It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.



FIG. 1 is an implementation environment diagram of a backlight calibration method provided by one embodiment. As illustrated in FIG. 1, in the implementation environment, a control module 100, a backlight module 200, and a detection module 300 are included.


The control module 100 is a module that is disposed in display equipment and controls other elements of the display equipment, which can be a central processing unit (CPU), a system on chip (SoC), a graphics processing unit (GPU), an integrated circuit, or a control circuit. The backlight module 200 is a module that provides a backlight for the display equipment, and is a backlight source of the display equipment. The detection module 300 is a module configured to obtain backlight parameters of the backlight module 200 and is disposed toward the backlight module 200. In using processes, the control module 100 controls the backlight module 200 to light up, then obtains corresponding backlight parameters through the detection module 300, and then determines the backlight type of the display equipment according to the backlight parameters and corresponds to a mode and parameters of the backlight calibration correspondingly.


It should be noted that the control module 100, the backlight module 200, and the detection module 300 can be connected by wired, wireless or other communication connection methods with each other, which is not limited by the present invention herein.


As illustrated in FIG. 2, in one embodiment, a backlight calibration method is provided. The backlight calibration method can be used in the aforesaid control module 100 and can specifically include following steps.

    • Step S100: obtaining the backlight parameters of the display equipment.
    • Step S200: determining a backlight type corresponding to the backlight parameters.
    • Step S300: performing backlight calibration on the display equipment according to the backlight type.


In one embodiment of the present disclosure, when the backlight type used by the display device is determined, the backlight module 200 needs to be lit up first, and then the backlight parameters of the display equipment are collected through the detection module 300. After the corresponding backlight parameters are obtained, the backlight type adopted in the display equipment can be determined according to the backlight parameters, and then the backlight calibration mode can be determined according to the backlight type. When the backlight type is a traditional backlight, the traditional backlight method can be adopted to perform backlight calibration on the display equipment. When the backlight type is the mini-LED backlight, the new backlight calibration method can be adopted to perform backlight calibration on the display equipment.


In the present disclosure, through the aforesaid solution, the backlight type of the display equipment is automatically distinguished, and the technical problem of easily misusing parameters during backlight calibration in the prior art is solved.


Specifically, in some embodiments, a specific embodiment of the step S100 can refer to FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is a detailed description of the step S100 in the backlight calibration method illustrated according to the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 2. In the backlight calibration method, the detection module 300 is a detector that can detect a bright area in a unit area, such as camera equipment, an infrared equipment, etc. The detection module 300 is disposed on a backlight control board of the display equipment. The backlight control board is disposed in a non-display region of the display equipment. The step S100 can include following steps.

    • Step S101: driving all the backlight sources in a predetermined region directly faced by the detector.
    • Step S102: obtaining a bright image of the predetermined region.
    • Step S103: determining the backlight parameters according to the bright image.


In this embodiment, the dependent backlight parameters for judging the backlight type adopted in the display equipment can include at least one of a bright area proportion or brightness density.


Wherein, a method of obtaining the bright area proportion is obtaining the bright image of the backlight sources through the detection module 300 after the backlight sources are lit up, and determining the bright area proportion in the bright image, and then the bright area proportion is obtained.


A method of obtaining the brightness density is obtaining the bright image of the backlight sources through the detection module 300 after the backlight sources are lit up, and determining a density of bright spots in the bright image, and then the brightness density is obtained.


In the aforesaid detection process, the detection module 300 needs to be disposed on the display equipment and the backlight control board. The backlight control board is disposed in a non-display region of the display equipment, and a plurality of backlight sources are disposed in the non-display region.


After corresponding backlight parameters are obtained, the backlight type corresponding to the backlight parameters can be determined, and Specific methods can refer to embodiments illustrated in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5.


Specifically, in some embodiments, a specific embodiment of the step S200 can refer to FIG. 4. FIG. 4 is a detailed description of the step S200 in the backlight calibration method illustrated according to the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 3. In the backlight calibration method, the backlight parameters includes a bright area proportion. The step S200 can include following steps.

    • Step S201: if the bright area proportion is less than a predetermined proportion threshold value, then the bright area proportion corresponds to a first backlight type.
    • Step S202: if the bright area proportion is greater than the predetermined proportion threshold value, then the bright area proportion corresponds to a second backlight type.


In this embodiment, the backlight type used by the display equipment is judged according to whether the bright area proportion is less than the predetermined proportion threshold value.


Compared to traditional backlights, the mini-LED backlights are disposed corresponding to each pixel or sub-pixel, and an area of light generated by the backlights can be narrower compared to the traditional backlights. Therefore, if the bright area proportion is less than the predetermined proportion threshold value, the mini-LED backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the first backlight type, and the corresponding first backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration. If the bright area proportion is greater than the predetermined proportion threshold value, the traditional backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the second backlight type, and the traditional second backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration at this time.


Wherein, the predetermined proportion threshold value is a basis for judging the backlight type adopted by the display equipment. Because light-dispersing parts, such as diffusion sheets, etc. can used in in traditional backlights, theoretically, the bright area proportion under traditional backlights should be infinitely close to 100%. Furthermore, the mini-LED backlights are disposed corresponding to each pixel or each sub-pixel, so the bright area under the mini-LED backlights is relative to a pixel density. Therefore, the predetermined proportion threshold value can be 95%, 98%, 99%, etc., which is not limited in this disclosure.


Specifically, in some embodiments, a specific embodiment of the step S200 can refer to FIG. 5. FIG. 5 is a detailed description of the step S200 in the backlight calibration method illustrated according to the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 3. In the backlight calibration method, the backlight parameters includes a brightness density. The step S200 can include following steps.

    • Step S203: if the brightness density is greater than a predetermined density threshold value, then the bright area proportion corresponds to a first backlight type.
    • Step S204: if the brightness density is less than the predetermined density threshold value, then the bright area proportion corresponds to a second backlight type.


In this embodiment, the backlight type used by the display equipment is judged according to whether the brightness density is greater than the predetermined density threshold value.


Compared to traditional backlights, the mini-LED backlights are disposed corresponding to each pixel or sub-pixel, arrangement of light beads of the backlight is tight and dense and a number of generated light spots is also small and dense. Therefore, if the brightness density is greater than the predetermined density threshold value, the mini-LED backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the first backlight type, and the corresponding first backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration at this time. If the brightness density is less than the predetermined density threshold value, the traditional backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the second backlight type, and the traditional second backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration at this time. Wherein, the predetermined density threshold value is a basis for judging the backlight type adopted by the display equipment. Because light-dispersing parts, such as diffusion sheets, etc., can used in traditional backlights, theoretically, only one uniform light spot can generate in the traditional backlight, and the brightness density is 1. Furthermore, the mini-LED backlights are disposed corresponding to each pixel or each sub-pixel, so the brightness density under the mini-LED backlights is relative to the pixel density. In a precondition that an area of a region of the bright image obtained by the detection module 300 is not large, the predetermined density threshold value can be 9, 10, 20, etc., which is not limited in the present disclosure.


Specifically, in some embodiments, a specific embodiment of the step S200 can refer to FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a detailed description of the step S200 in the backlight calibration method illustrated according to the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 2. The backlight parameters include backlight brightness, and the backlight parameters include the brightness density. The step S200 can include following steps.

    • Step S210: if the backlight brightness is greater than a predetermined brightness threshold value, then the backlight brightness corresponds to the first backlight type.
    • Step S220: if the backlight brightness is less than the predetermined brightness threshold value, then the backlight brightness corresponds to the second backlight type.


In this embodiment, backlight type adopted by the display embodiment is judged according to whether the backlight brightness is greater than the predetermined brightness threshold value.


Wherein, a method of obtaining the backlight brightness is obtaining the backlight generated by the backlight module 200 through the detection module 300 with a photosensitive device. The photosensitive device converts the brightness of the backlight into an electrical signal, so the brightness corresponding to the backlight can be obtained.


Compared to traditional backlights, brightness of the mini-LED backlights is higher. Therefore, if the backlight brightness is greater than the predetermined brightness threshold value, the mini-LED backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the first backlight type, and the corresponding first backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration at this time. If the backlight brightness is less than the predetermined brightness threshold value, the traditional backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the second backlight type, and the traditional second backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration at this time. Wherein, the predetermined brightness threshold value is a basis for judging the backlight type adopted in the display equipment, which value can be 500 nit, 550 nit, 600 nit, etc., and is not limited by the present disclosure herein.


Specifically, in some embodiments, a specific embodiment of the step S200 can refer to FIG. 7. FIG. 7 is a detailed description of the step S200 in the backlight calibration method illustrated according to the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 2. The backlight parameters include a backlight temperature, and the backlight parameters include the brightness density. The step S200 can include following steps.

    • Step S230: if the backlight temperature is greater than a predetermined temperature threshold value, then the backlight temperature corresponds to the first backlight type.
    • Step S240: if the backlight temperature is less than the predetermined temperature threshold value, then the backlight temperature corresponds to a second backlight type.


In this embodiment, backlight type adopted by the display embodiment is determined according to whether the backlight temperature is greater than the predetermined temperature threshold value.


Wherein, a method of obtaining the backlight brightness is obtaining an environmental temperature around the backlight module 200 through the detection module 300 with a thermosensitive device. The thermosensitive device converts the environmental temperature into an electrical signal, so the backlight temperature corresponding to the backlight can be obtained.


In some other embodiments of the present disclosure, a method of obtaining the backlight brightness can also be obtaining an infrared light wave emitted from the backlight module 200 through the detection module 300 with an infrared component. The infrared component can obtain the backlight temperature corresponding to the backlight according to a wave length by calculating the wave length of the infrared.


Compared to the traditional backlights, the mini-LED backlight generates more heat when it emits light, so the temperature is also higher. Therefore, if the backlight temperature is greater than the predetermined temperature threshold value, the mini-LED backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the first backlight type, and the corresponding first backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration at this time. If the backlight temperature is less than the predetermined temperature threshold value, the traditional backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the second backlight type, and the traditional second backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration at this time.


Wherein, the predetermined temperature threshold value is a basis for determining the backlight type adopted in the display equipment, which value can be 50 degrees, 60 degrees, etc., and is not limited by the present disclosure herein.


Specifically, in some embodiments, a specific embodiment of the step S200 can refer to FIG. 8. FIG. 8 is a detailed description of the step S200 in the backlight calibration method illustrated according to the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 2. The backlight parameters include the backlight temperature, and the backlight parameters include the brightness density. The step S200 can include following steps.

    • Step S250: if the backlight brightness is greater than the predetermined brightness threshold value and the backlight temperature is greater than the predetermined brightness threshold value, then the backlight brightness corresponds to the first backlight type.
    • Step S260: if the backlight brightness is less than the predetermined brightness threshold value and the backlight temperature is less than the predetermined brightness threshold value, then the backlight brightness corresponds to the second backlight type.


In this embodiment, backlight type adopted by the display embodiment is judged according to whether the backlight brightness is greater than the predetermined brightness threshold value and whether the backlight temperature is greater than the predetermined temperature threshold value.


Therefore, if the backlight brightness is greater than the predetermined brightness threshold value, and the backlight temperature is greater than the predetermined temperature threshold value, then the mini-LED backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the first backlight type, and the corresponding first backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration at this time. If the backlight brightness is less than the predetermined brightness threshold value, the backlight temperature is less than the predetermined temperature threshold value, the traditional backlights adopted in the display equipment is proved, i.e., the backlight type is the second backlight type, and the traditional second backlight calibration method needs to be matched to perform the backlight calibration at this time. If the measured backlight brightness is less than the predetermined brightness threshold value and the backlight temperature is greater than the predetermined temperature threshold value at the same time; and the backlight brightness is greater than the predetermined brightness threshold value and the backlight temperature is less than the predetermined temperature threshold value at the same time, then it proves that the data is wrong. Another measurement needs to be executed again, or an error alarm is sent to relevant maintenance operators, so that the relevant maintenance operators can check whether fault exists in the display equipment.


In this embodiment, the backlight brightness and backlight temperature are both used as the basis for judging the backlight type of the display equipment, which can further increase accuracy of the determination and can avoid misjudgment. Especially, when one of the measured temperature or brightness is close to the judgement threshold value, another one can be used as a basis for verifying the accuracy of the result. Meanwhile, when the judgement result conflicts, a plurality of measurements can also be performed to correct the judgement result; or an absolute value of the larger difference from the threshold value can be selected as the only basis for judgement; or the error alarm is sent to the relevant maintenance operator, so the relevant maintenance operator can check whether fault exists in the display equipment.


For example, the predetermined temperature threshold value is 50 degrees, the predetermined brightness threshold value is 600 nit, the detection result is that the backlight temperature is 49 degrees, and the backlight brightness is 800 nit. The backlight brightness 800 nit is the only basis for determination, and the test results are sent to the relevant maintenance operator, so that they can confirm whether fault appears in the equipment.


Specifically, in some embodiments, a specific embodiment of the step S300 can refer to FIG. 9. FIG. 9 is a detailed description of the step S300 in the backlight calibration method illustrated according to the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 2. The backlight parameters include the backlight temperature, and the backlight parameters include the brightness density. The step S300 can include following steps.

    • Step S310: if the backlight type is the first backlight type, then the backlight calibration is performed by a first backlight calibration parameter; and
    • S320: if the backlight type is the second backlight type, then the backlight calibration is performed by a second backlight calibration parameter.


Wherein, the first backlight calibration parameter is less than the second backlight calibration parameter.


In this embodiment, when the backlight type is the first backlight type, i.e., the mini-LED backlight, the first backlight calibration method is used. By adopting a relatively small first backlight calibration parameter, change of a binding-point register value from a driver is controlled in a relatively small amplitude, so an adjustment range of brightness of a binding point is made to be in a relatively small range, thereby making the adjustment range of grayscale brightness also be in a relatively small range. Thus, overall calibration range of the screen being not large is ensured, and overall washout of the screen after calibration affecting display effect is avoided. When the backlight type is the second backlight type, i.e., the traditional backlight, the second backlight calibration method is used. By adopting a traditional second backlight calibration parameter, change of the binding-point register value from the driver is controlled in a normal amplitude, and overall calibration amplitude of the screen is ensured to be normal. wherein the aforesaid first backlight calibration parameter and second backlight calibration parameter are different gamma calibration parameters.
