are also reduced to maintain the display effect of the high dynamic range display standard.

以下進一步詳細說明第一灰階亮度調降程序PR1與第二灰階亮度調降程序PR2。 The first grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR1 and the second grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR2 are further described in detail below.

請參照第6圖,其繪示根據一實施例之步驟S170之細部流程圖。在步驟S1701中,如第2圖所示,以影像擷取單元191拍攝一人眼畫面FM71。 Please refer to FIG. 6, which shows a detailed flow chart of step S170 according to an embodiment. In step S1701, as shown in FIG. 2, a human eye picture FM71 is captured by the image capture unit 191.

接著,在步驟S1702中,如第2圖所示,人眼偵測單元192依據人眼畫面FM71,獲得一人眼中心位置P71。人眼中心位置P71係為雙眼連線之中點。 Next, in step S1702, as shown in FIG2, the human eye detection unit 192 obtains a human eye center position P71 based on the human eye image FM71. The human eye center position P71 is the midpoint of the line connecting the two eyes.

然後,在步驟S1703中,如第2圖所示,人眼偵測單元192轉換人眼畫面FM71之人眼中心位置P71為影像畫面FM之人眼注視位置PL。人眼偵測單元192例如是按照一二維座標轉換函數轉換人眼中心位置P71為人眼注視位置PL。 Then, in step S1703, as shown in FIG. 2, the eye detection unit 192 converts the eye center position P71 of the eye picture FM71 into the eye gaze position PL of the image picture FM. The eye detection unit 192 converts the eye center position P71 into the eye gaze position PL according to a two-dimensional coordinate conversion function, for example.

舉例來說,人眼偵測單元192例如是以下式(4)來將人眼中心位置P71轉換為人眼注視位置PL。 For example, the human eye detection unit 192 converts the human eye center position P71 into the human eye gaze position PL using the following formula (4).

(x current ,y current )=μ(x eye ,y eye )......................................................(4) ( x current ,y current )=μ( x eye ,y eye )......................................................(4)

其中x current 為人眼注視位置PL之X座標,y current 為人眼注視位置PL之Y座標,x eye 為人眼中心位置P71之X座標,y eye 為人眼中心位置P71之X座標,μ(,)為轉換函數。 Where x current is the X coordinate of the eye gaze position PL, y current is the Y coordinate of the eye gaze position PL, x eye is the X coordinate of the eye center position P71, y eye is the X coordinate of the eye center position P71, and μ( , ) is the conversion function.

接著,在步驟S1704中,如第2圖所示,人眼偵測單元192依據人眼注視位置PL,獲得人眼注視範圍RG。人眼注視範圍RG例如是一300像素*400像素的範圍。人眼注視位置PL位於人眼注視範圍RG的中心,故從人眼注視位置PL向上與向下擴展150像素,並從人眼注視位置PL向左與向右擴展200像素,即可獲得人眼注視範圍RG。舉例來說,人眼注視範圍RG之四個頂點分別為(x current -200,y current +150)、(x current +200, y current +150)、(x current -200,y current -150)、(x current +200,y current -150)。 Next, in step S1704, as shown in FIG. 2, the eye detection unit 192 obtains the eye gaze range RG according to the eye gaze position PL. The eye gaze range RG is, for example, a range of 300 pixels * 400 pixels. The eye gaze position PL is located at the center of the eye gaze range RG, so the eye gaze range RG can be obtained by expanding 150 pixels upward and downward from the eye gaze position PL, and expanding 200 pixels to the left and right from the eye gaze position PL. For example, the four vertices of the eye gaze range RG are ( x current -200, y current +150), ( x current +200, y current +150), ( x current -200, y current -150), ( x current +200, y current -150).

然後,在步驟S1705中,如第2圖所示,以環境亮度偵測單元193偵測一環境亮度AL。 Then, in step S1705, as shown in FIG. 2, the ambient brightness detection unit 193 detects an ambient brightness AL.

接著,在步驟S1706中,如第2圖所示,第一灰階亮度調降單元170依據環境亮度AL,獲得調整參考常數ref。調整參考常數ref正比於環境亮度AL。舉例來說,第一灰階亮度調降單元170例如是以下式(5)來獲得調整參考常數ref。 Next, in step S1706, as shown in FIG. 2, the first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170 obtains the adjustment reference constant ref according to the ambient brightness AL. The adjustment reference constant ref is proportional to the ambient brightness AL. For example, the first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170 obtains the adjustment reference constant ref by the following formula (5).

Default L Max ( nits ) is the maximum brightness, which is, for example, 600nits under the standard dynamic range display standard SDR. Sceen resolution ( milli ) is the screen resolution, for example, 1920× 10-3 ×1080× 10-3 , and Pi is a constant, for example, 3.1416.

然後,在步驟S1707中,第一灰階亮度調降單元170依據各個像素與人眼注視位置PL的距離,獲得一調整程度值BRF。各個調整程度值BRF正比於各個像素點與人眼注視位置PL的距離。舉例來說,第一灰階亮度調降單元170例如是以下式(6)獲得調整程度值BRF。 Then, in step S1707, the first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170 obtains an adjustment level value BRF according to the distance between each pixel and the human eye gaze position PL. Each adjustment level value BRF is proportional to the distance between each pixel and the human eye gaze position PL. For example, the first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170 obtains the adjustment level value BRF by the following formula (6).

The first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170 reduces the grayscale brightness values, for example, according to the following equations (9) and (10).

(R out ,G out ,B out )(x=-960 to 960,y=-540 to 540)=(R in -R in * BRF (x,y) ,G in -G in * BRF (x,y) ,B in -B in * BRF (x,y))..............(9) ( R out ,G out ,B out ) ( x =-960 to 960 ,y =-540 to 540) =( R in - R in * BRF ( x,y ) ,G in - G in * BRF ( x,y ) ,B in - B in * BRF ( x,y ) )..............(9)

(R out ,G out ,B out )(x=-200 to 200,y=-150 to 150)=(R in ,G in ,B in )(x,y)...................................................(10) ( R out ,G out ,B out ) ( x =-200 to 200 ,y =-150 to 150) =( R in ,G in ,B in ) ( x,y ) ...................................................................(10)

其中,(R out ,G out ,B out )為調降後之紅/綠/藍三原色的灰階亮度值,R in 為調整前之紅色灰階亮度值,G in 為調整前之綠色灰階亮度值,B in 為調整前之藍色灰階亮度值,BRF (x,y)為調整程度值BRF。 Among them, ( R out , G out , B out ) is the grayscale brightness value of the red/green/blue primary colors after downgrading, R in is the red grayscale brightness value before adjustment, G in is the green grayscale brightness value before adjustment, B in is the blue grayscale brightness value before adjustment, and BRF ( x, y ) is the adjustment degree value BRF.

上式(9)係對全部的像素進行調整,上式(10)則是將人眼注視範圍RG之內的像素調整回原設定亮度值。 The above formula (9) adjusts all pixels, while the above formula (10) adjusts the pixels within the human eye's gaze range RG back to the original set brightness value.

透過上述步驟S1701~S1708,第一灰階亮度調降程序PR1可以人眼注視範圍RG為中心,放射狀調降影像畫面FM中人眼注視範圍RG之外之所有像素的灰階亮度值(人眼注視範圍RG內的像素不調降灰階亮度值)。 Through the above steps S1701~S1708, the first grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR1 can radially reduce the grayscale brightness values of all pixels outside the human eye gaze range RG in the image frame FM with the human eye gaze range RG as the center (the grayscale brightness values of pixels within the human eye gaze range RG are not reduced).

請參照第7圖,其繪示根據一實施例之步驟S180之細部流程圖。在步驟S1801中,如第2圖所示,以影像擷取單元191拍攝一人眼畫面FM71。 Please refer to FIG. 7, which shows a detailed flow chart of step S180 according to an embodiment. In step S1801, as shown in FIG. 2, a human eye picture FM71 is captured by the image capture unit 191.

其中Grey Average 為平均灰階亮度值avg,Grey (x,y)為各項素之灰階亮度值。 Where Grey Average is the average grayscale brightness value avg, and Grey ( x,y ) is the grayscale brightness value of each pixel.

If the grayscale brightness value of the pixel is 0 or 255, then the process proceeds to step S1809.

在步驟S1809中,第二灰階亮度調降單元180不調降此像素之灰階亮度值。 In step S1809, the second grayscale brightness reduction unit 180 does not reduce the grayscale brightness value of this pixel.

然後,在步驟S1810中,第二灰階亮度調降單元180判斷像素的灰階亮度值是否大於平均灰階亮度值avg。若像素的灰階亮度值大於平均灰階亮度值avg,則進入步驟S1811;若像素的灰階亮度值小於或等於平均灰階亮度值avg,則進入步驟S1812。 Then, in step S1810, the second grayscale brightness reduction unit 180 determines whether the grayscale brightness value of the pixel is greater than the average grayscale brightness value avg. If the grayscale brightness value of the pixel is greater than the average grayscale brightness value avg, then the process proceeds to step S1811; if the grayscale brightness value of the pixel is less than or equal to the average grayscale brightness value avg, then the process proceeds to step S1812.

其中,(R out ,G out ,B out )為調降後之紅/綠/藍三原色的灰階亮度值,R in 為調整前之紅色灰階亮度值,G in 為調整前之綠 色灰階亮度值,B in 為調整前之藍色灰階亮度值,BRF (x,y)為調整程度值BRF。 Among them, ( R out , G out , B out ) is the grayscale brightness value of the red/green/blue primary colors after downgrading, R in is the red grayscale brightness value before adjustment, G in is the green grayscale brightness value before adjustment, B in is the blue grayscale brightness value before adjustment, and BRF ( x, y ) is the adjustment degree value BRF.

透過上述步驟S1801~S1812,第二灰階亮度調降程序PR2僅對部分像素的灰階亮度值進行調降。調降之方式例如是以人眼注視位置PL為中心,進行放射狀調降。舉例來說,第二灰階亮度調降程序PR2只會對灰階亮度值小於或等於平均灰階亮度值的像素調降灰階亮度值,並且人眼注視範圍RG內的部分像素也會被調降灰階亮度值,以維持高動態範圍顯示標準的顯示效果。 Through the above steps S1801~S1812, the second grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR2 only reduces the grayscale brightness value of some pixels. The reduction method is, for example, radial reduction with the human eye gaze position PL as the center. For example, the second grayscale brightness reduction procedure PR2 will only reduce the grayscale brightness value of pixels whose grayscale brightness value is less than or equal to the average grayscale brightness value, and the grayscale brightness value of some pixels within the human eye gaze range RG will also be reduced to maintain the display effect of the high dynamic range display standard.

根據上述實施例,智慧顯示器100將線性之背光亮度曲線CV1轉換為指數之背光亮度曲線CV2,以調降低亮度的變化程度,可避免在昏暗環境對人眼造成傷害。此外,智慧顯示器100可以利用第一灰階亮度調降單元170與第二灰階亮度調降單元180分別針對標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR與高動態範圍顯示標準HDR,採用不同的方式來調整像素之灰階亮度。如此一來,可以維持標準動態範圍顯示標準SDR或高動態範圍顯示標準HDR的顯示效果,亦可適度達成省電的效果。 According to the above embodiment, the smart display 100 converts the linear backlight brightness curve CV1 into the exponential backlight brightness curve CV2 to adjust the degree of brightness variation, thereby avoiding damage to human eyes in a dim environment. In addition, the smart display 100 can use the first grayscale brightness reduction unit 170 and the second grayscale brightness reduction unit 180 to adjust the grayscale brightness of pixels in different ways for the standard dynamic range display standard SDR and the high dynamic range display standard HDR. In this way, the display effect of the standard dynamic range display standard SDR or the high dynamic range display standard HDR can be maintained, and the power saving effect can also be achieved appropriately.
