Abstract: A method is provided of controlling an illumination source for a display device which comprises a display modulator (28) for modulating the light provided by the illumination source (42). The method comprises using a light sensor arrangement (30) to generate a first signal (D M1 ) based on an ambient light level with first illumination source drive conditions, and using the light sensor arrangement to generate a second signal (D M2 ) based on the same ambient light level but with second illumination source drive conditions different to the first drive conditions. The first and second detected signals are processed to compensate for differences in the light sensor arrangement response characteristics when operating with the first and second illumination source drive conditions thereby to derive a compensated light sensor arrangement characteristic covering both the first and second illumination source drive conditions. Ambient light levels detected using this model of the characteristic are used to control the display device.

Abstract: A liquid crystal display device including a liquid crystal layer, a common electrode, and an electrode set is disclosed. The liquid crystal layer is placed between said common electrode and the electrode set, and the electrode set is provided for switching the liquid crystal layer. The electrode set includes a first electrode (104a) and a second electrode (104b). The first electrode (104a) switches a first area of the liquid crystal layer. The second electrode (104b) switches a second area of the liquid crystal layer. Particularly, the second area includes at least a part of the area of the liquid crystal layer that the first area does not include. The first electrode has a shape which in cooperation with the second electrode allow alignment of the LC molecules in substantially two orthogonal directions. The invention provides a method to get rid of the circular polarizers which provide a good on-axis aperture but which show reduced off-axis performance compared to linear polarizers.

Abstract: An electromagnetic digitizer (18) having a sensor segment (30,34,36,38) that includes a generally longitudinal network of conductive lines (32). Two or more conductive lines (32) are coupled in parallel. To enhance sensitivity, the adjacent lines (32) are interconnected along the longitudinal structure, using interconnections (40) in the form of short lines, oriented at an angle. The sensor segments (30,34,36,38) may be miniaturized, to facilitate integration into a display module (12) using semiconductor fabrication processes. Various sensor array structures may be implemented using the sensor segment structures. The sensor array may include longitudinal sensor segments arranged in a parallel array. To further enhancing sensitivity of the sensor array, additional lines may be provided between adjacent longitudinal sensor segments. The sensor array may also include half loop (or U-shaped) sensor segments arranged in an overlapping parallel array, or full loop sensor segments arranged in an overlapping parallel array.

Abstract: An electroluminescent device ( 21 ) comprises a first ( 23 ) and a second ( 26 ) electrode layer, at least the second electrode layer ( 26 ) being provided in accordance with a desired pattern and one or more functional layers ( 24, 25 R, 25 G, 25 B), the one or at least one of said functional layers being an electroluminescent layer. In order to pattern the second electrode layer ( 26 ) the EL device ( 21 ) comprises a relief pattern ( 27 ) having one or more overhanging sections ( 29 ). The EL device has means for hindering the transport of fluid along a capillary channel ( 33 ) formed by an overhanging section ( 29 ) and the surface ( 28 a) supporting that section, an example of such means being protrusions ( 35 ) which block and/or reroute the capillary channel ( 33 ). Thus the transport of fluid by the channels ( 33 ) during manufacture of the EL device is hindered and color bleeding between pixels of the EL device and/or leakage current among electrodes of the first electrode layer is prevented.

The control operation further comprises, performing frame mixing comprising providing said driver data as either representing said first mapped data or an increment thereof. The additional bit is, inter alia, used to enable representation of said increment.

Abstract: A method for controlling printing actions of a print head (1) comprising pumps (10) filled with ink (18), and actuators (16) for generating actuation pulses acting on the ink(18), comprises the step of determining a characteristic frequency of the pumps (10). As the characteristic frequency of the pumps (10) is directly related to the geometry of the pumps (10), the characteristic frequency can be used as an indicator of the state of the pumps (10) and the volume of the ink droplets emitted by the pumps (10). In case a slight change of the characteristic frequency is detected, the actuation pulse is adjusted in order to still meet the requirements regarding the volume of the ink droplets. In case a relatively large change of the characteristic frequency is detected, the printing action of the pump (10) concerned is stopped, and may be taken over by another pump (10).
