Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090096745 | APPROACH TO ADJUST DRIVING WAVEFORMS FOR A DISPLAY DEVICE - The present invention is directed to methods for adjusting or selecting driving waveforms in order to achieve a consistent optical performance of a display device. When a method of the present invention is applied, even if there are changes in the display medium due to temperature variation, photo-exposure or aging, the optical performance can be maintained at a desired level. | 04-16-2009 |
20100194789 | PARTIAL IMAGE UPDATE FOR ELECTROPHORETIC DISPLAYS - The present invention is directed to methods for partial image updates. Such methods provide the display controller the ability to update selected areas of an image that require updating and leave other areas unchanged. The methods also allow for multiple waveforms to be used for specific regions, giving the display the capability of updating each region with its own waveform. | 08-05-2010 |
20110216104 | DRIVING METHODS FOR ELECTROPHORETIC DISPLAYS - The driving system and methods of the present invention enable interruption of updating images. The system and methods have the advantage that they not only can speed up the updating process when more than one command is received consecutively in a short period of time, but also can provide a more smooth transition visually during the updating process. | 09-08-2011 |
20110273363 | COMPOSITE DISPLAY MODULES - The present invention provides composite display modules which have reduced visible dead space between display modules. This is of particular interest for the price rail, where it is desirable to achieve a long (about 3-4 ft) section of an active module. The present invention is directed to a composite display module comprising: (a) more than one single display module, wherein said single display modules are not edge-sealed and they are mounted on a single back support structure and are kept tightly close to each other right up to their edges; and (b) said composite display module is edge sealed. | 11-10-2011 |
20120274671 | DRIVING BISTABLE DISPLAYS - The disclosure relates to waveforms, circuits and methods for driving bistable displays. | 11-01-2012 |
20130342892 | PIEZO ELECTROPHORETIC DISPLAY - The invention is directed to a variety of designs of piezo electrophoretic displays which may be driven without connecting to a power source. The piezo-electrophoretic display comprises an electrophoretic layer, a conductor layer, and a layer of piezo material. The processes for manufacturing the piezo electrophoretic displays are also provided. | 12-26-2013 |
20140055840 | COLOR TUNING FOR ELECTROPHORETIC DISPLAY DEVICE - The present invention is directed to color tuning methods for electrophoretic display devices. For example, a color tuning agent may be added to a composition for forming a display cell structure or a primer layer. Alternatively, a separate color tuning layer may be added to a display device. Further, a color tuning agent may be added to an electrophoretic display fluid. The color tuning methods are useful for adjusting the color temperature of a display device. | 02-27-2014 |
20140065369 | MICROSTRUCTURE FILM - The present invention is directed to a microstructure film comprising an area of microstructures and two edge areas, wherein the height of the highest part in the edge areas exceeds the height of the highest point in the microstructures, preferably by about 1 μm to about 1 mm. The application also describes how such a film may be manufactured. | 03-06-2014 |
20140300651 | DRIVING BISTABLE DISPLAYS - The invention relates to waveforms, circuits and methods for driving bistable displays. The invention is directed to a method, comprising in combination: applying, across a bistable display device, a shaking signal comprising a plurality of positive and negative pulses each driven for a first time to disperse partially packed particles; applying, across the device, one or more first driving signals to first pixels of the device for second times that are sufficient to drive the first pixels to one or more reference states; and concurrently with the first driving signals, applying, across the device, one or more second driving signals to second pixels of the device for third times that are shorter than necessary to drive the second pixels to any of the one or more reference states. | 10-09-2014 |
