Abstract:
A display may be provided with display layers such as a thin-film-transistor layer and a color filter layer. Liquid crystal material may be interposed between the thin-film-transistor layer and the color filter layer. Due to temperature fluctuations during operation, the optical properties of the liquid crystal material may be altered. To prevent color casts from developing in the display, the display may include temperature sensors. The temperature sensors may run along the left and right edges of the thin-film-transistor layer or may be mounted to other portions of the display. A signal bus may be used to gather temperature sensor data from the temperature sensors. Control circuitry may use temperature data from the temperature sensors to make display color cast adjustments that compensate for temperature fluctuations in different regions of the display.
