Description
本發明係有關一種背光調變與影像處理之方法,特別為針對不同圖像資料適當調變背光亮度,並將原始圖像資料重新處理,以搭配調變後之背光亮度,並維持原有之圖像品質。The invention relates to a method for backlight modulation and image processing, particularly for appropriately adjusting the brightness of the backlight for different image materials, and reprocessing the original image data to match the brightness of the backlight after the modulation, and maintaining the original Image quality.
早期具有液晶螢幕之電子裝置為了節省功率消耗,會在背光模組上設計一可調變背光亮度的簡易功能,使用者可依不同電子裝置之操作狀態,自行將背光亮度設定為明亮模式(bright mode)或一般模式(normal mode)。在明亮模式下,亮度約為400cd/m2 ;若是在一般模式下,亮度則約為250 cd/m2 ,以達到簡易的省電功能。但此種調變背光亮度之方式,存在有值得需要改進的兩個問題,其一,需要根據使用者操作狀態自行進行背光模式的變更,對於使用者而言多了一道步驟;其二,對於不同的輸入圖像資訊而言,搭配過亮的或是過暗背光則會影響輸出之圖像品質,而造成人眼觀賞時的不舒服感。In order to save power consumption, an electronic device with an LCD screen will design a simple function of changing the backlight brightness on the backlight module. The user can set the backlight brightness to the bright mode according to the operating state of different electronic devices (bright) Mode) or normal mode. In bright mode, the brightness is about 400 cd/m 2 ; if it is in the normal mode, the brightness is about 250 cd/m 2 to achieve a simple power saving function. However, there are two problems worthy of improvement in the way of modulating the brightness of the backlight. First, it is necessary to change the backlight mode according to the user's operating state, which is a step for the user; second, for For different input image information, the over-bright or over-bright backlight will affect the image quality of the output, which will cause discomfort when viewing the human eye.
如美國專利第5,598,565號案,說明電子裝置為達到節省功率損耗之目的,藉由設置電源管理系統(power management system)以調節功率消耗。電源管理系統分別針對硬碟裝置(hard drive disk)、軟碟裝置(floppy drive disk)以及平面顯示裝置(flat panel display driver)等三個子裝置進行電源調節省電控制。在硬碟裝置及軟碟裝置兩個子裝置電源調節控制部分,當可攜式電腦閒置超過軟體設定的時間,系統則會發出命令以關閉硬碟裝置及軟碟裝置的轉速動作,以達到節省功率消耗的目的。而在平面顯示裝置調節控制部分,係藉由使用者切換省電模式(power saving mode)開關,以進行省電控制。當省電模式啟用時,可分成靜態及動態畫面而進行控制,若是在靜態畫面工作時,判斷游標(cursor)定位之位置,降低其他區域中畫素的亮度並維持此區域中畫素的亮度,以達到省電效果;若是在動態畫面工作時,平面顯示裝置的電源管理系統會將前後張圖像資料進行分析,由於相鄰的動態圖像內容一般差異不大,故利用前景與後景方式進行調變參考依據,前景資料一般是屬於會移動的物體,至於後景則屬於靜止不動的背景,因此針對靜止不動的背景做亮度上的調節,而只讓會移動的物體維持原有亮度。但此一方式尚有三個問題點需要改善,第一,在平面顯示裝置調節控制部分,若是使用者在一般操作模式下工作,省電模式則不會被啟動,不但無法達到省電之效果亦不夠人性化;第二,當使用者在省電模式下工作時,由於只有部分畫素區域會維持原有亮度,其他區域亮度則會被降低,則整個顯示畫面給予使用者的視覺效果會變得偏暗或是造成視覺上的不舒適;第三,對於背光液晶顯示器而言,可能會因為刷新速度(refresh rate)降低而導致輸出之圖像品質變差。For example, in the case of U.S. Patent No. 5,598,565, the electronic device is configured to adjust the power consumption by setting a power management system for the purpose of saving power loss. The power management system performs power supply control and power saving control for three sub-devices, such as a hard drive disk, a floppy drive disk, and a flat panel display driver. In the power adjustment control part of the two sub-devices of the hard disk device and the floppy disk device, when the portable computer is idle for more than the software setting time, the system will issue a command to turn off the speed operation of the hard disk device and the floppy disk device to save the operation. The purpose of power consumption. In the flat display device adjustment control portion, the user saves the power saving mode switch to perform power saving control. When the power saving mode is enabled, it can be divided into static and dynamic pictures. If it is working in a static picture, determine the position of the cursor, reduce the brightness of pixels in other areas and maintain the brightness of the pixels in this area. In order to achieve power saving effect; if it is working in dynamic picture, the power management system of the flat display device will analyze the image data before and after, because the adjacent dynamic image content generally has little difference, so the foreground and the background are utilized. The method is based on the modulation reference. The foreground data generally belongs to the object that will move. As for the background, it belongs to the stationary background. Therefore, the background is fixed for the stationary background, and only the moving object is maintained. . However, there are still three problems in this method that need to be improved. First, in the adjustment control part of the flat display device, if the user works in the normal operation mode, the power saving mode will not be activated, and the power saving effect will not be achieved. Secondly, when the user works in the power saving mode, since only part of the pixel area will maintain the original brightness, the brightness of other areas will be reduced, and the visual effect of the entire display screen to the user will change. It is dark or visually uncomfortable. Thirdly, for a backlit liquid crystal display, the image quality of the output may be deteriorated due to a decrease in the refresh rate.
另外,日本專利第08-201812號案係揭露一種液晶顯示裝置,其可動態調變背光用以改善傳統控制方式。液晶顯示裝置主要包括一平均亮度偵測電路(average brightness detecting circuit)以及一背光控制電路(backlight control portion)。舉例來說,當平均亮度偵測電路偵測一圖像(picture)之平均亮度階數(average brightness level)為高準位(high)時,則利用背光控制電路降低背光的亮度。此案可以有效減少液晶顯示裝置有過亮或過暗的現象存在,使得使用者可以容易地並舒適地使用液晶顯示裝置,使用者可更直接地觀賞並感受到圖像動態顯示效果;換言之,即是提高黑屏(dark screen)及亮屏(bright screen)各別之對比特性。但是,當平均亮度階數為低準位(low)時,提高液晶顯示裝置之亮度並改善圖像品質的同時,在顯示黑色畫面時,液晶顯示裝置(LCD portion)可能會有部份光線由背光部分漏出,這種漏光的現象被稱為純黑損耗(loss of true black),會造成顯示圖像呈現發白的現象進而使得顯示效果變差。因此,雖然提高了背光亮度但卻也增加了純黑損耗的缺點。In addition, Japanese Patent Publication No. 08-201812 discloses a liquid crystal display device which can dynamically modulate a backlight to improve a conventional control mode. The liquid crystal display device mainly includes an average brightness detecting circuit and a backlight control portion. For example, when the average brightness detection circuit detects that the average brightness level of a picture is high, the backlight control circuit is used to reduce the brightness of the backlight. The case can effectively reduce the phenomenon that the liquid crystal display device is too bright or too dark, so that the user can easily and comfortably use the liquid crystal display device, and the user can directly view and feel the dynamic display effect of the image; in other words, That is to improve the contrast characteristics of the dark screen and the bright screen. However, when the average brightness order is low, the brightness of the liquid crystal display device is improved and the image quality is improved. At the same time, when the black image is displayed, the liquid crystal display device (LCD portion) may have some light rays. The backlight portion leaks out, and this phenomenon of light leakage is called loss of true black, which causes the display image to appear whitish and the display effect is deteriorated. Therefore, although the backlight brightness is increased, the disadvantage of pure black loss is also increased.
又,日本專利第2001-27890號案係揭露一種影像顯示裝置及影像顯示方式,其在一特定的關係中,透過動態調節一圖像訊號的對比度及背光的亮度。此一專利技術係依據一補償值來增加圖像訊號的動態變化範圍;此一補償值係以平均亮度及圖像訊號位移的程度作為參考。藉此在顯示螢幕上提高圖像之對比度,並同時透過調節控制背光亮度,以模糊視圖像與背光間之亮度差。所以,圖像之對比度可透過上述之處理而改善。但若包含了一張不完全(崩潰)的圖像時,圖像訊號的動態範圍會立即被擴大,因此會強調出圖像之缺陷部分,進而被使用者認定是缺陷。假使圖像訊號的動態範圍夾雜有雜訊(noise)訊號成分,並進而被擴大的同時,其雜訊訊號成分也會被強調,亦會被使用者認定是缺陷。Further, Japanese Patent No. 2001-27890 discloses an image display device and an image display mode which dynamically adjust the contrast of an image signal and the brightness of a backlight in a specific relationship. The patented technology increases the dynamic range of the image signal according to a compensation value; the compensation value is based on the average brightness and the degree of image signal displacement. Thereby, the contrast of the image is improved on the display screen, and at the same time, the brightness of the backlight is controlled by adjusting to blur the difference between the brightness of the image and the backlight. Therefore, the contrast of the image can be improved by the above processing. However, if an incomplete (crash) image is included, the dynamic range of the image signal is immediately expanded, thus highlighting the defective portion of the image, which is considered by the user to be a defect. If the dynamic range of the image signal is mixed with a noise signal component, and then expanded, the noise signal component will be emphasized and will be identified as a defect by the user.
再者,日本專利第06-102484號案係揭露藉由圖像訊號與背光控制訊號的相關性進行動態程度上的調變。即當一訊號為暗階(dark level)並且暗階大於一界限值(threshold value)時,則降低背光亮度,並同時將圖像訊號的動態範圍進行擴張。反之,若是暗階沒有大於界線值,則不會對背光亮度及圖像訊號進行任何調變。在亮階(bright level)的圖像區域沒有被影響的情況下,上述的調變可以降低偏暗圖像區域亮度的不均勻性。然而,上述圖像訊號及背光亮度的調整,主要是根據圖像訊號的暗階資訊進行分析而沒有參考其他的資訊,例如圖像訊號的平均亮度等等,因此,當圖像沒有暗階存在時,即不會調整圖像訊號,也就是說圖像之顯示品質並不會被改善。Furthermore, Japanese Patent No. 06-102484 discloses a dynamic degree of modulation by the correlation of an image signal with a backlight control signal. That is, when a signal is a dark level and a dark level is greater than a threshold value, the backlight brightness is lowered and the dynamic range of the image signal is expanded at the same time. Conversely, if the dark level is not greater than the boundary value, no adjustment will be made to the backlight brightness and image signal. In the case where the image area of the bright level is not affected, the above-described modulation can reduce the unevenness of the brightness of the dark image area. However, the adjustment of the image signal and the brightness of the backlight is mainly based on the analysis of the dark information of the image signal without referring to other information, such as the average brightness of the image signal, etc., therefore, when the image has no dark order When the image signal is not adjusted, the image quality of the image is not improved.
而美國專利第7,053,881號案亦揭露動態調變圖像訊號與背光控制訊號之方法,其為改善前述日本專利案第08-201812號案之缺點。該方法主要的流程為,輸入一圖像訊號,並且同時傳送到顯示控制部(display control portion)、平均亮度偵測部(average brightness detecting portion)以及峰值偵測部(peak detecting portion)進行處理;顯示控制部係將輸入之圖像訊號轉換為顯示裝置能顯示之資料模式;平均亮度偵測部則是針對整張圖像的圖像訊號進行平均亮度計算,並將處理後的平均亮度訊號值(ave_signal)傳送至背光控制部作為背光調變的參考值;以及峰值偵測部係針對不同之圖像訊號之內容進行峰值(peak value)的運算,其結果可能是高態(high state,1)及低態(low state,0),並且同樣會提供一峰值訊號值(pek_signal)給背光控制部作為背光調變的參考值。因此在背光控制部中,會同時參考平均亮度訊號值及峰值訊號值而調變背光。此方法雖然藉由增加峰值偵測部而改善顯示之圖像的對比受到亮度改變的影響,但卻會造成圖像品質降低,並且無法維持原始圖像的顯示效果。A method of dynamically modulating an image signal and a backlight control signal is also disclosed in the U.S. Patent No. 7,053,881, which is to improve the disadvantages of the aforementioned Japanese Patent Publication No. 08-201812. The main flow of the method is: inputting an image signal, and simultaneously transmitting to a display control portion, an average brightness detecting portion, and a peak detecting portion for processing; The display control unit converts the input image signal into a data mode that the display device can display; the average brightness detection unit performs average brightness calculation on the image signal of the entire image, and the processed average brightness signal value (ave_signal) is transmitted to the backlight control unit as a reference value for backlight modulation; and the peak detection unit performs peak value calculation for the content of different image signals, and the result may be high state (1) And low state (0), and also provide a peak signal value (pek_signal) to the backlight control as a reference for backlight modulation. Therefore, in the backlight control unit, the backlight is modulated by referring to the average luminance signal value and the peak signal value at the same time. Although this method improves the contrast of the displayed image by the addition of the peak detecting portion, it is affected by the brightness change, but the image quality is lowered, and the display effect of the original image cannot be maintained.
因此,本發明針對上述前案的問題及缺失,提出一種背光調變與影像處理之方法,使得調變背光時不會出現閃爍現象而影響使用者的視覺觀感,並且同時維持圖像品質。Therefore, the present invention provides a method for backlight modulation and image processing in response to the above problems and disadvantages, so that the backlight is modulated without blurring and affects the visual perception of the user while maintaining image quality.

Like the level value.
請參考圖2b,係為本發明之另一種取得平均圖像準位值方法之流程方塊圖,步驟S210’係為另一取得平均圖像準位值的方法,其包括:步驟S211:預設一畫素百分比值;步驟S216:取得一畫素百分比差值,其係以數值1減去畫素百分比值而得出畫素百分比差值;步驟S212:分析圖像資訊,其為分析圖像中每一畫素之灰階值,並且統計每一灰階值之畫素數量,藉以建立一分析統計資訊,其可為一分析統計圖,並計算出圖像之一總畫素數量;步驟S217:由低灰階值向高灰階值累加每一灰階值之一畫素數量,以得到一累加畫素數量,藉此分析圖像之亮暗比例;步驟S218:判斷累加畫素數量是否等於總畫素數量與畫素百分比差值之乘積或大於總畫素數量與畫素百分比差值之乘積的最小整數量;以及步驟S219:當步驟218判斷結果為累加畫素數量等於總畫素數量與畫素百分比差值之乘積或大於總畫素數量與畫素百分比差值之乘積的最小整數量時,則擷取此時的灰階值作為平均圖像準位值。Please refer to FIG. 2b, which is a block diagram of another method for obtaining an average image level value according to the present invention. Step S210′ is another method for obtaining an average image level value, which includes: Step S211: Preset a pixel percentage value; step S216: obtaining a pixel percentage difference, which is obtained by subtracting the pixel percentage value from the value 1 to obtain a pixel percentage difference; and step S212: analyzing image information, which is an analysis image The grayscale value of each pixel, and the number of pixels of each grayscale value is calculated, thereby establishing an analysis statistical information, which can be an analysis statistical graph, and calculating the total number of pixels of the image; S217: accumulating the number of pixels of each grayscale value from the low grayscale value to the high grayscale value to obtain a cumulative number of pixels, thereby analyzing the brightness ratio of the image; and step S218: determining the number of accumulated pixels Whether it is equal to the product of the total pixel quantity and the pixel percentage difference or the minimum integer quantity of the product of the total pixel quantity and the pixel percentage difference; and step S219: when the step 218 determines that the accumulated pixel quantity is equal to the total picture Number of primes and percentage of pixels When the product of the difference value is greater than the minimum integer quantity of the product of the total pixel quantity and the pixel percentage difference, the gray level value at this time is taken as the average image level value.
請再參考圖2c,係為本發明擷取圖像資訊之曲線圖,其係利用直方圖分析(Histogram Analysis)擷取平均圖像準位(APL)值;其擷取步驟係將分析一圖像資訊各畫素之灰階值,再統計各灰階值的畫素數量,藉此可得知此圖像之亮暗比例,並可得知圖像資訊之總畫素數量。為了對圖像之亮暗比例做適當之亮暗變化判斷,由分析統計圖中之高灰階值向低灰階值累加每一灰階值之畫素數量,以得到一累加畫素數量,並判斷累加畫素數量是否等於總畫素與畫素百分比值之乘積或大於總畫素數量與畫素百分比值之乘積的最小整數量;當判斷結果係為累加畫素數量等於總畫素數量與畫素百分比值之乘積或大於總畫素數量與畫素百分比值之乘積的最小整數量時,則擷取此時的灰階值作為平均圖像準位值。Please refer to FIG. 2c again, which is a graph for capturing image information according to the present invention, which uses Histogram Analysis to obtain an average image level (APL) value; and the extraction step is to analyze an image. Like the grayscale value of each pixel of the information, the number of pixels of each grayscale value is counted, so that the brightness ratio of the image can be known, and the total number of pixels of the image information can be known. In order to make appropriate light and dark change judgments on the brightness ratio of the image, the number of pixels of each gray scale value is accumulated from the high gray scale value in the analysis chart to the low gray scale value to obtain a cumulative number of pixels. And determining whether the number of accumulated pixels is equal to the product of the total pixel and the pixel percentage value or the minimum integer quantity of the product of the total pixel quantity and the pixel percentage value; when the judgment result is the number of accumulated pixels is equal to the total number of pixels When the product of the pixel percentage value or the minimum integer quantity of the total pixel quantity and the pixel percentage value is multiplied, the grayscale value at this time is taken as the average image level value.
舉例來說,若預設之畫素百分比值為25%,經過分析圖像資訊後,可得知此圖像之亮暗比例其圖像資訊之總畫素數量,如由高灰階值向低灰階值累加每一灰階值之畫素數量,以得到一累加畫素數量,當累加畫素數量等於總畫素數量的25%時,則擷取此時的灰階值作為平均圖像準位值。若是由低灰階值向高灰階值累加每一灰階值之畫素數量,以得到一累加畫素數量,則需先以數值1減去所預設之畫素百分比值以得出畫素百分比差值,而畫素百分比差值則為75%,當累加畫素數量等於總畫素數量的75%時,則擷取此時的灰階值作為平均圖像準位值。For example, if the preset pixel percentage value is 25%, after analyzing the image information, the brightness and darkness ratio of the image can be known as the total number of pixels of the image information, such as from the high grayscale value. The low grayscale value accumulates the number of pixels of each grayscale value to obtain a cumulative number of pixels. When the number of accumulated pixels is equal to 25% of the total number of pixels, the grayscale value at this time is taken as an average graph. Like the level value. If the number of pixels of each grayscale value is accumulated from the low grayscale value to the high grayscale value to obtain a cumulative number of pixels, the first pixel percentage value is first subtracted from the value 1 to obtain a picture. The percentage difference of the prime percentage is 75%, and when the number of accumulated pixels is equal to 75% of the total number of pixels, the grayscale value at this time is taken as the average image level value.
請參考圖3a及圖3b,其中圖3a係為本發明影像處理步驟之流程方塊圖,圖3b係表示本發明平均圖像準位值與背光調整率之線性關係圖;步驟S220之方法包括:步驟S221:設定一變數值(var);步驟S222:取得一最大平均圖像準位值(APLmax );步驟S223:取得一參考值(m);以及步驟S224:取得一背光調變率。Please refer to FIG. 3a and FIG. 3b, wherein FIG. 3a is a block diagram of the image processing step of the present invention, and FIG. 3b is a linear relationship diagram of the average image level value and the backlight adjustment rate of the present invention; the method of step S220 includes: Step S221: setting a variable value (var); step S222: obtaining a maximum average image level value (APL max ); step S223: obtaining a reference value (m); and step S224: obtaining a backlight modulation rate.
最大平均圖像準位值(APLmax )係藉由讀取圖像資訊之一影像資料位元數n後計算而得,如果圖像位元數為8,則平均圖像準位值之最大值為28 -1,而參考值(m)係等於最大平均圖像準位值(APLmax )除以1與變數值間差值(1-var)之整數值,或大於最大平均圖像準位值(APLmax )除以1與變數值間差值(1-var)之最小整數值,也就是說m=APLmax /(1-var),其中m為整數,或m>APLmax /(1-var),其中m取最小整數;背光調變率(BackDim)係將平均圖像準位值(APL)除以參考值(m)後再加上變數值(var)後而取得,也就是說背光調變率可以寫成如下述之方程式BackDim=(APL/m)+var。The maximum average image level value (APL max ) is calculated by reading the number of image data bits n of the image information. If the number of image bits is 8, the average image level value is the largest. The value is 2 8 -1, and the reference value (m) is equal to the maximum average image level value (APL max ) divided by the integer value of the difference between the 1 and the variable value (1-var), or greater than the maximum average image. The level value (APL max ) is divided by the smallest integer value of the difference (1-var) between 1 and the variable value, that is, m=APL max /(1-var), where m is an integer, or m>APL max /(1-var), where m is the smallest integer; backlight modulation rate (BackDim) is obtained by dividing the average image level (APL) by the reference value (m) and adding the variable value (var). That is to say, the backlight modulation rate can be written as the following equation BackDim=(APL/m)+var.
舉例來說,若將變數值設為0.5,而圖像位元數為8,則最大平均圖像準位值(APLmax )為255,所以可進一步計算出參考值(m)為數值510,所以背光調變方程式則可寫成BackDim=(APL/510)+0.5,因此在取得平均圖像準位值後,即可將平均圖像準位值(APL)代入背光調變方程式中,以取得背光調變率。又因平均圖像準位值與背光調變率呈線性關係,所以在背光調整之過程中,圖像之亮度變化能夠更適應性地進行調變處理,使得圖像不論是在靜態或是動態顯示的過程中不會有閃爍的現象發生,並且根據不同之圖像,背光調變就會有不同的調變結果。For example, if the variable value is set to 0.5 and the number of image bits is 8, the maximum average image level value (APL max ) is 255, so the reference value (m) can be further calculated as the value 510. Therefore, the backlight modulation equation can be written as BackDim=(APL/510)+0.5, so after obtaining the average image level value, the average image level value (APL) can be substituted into the backlight modulation equation. Get the backlight modulation rate. Since the average image level value is linear with the backlight modulation rate, the brightness change of the image can be more adaptively modulated during the backlight adjustment process, so that the image is static or dynamic. There will be no flickering during the display, and depending on the image, the backlight modulation will have different modulation results.
請再參考圖1,其中步驟S300係包括:步驟S310:取得一第一亮度因子;步驟S320:建立一亮度因子重置模型;步驟S330:根據亮度因子重置模型將第一亮度因子重置為一第二亮度因子;步驟S340:取得一比例因子;以及步驟S350:取得一圖像輸出值。Referring to FIG. 1 again, step S300 includes: step S310: obtaining a first brightness factor; step S320: establishing a brightness factor reset model; step S330: resetting the first brightness factor to a brightness factor reset model according to a second brightness factor; step S340: obtaining a scale factor; and step S350: obtaining an image output value.
而步驟S310之方法係將圖像資料由一RGB色彩模型轉換為一YUV色彩模型後擷取YUV色彩模型中之亮度因子而得。因YUV色彩模型中Y為亮度因子、U及V為色彩因子,又因為本實施例僅針對背光進行調變,所以僅擷取YUV色彩模型中之亮度因子作為第一亮度因子。而RGB色彩模型轉換為YUV色彩模型之方式可使用例如下列的轉換方程式:Y=max(R,G,B);Y=1/3*(R+G+B);或Y=0.299×R+0.587×G+0.114×B;其中R、G、B係為在RGB色彩模型之圖像資訊,但並不限於上述之轉換方程式。以下敘述係以Y=0.299×R+0.587×G+0.114×B之方程式為例。The method of step S310 is obtained by converting image data from an RGB color model to a YUV color model and then taking a luminance factor in the YUV color model. Because Y is the brightness factor, U and V are the color factors in the YUV color model, and since the embodiment only modulates the backlight, only the brightness factor in the YUV color model is taken as the first brightness factor. The conversion of the RGB color model to the YUV color model may use, for example, the following conversion equation: Y = max (R, G, B); Y = 1/3 * (R + G + B); or Y = 0.299 × R + 0.587 × G + 0 .114×B; wherein R, G, and B are image information in the RGB color model, but are not limited to the above conversion equation. The following description takes the equation of Y=0.299×R+0.587×G+0.114×B as an example.
請參考圖4,係為本發明之三個不同圖像之圖像資訊分析統計圖,其為分析三個不同圖像之分析統計資訊,若將畫素百分比值設為25%,並且由高灰階值向低灰階值累加每一灰階值之畫素數量,直到畫素數量之和大於總畫素數量的25%時,可分別由三個分析統計曲線中擷取出APL1 、APL2 、APL3 三個灰階值作為平均圖像準位值,且APL1 、APL2 、APL3 係分別介於0及255之間。Please refer to FIG. 4 , which is an image information analysis statistical graph of three different images of the present invention, which is an analysis statistical information of three different images, and if the pixel percentage value is set to 25%, and is high The gray scale value accumulates the number of pixels of each gray scale value to the low gray scale value until the sum of the number of pixels is greater than 25% of the total number of pixels, and the APL 1 and the APL can be extracted from the three analytical statistical curves respectively. 2 , APL 3 three grayscale values as the average image level value, and APL 1 , APL 2 , APL 3 are between 0 and 255 respectively.
請同時參考圖5a、圖5b及圖5c,係分別為本發明亮度因子之重置模型一、重置模型二及重置模型三,其中當平均圖像準位值較低(如圖4中之APL1 ),也就是說圖像經判讀後為偏暗之狀態,則其相對應的重置曲線之轉折點在於Y=α,且亮度因子重置模型中亮態部分之轉換區間會較大,且背光亮度會調降較多;或當平均圖像準位值適中(如圖4中之APL2 ),也就是說圖像經判讀後為亮、暗均勻之狀態,則其重置曲線的轉折點在於Y=β,且亮度因子重置模型中亮態部分之轉換區間會坐落於接近一半處,此時背光亮度調降約為一半;又或當平均圖像準位值較高(如圖4中之APL3 ),也就是說圖像經判讀後為偏亮之狀態,則其重置曲線的轉折點在於Y=γ,且亮度因子重置模型中亮態部分之轉換區間會較窄,此時背光亮度調降程度較少;其中β係介於α及γ之間。Please refer to FIG. 5a, FIG. 5b and FIG. 5c at the same time, which are respectively the resetting factor 1, the reset model 2 and the reset model 3 of the brightness factor of the invention, wherein the average image level value is low (as shown in FIG. 4 ). APL 1 ), that is to say, the image is dark after being interpreted, then the corresponding turning point of the reset curve is Y=α, and the transition interval of the bright part in the brightness factor reset model is larger. And the brightness of the backlight will be reduced more; or when the average image level is moderate (such as APL 2 in Figure 4), that is, the image is bright and dark after the interpretation, the reset curve The turning point is Y=β, and the transition interval of the bright part of the brightness factor reset model will be located close to half, at which time the backlight brightness is reduced by about half; or when the average image level is higher (such as In Fig. 4, APL 3 ), that is, the image is brightened after being interpreted, the turning point of the reset curve is Y=γ, and the transition interval of the bright portion in the brightness factor reset model is narrower. At this time, the backlight brightness is reduced to a lesser degree; wherein the β system is between α and γ.
亦即步驟S320之較佳實施方式(不以此為限),係為當第一亮度因子大於重置曲線的轉折點時,則第一亮度因子經重置曲線重置後,而形成的第二亮度因子即大於第一亮度因子;又若當第一亮度因子小於重置曲線的轉折點時,則第一亮度因子經重置曲線重置後,而形成的第二亮度因子即小於或等於第一亮度因子;而當第一亮度因子等於重置曲線的轉折點時,則第二亮度因子則等於第一亮度因子。That is, the preferred embodiment of step S320 (not limited thereto) is when the first brightness factor is greater than the turning point of the reset curve, and then the first brightness factor is reset after the reset curve is formed. The brightness factor is greater than the first brightness factor; and if the first brightness factor is less than the turning point of the reset curve, the first brightness factor is reset by the reset curve, and the formed second brightness factor is less than or equal to the first Luminance factor; and when the first brightness factor is equal to the turning point of the reset curve, then the second brightness factor is equal to the first brightness factor.
在步驟S330中,第一亮度因子係根據亮度因子重置模型重置為第二亮度因子。In step S330, the first brightness factor is reset to the second brightness factor according to the brightness factor reset model.
而在步驟S340中,取得比例因子(Scale)之方法係將第二亮度因子(Y’)除以第一亮度因子(Y)而得知,也可以寫成Scale=Y’/Y,藉此求得亮度需調整的比例。In step S340, the method of obtaining the scale factor is obtained by dividing the second brightness factor (Y') by the first brightness factor (Y), and can also be written as Scale=Y'/Y. The ratio of brightness to be adjusted.
在步驟S350中,取得圖像輸出值之方法係將比例因子(Scale)與圖像資訊之一圖像輸入值(Ri,Gi,Bi)進行乘積運算後,以獲得輸出圖像輸出值(Ro,Go,Bo)。也就是說Ro=Scale×Ri;Go=Scale×Gi;Bo=Scale×Bi。In step S350, the method of obtaining the image output value is to multiply the scale factor (Scale) and one of the image information input values (Ri, Gi, Bi) to obtain an output image output value (Ro). , Go, Bo). That is to say, Ro = Scale × Ri; Go = Scale × Gi; Bo = Scale × Bi.
藉此,整合背光調變步驟S200及影像處理步驟S300,以達到調變背光亮度之省電功效,並且有效地維持所顯示之圖像品質,除了可提高圖像對比效果外,圖像品質亦不會失真。Thereby, the backlight modulation step S200 and the image processing step S300 are integrated to achieve the power saving effect of modulating the brightness of the backlight, and effectively maintaining the displayed image quality, in addition to improving the image contrast effect, the image quality is also improved. No distortion.
舉例來說,參考圖6a,係為說明本發明另一實施例中的輸入圖像彩色圖,其為欲進行背光調整及影像處理之圖像,其圖像輸入值為(Ri,Gi,Bi)=(50,100,150),依照本發明所述之方法,先將圖像輸入值由RGB色彩模型轉換為YUV色彩模型,根據轉換方程式Y=0.299×R+0.587×G+0.114×B=0.299×50+0.587×100+0.114×150=90.75For example, referring to FIG. 6a, it is a color image of an input image in another embodiment of the present invention, which is an image to be subjected to backlight adjustment and image processing, and the image input value is (Ri, Gi, Bi). = (50, 100, 150), according to the method of the present invention, the image input value is first converted from the RGB color model to the YUV color model, according to the conversion equation Y = 0.299 × R + 0.587 × G + 0.114 × B =0.299×50+0.587×100+0.114×150=90.75
可得知第一亮度因子(Y)為90.75,請同時參考圖6b,係為本實施力之亮度因子重置模型之曲線圖,根據圖6b所示之亮度因子重置模型,其重置曲線之轉折點在於Y=66,以將第一亮度因子(Y)重置為第二亮度因子(Y’);由於已知第一亮度因子(Y)為90.75,故可得知第二亮度因子(Y’)為105;接著計算比例因子(Scale),Scale=Y’/Y=105/90.75=1.167;在計.算出比例因子為1.167後,再將比例因子與圖像輸入值(Ri,Gi,Bi)做乘積處理後,即可知圖像輸出值(Ro,Go,Bo)分別為Ro=scale×Ri=1.167×50=58.35;Go=scale×Gi=1.167×100=116.7;Bo=scale×Bi=1.167×150=175.05;請再參考圖6c,係為圖6a經過影像處理步驟處理後之圖像彩色圖。It can be known that the first brightness factor (Y) is 90.75, please refer to FIG. 6b at the same time, which is a graph of the brightness factor reset model of the implementation force, and the reset curve is reset according to the brightness factor shown in FIG. 6b. The turning point is Y=66 to reset the first brightness factor (Y) to the second brightness factor (Y'); since the first brightness factor (Y) is known to be 90.75, the second brightness factor can be known ( Y') is 105; then calculate the scale factor (Scale), Scale=Y'/Y=105/90.75=1.167; after calculating the scale factor is 1.167, then the scale factor and the image input value (Ri, Gi , Bi) After the product processing, it can be known that the image output values (Ro, Go, Bo) are Ro = scale × Ri = 1.167 × 50 = 58.35; Go = scale × Gi = 1.167 × 100 = 116.7; Bo = scale ×Bi=1.167×150=175.05; please refer to FIG. 6c again, which is an image color diagram of FIG. 6a after being processed by the image processing step.
由上述之結果可推導出Ri:Gi:Bi=50:100:150=1:2:3=Ro:Go:Bo=58.35:116.7:175.05;所以,亦可得知經過影像處理後之圖像可有效維持其色度(Hue)。From the above results, it can be deduced that Ri:Gi:Bi=50:100:150=1:2:3=Ro:Go:Bo=58.35:116.7:175.05; therefore, the image after image processing can also be known. It can effectively maintain its Hue.
此外經由直方圖之max(Ri,Gi,Bi)分析,並進行平均圖像準位值判讀後,取得平均圖像準位值為150,並藉由背光調變方程式計算背光調變率BackDim為0.79,BackDim=(150/510)+0.5=0.79。In addition, after the max (Ri, Gi, Bi) analysis of the histogram and the average image level value interpretation, the average image level value is obtained, and the backlight modulation rate BackDim is calculated by the backlight modulation equation. 0.79, BackDim=(150/510)+0.5=0.79.
請同時參考圖6d,係為圖6c經過背光調變步驟處理後之圖像彩色圖,也就是說需將背光之亮度將調降21%使背光之亮度變為原本的79%並且將影像處理後之圖像搭配調降21%之背光亮度,藉以使得如圖6d所示之輸出圖像品質近似於圖6a所示之輸入圖像品質,並達到省電之功效。Please also refer to FIG. 6d, which is an image color image processed by the backlight modulation step in FIG. 6c, that is, the brightness of the backlight should be reduced by 21% so that the brightness of the backlight becomes 79% of the original and the image is processed. The latter image is adjusted to reduce the backlight brightness by 21%, so that the output image quality as shown in FIG. 6d is similar to the input image quality shown in FIG. 6a, and the power saving effect is achieved.
