31
Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) Displays Chun-Han Lin, NTNU
32
Mobile OLED Displays OLED is deemed promising technology to replace LCD for mobile displays –Brighter colors, wider viewing angles, faster response times, etc. –Power consumption increases dramatically with the pixel values of the displayed image Chun-Han Lin, NTNU
33
Low-Power Techniques for OLED Displays Partial display disabling or dimming –Darken the contents that are not of interest –Impact user perception Color remapping –Change colors into colors that consume less power –Suit for GUI but not natural images OLED dynamic voltage scaling –Decrease the supply voltage of each pixel’s circuit –Require hardware support and partition the display into rectangular regions Chun-Han Lin, NTNU
34
Inspired by Human Visual Attention Different regions in an image –Receive varying degrees of visual attention –Can tolerate different degrees of image distortion Chun-Han Lin, NTNU
35
Quality-Retaining Power Saving Technique Image pixel scaling Segmentation Scaling Combination Chun-Han Lin, NTNU
36
Fast and optimal without accurate OLED power models Distortion (SSIM) Analysis Attention (Itti) Perception (JND) Conversion Optimal Algorithm Chun-Han Lin, NTNU
37
Visual Attention Not every region in an image receives the same attention level Image can be segmented based on its saliency map into a set of attention regions The saliency map indicates a saliency value for each pixel in an image Chun-Han Lin, NTNU
38
Image Distortion Different regions in an image receive varying degrees of attention Different regions can tolerate different degrees of image distortion. Attention regions should be given tolerable distortion in inverse proportion to their attention levels Chun-Han Lin, NTNU
39
Perception Lowering the pixel values by applying the critical scaling ratio to each region may result in sharp edges between adjacent regions These sharp edges will severely interfere with visual experience The difference between the scaling ratios applied to two adjacent regions should be limited Chun-Han Lin, NTNU
