The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of three-dimensional display technology, and in particular to a method, device, system, computer program and computer readable storage medium for processing shutter-type three-dimensional image display.
With the development of display technology, three-dimensional (3D) stereo display technology has become one of the important technologies used in a display device. Active shutter-type 3D display technology is a 3D display technology that can be implemented at a low cost. Active shutter-type 3D display technology achieves 3D effect by increasing the refresh rate of images and meanwhile by the aid of rapid switch of 3D glasses, thereby allowing a viewer's eyes to watch corresponding left-eye and right-eye images, and thus producing the stereoscopic effect.
Although the active shutter-type 3D display method can display 3D images, there are problems of left-eye and right-eye image crosstalk phenomenon, 3D image blurring and the like due to vision duration effect, which severely affects the 3D viewing effect. In the prior art, the crosstalk phenomenon of 3D images is generally reduced by a method of inserting a black frame, or a method inserting the image of a previous frame (i.e., continuously giving images of two same frames).
The method of inserting a black frame is mainly characterized in that inserting a black picture between display of a left-eye image and display of a right-eye image. That is, during the process of displaying a frame of a 3D image, a display device 01 displays a left-eye image L, a black picture B, a right-eye image R and a black picture B in sequence, as shown in
The above method can reduce the crosstalk of 3D images to some extent, however since deflection of liquid crystal molecules in the display device needs a certain time for response, the liquid crystal molecules in the upper portion of the display device have already started to rotate when the display device starts to display the black picture after displaying the left-eye and right-eye images, thus causing the picture to get black gradually. Whereas at the same time, since the liquid crystal molecules in the lower portion of the display device have not rotated yet, the picture still remains in the image of the last frame. On the other hand, when the display device starts to display the right(left)-eye image after displaying the black picture, the liquid crystal molecules in the upper portion of the display device have already started to rotate, causing the picture to gradually become the right(left)-eye image. Whereas at the same time, since the liquid crystal molecules in the lower portion of the display device have not rotated yet, the picture still remains in the black picture. This will result in unevenness of the brightness distribution of the whole display device.
Therefore, although the above method of inserting a black frame can reduce crosstalk to certain extent, it will degrade the evenness of brightness of the display device, and thus deteriorate the display quality.
Additionally, the method of inserting the image of the previous frame is mainly characterized in that inserting the image of the previous frame respectively after display of the left-eye image and the display of the right-eye image. That is, during the process of displaying a frame of a 3D image, the display device 01 displays a first frame of left-eye image L1, a second frame of left-eye image L2, a first frame of right-eye image R1, and a second frame of right-eye image R2 in sequence, as shown in
When the above method is used for display, it needs to control the turn-on time of the backlight module. Supposing that the display device scans in a top-to-bottom manner, if the backlight module is turned on at the time of displaying the first frame of left(right)-eye image, the liquid crystal in the upper portion of the display device has completed rotation, the upper portion of the display device displays the first frame of left(right)-eye image. Whereas at the same time, since the rotation of the liquid crystal in the lower portion of the display device is not quick enough, the liquid crystal in the lower portion does not complete rotation yet. Therefore, crosstalk of the image of the last frame will be introduced into the lower portion of the display device. Therefore the crosstalk value of the lower portion of the display device will be large. On the other hand, if the backlight module is turned on at the time of displaying the second frame of left(right)-eye image, when the liquid crystals in the lower portion of the display device have all completely rotated, although crosstalk will not be introduced into the lower portion of the display device (because its image of the last frame is exactly the same as the image of this frame), the upper portion of the display device has started to be filled with the image of the next frame. Therefore the image of the next frame is introduced into the upper portion of the display device, causing the crosstalk value of the upper portion of the display device to be large.
Accordingly, although the evenness of the brightness of the display device is better when the above method of inserting the image of the previous frame is used, the image crosstalk value is still very large.
In conclusion, it is a problem urgently to be solved by a person skilled in the art to ensure both good brightness evenness of the display device and smaller image crosstalk value during display when realizing 3D display.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a method, device, system, computer program and computer readable storage medium for processing shutter-type three-dimensional image display so as to decrease the crosstalk value of the image during three-dimensional image display on the premise of ensuring good brightness evenness of the display device.

The First Embodiment of the present invention provides a method for processing shutter-type three-dimensional image display, as shown in
In step S301, image signals to be displayed are received, and the received each frame of image signal is processed to generate a corresponding three-dimensional image signal sequence that includes monocular frame image signals.
In step S302, a monocular frame mixed image signal corresponding to each monocular frame image signal is generated according to a gate line scanning direction of the display device. Here, the monocular frame mixed image signal includes a part of successive monocular frame image signals and a part of successive black picture image signals. Preferably, the monocular frame mixed image signal only consists of a part of the successive monocular frame image signals and a part of the successive black picture image signals.
In step S303, a corresponding monocular frame mixed image signal is inserted after the monocular frame image signal in the three-dimensional image signal sequence to generate a new three-dimensional image signal sequence. Preferably, the corresponding monocular frame mixed image signal is inserted immediately after the monocular frame image signal in the three-dimensional image signal sequence.
In step S304, the new three-dimensional image signal sequence is sent to the display device for display.
In the above processing method for shutter-type three-dimensional image display provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention, as compared with the current processing method, a corresponding monocular frame mixed image signal that includes a part of successive monocular frame image signals and a part of successive black picture image signals is inserted after the monocular frame image signal. Therefore at the time of 3D image display, since the monocular frame mixed image signal includes part of the monocular frame image signals and part of the black picture image signals, the 3D image crosstalk phenomenon can be efficiently improved. Moreover, since the monocular frame mixed image signal only has part of the black picture image signals, a better brightness evenness can be obtained in display by reducing the proportion of the black picture image signals in the monocular frame mixed image signal.
To be specific, in specific implementation, in the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention, 3D image signals may be received in step S301. And then, frequency multiplication processing is performed on the 3D image signals to generate a corresponding three-dimensional image signal sequence that includes monocular frame image signals. Optionally, 2D image signals may also be received in the step S301. The 2D image signals are firstly processed into 3D image signals, and then the 3D image signals are subjected to frequency multiplication processing to generate a three-dimensional image signal sequence that includes monocular frame image signals. The above mentioned is not limited hereto.
Furthermore, the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention may be a real-time processing method. That is, once a frame of image signal to be displayed is received and processed, and the processed image signal is sent to the display device for display. Then, the next frame of image signal to be displayed is received, processed and sent, and so on. Obviously, the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention may also be an off-line processing method. That is, all image signals to be displayed are received, all received image signals to be displayed are processed and then they are sent to the display device for display. The above mentioned is not limited hereto.
Preferably, in the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention, the step of generating a monocular frame mixed image signal corresponding to each monocular frame image signal according to a gate line scanning direction of the display device may specifically include:
combining the monocular frame image signals corresponding to former N rows of gate lines along the gate line scanning direction with the black picture image signals corresponding to latter M−N rows of gate lines along the gate line scanning direction to generate the monocular frame mixed image signal corresponding to the monocular frame image signal. Herein, M is a number of gate lines in the display device, and N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1 and smaller than M.
It should be pointed out that in the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention, the monocular frame image signal refers to one of a left-eye image signal for displaying a left-eye image and a right-eye image signal for displaying a right-eye image. In addition, the monocular frame mixed image signal refers to one of a left-eye mixed image signal corresponding to the left-eye image signal and a right-eye mixed image signal corresponding to the right-eye image signal.
Preferably, in the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention, when the gate line scanning direction of the display device is from top to bottom, according to the new three-dimensional image signal sequence (i.e., left-eye image signal, left-eye mixed image signal, right-eye image signal, and right-eye mixed image signal) received by the display device, it displays in sequence the left-eye image L, part of the left-eye image L′+black picture B (i.e., the upper portion of the display panel of the display device displays the corresponding the upper portion of the left-eye image, and the lower portion thereof displays the black picture), the right-eye image R, and part of the right-eye image R′+black picture B (i.e., the upper portion of the display panel of the display device displays the corresponding the upper portion of the right-eye image, and the lower portion thereof displays the black picture), as shown in
Preferably, in the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention, when the gate line scanning direction of the display device is from bottom to top, according to the new three-dimensional image signal sequence (i.e., left-eye image signal, left-eye mixed image signal, right-eye image signal, and right-eye mixed image signal) received by the display device, it displays in sequence the left-eye image L, black picture B+part of the left-eye image L′ (i.e., the upper portion of the display panel of the display device displays the black picture, and the lower portion thereof displays the corresponding the lower portion of the left-eye image), the right-eye image R, and part of the right-eye image R′+black picture B (i.e., the upper portion of the display panel of the display device displays the black picture, and the lower portion thereof displays the corresponding the lower portion of the right-eye image), as shown in
Preferably, in the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention, the value of N is determined according to an actual crosstalk value and an actually required brightness evenness value of the display device.
Preferably, in specific implementation, in the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention, for example, the generated new three-dimensional image signal sequence is: the left-eye image signal, left-eye image signals corresponding to the former N rows of gate lines along the gate line scanning direction of the display device+the black picture image signals corresponding to latter M−N rows of gate lines along the gate line scanning direction of the display device, the right-eye image signal, right-eye image signals corresponding to the former N rows of gate lines along the gate line scanning direction of the display device+the black picture image signals corresponding to latter M−N rows of gate lines along the gate line scanning direction of the display device.
When the selected value of N is small, i.e., the black picture image signals account for a larger portion in the monocular frame mixed image signal. Therefore, when the display device is displaying, when it starts to display the monocular frame image corresponding to the monocular frame image signal after displaying the monocular frame mixed image corresponding to the monocular frame mixed image signal, the liquid crystal in the upper portion of the display panel in the display device has already started to rotate, and the upper portion of the display panel displays a monocular image corresponding to the monocular image signal. Meanwhile, the liquid crystal in the lower portion of the display panel has not started to rotate yet, and the lower portion of the display panel still remains in the black picture image corresponding to the monocular frame mixed image signal of the last frame. Therefore, the overall brightness evenness of the display panel in the display device is poor.
As opposed to the above, when the selected value of N is large, i.e., the black picture image signals account for a smaller portion in the monocular frame mixed image signal. Therefore, when the display device is displaying, when it starts to display the monocular frame image corresponding to the monocular frame image signal after displaying the monocular frame mixed image corresponding to the monocular frame mixed image signal, the liquid crystal in the upper portion of the display panel in the display device has already started to rotate, and the upper portion of the display panel displays a monocular image corresponding to the monocular image signal. Meanwhile, the liquid crystal in the lower portion of the display panel has not started to rotate yet, and the lower portion of the display panel still remains in the monocular frame image corresponding to the monocular frame mixed image signal of the last frame and the bottommost black picture. Therefore, there will be small image crosstalk in the lower portion of the display panel in the display device, but the overall brightness evenness of the display panel in the display device is good.
Therefore, the value of N can be determined according to an actual crosstalk value and an actually required brightness evenness value of the display device. For example, when the display device is actually applied, the value of N can be increased if the brightness evenness is regarded to be more important than image crosstalk. As opposed to it, the value of N can be decreased if the brightness evenness is regarded to be less important than image crosstalk.
Preferably, the above processing method provided in the First Embodiment of the present invention may further include:
determining a shutter glasses control signal according to the new three-dimensional image signal sequence. The shutter glasses control signal is used to control the on-off state of the shutter glasses.
Furthermore, in specific implementation, when the display device displays a left-eye image corresponding to the left-eye image signal, the shutter glasses control signal controls the left lens of the shutter glasses to be turned on, and the right lens to be turned off. When the display device displays a right-eye image corresponding to the right-eye image signal, the shutter glasses control signal controls the right lens of the shutter glasses to be turned on, and the left lens to be turned off. When the display device displays the left(right)-eye mixed image picture corresponding to the left(right)-eye mixed image signal, the shutter glasses control signal controls the both the left and right lenses of the shutter glasses to be turned off.
Furthermore, in specific implementation, the timings for the shutter glasses control signal to control the shutter glasses to be turned on and turned off can be regulated according to the actual display conditions. No limitation is made herein.

determining a backlight module control signal according to the new three-dimensional image signal sequence. The backlight module control signal is used for controlling a turning-on time and a turning-on width of a sparkling backlight module in the display device.
Furthermore, in specific implementation, the backlight module control signal controls the sparkling backlight module in the display device to be turned on when the display device displays the monocular frame image corresponding to the monocular frame image signal. The backlight module control signal controls the sparkling backlight module in the display device to be turned off when the display device displays the monocular frame mixed image corresponding to the monocular frame mixed image signal.
Furthermore, in specific implementation, the timings for the backlight module control signal to control the sparkling backlight module in the display device to turned on and turned off can be regulated according to the actual display conditions. No limitation is made herein.

Therefore at the time of 3D image display, since the monocular frame mixed image signal includes part of the monocular frame image signals and part of the black picture image signals, the 3D image crosstalk phenomenon can be efficiently improved. Moreover, since the monocular frame mixed image signal only has part of the black picture image signals, a better brightness evenness can be obtained in display by reducing the proportion of the black picture image signals in the monocular frame mixed image signal.

Afterwards, the device 601 for processing shutter-type three-dimensional image display sends the new three-dimensional image signal sequence to the display device 602 for display.
The display device 602 is used for receiving the new three-dimensional image signal sequence sent by the device for processing shutter-type three-dimensional image display, and displaying according to the new three-dimensional image signal sequence.
In the above system for shutter-type three-dimensional image display provided in the Third Embodiment of the present invention, a corresponding monocular frame mixed image signal that includes a part of the successive monocular frame image signals and a part of the successive black picture image signals is inserted after the monocular frame image signal. Therefore at the time of 3D image display, since the monocular frame mixed image signal includes part of the monocular frame image signals and part of the black picture image signals, the 3D image crosstalk phenomenon can be efficiently improved. Moreover, since the monocular frame mixed image signal only has part of the black picture image signals, a better brightness evenness can be obtained in display by reducing the proportion of the black picture image signals in the monocular frame mixed image signal.
Preferably, for the purpose of facilitating implementation, the above system provided in the Third Embodiment of the present invention, as shown in
