High resolution subpixel and subframe rendering for color flatpanel and projector displays

The heightened interest by the consumers on color flatpanel and projector displays is evidenced by the excitement surrounding LCD display in smartphones, color e-papers, and pico projectors. In this paper, we provide a new foundation for designing high fidelity displays in novel formfactors. We introduce a rendering error cancellation embedding technique that will increase the spatial resolution in color flatpanels without making changes to the display hardware. It makes subpixel “upsampling” in flatpanel displays almost unnecessary; and eliminate rainbow artifacts in single-chip projector displays.
