Systems and methods for correcting ambient-light illuminance differences of ambient light directed onto regions of a display

Abstract:

An apparatus includes a display, a memory, a light sensor array and a light source array. The light source array emits light to display an image on the display. A controller is configured to receive a sensor output from each light sensor in the light sensor array. An ambient-light illuminance difference between a first illuminance of a first ambient light externally directed onto a first region of the displayed image of the display and a second illuminance of a second ambient light externally directed respectively onto a second region of the displayed image of the display is computed. Light source controls of light sources of the light source array are varied to change a luminous emittance of the light source array within the at least one second region of the displayed image so as to reduce a luminance difference between the first region and the second region of the displayed image.
