Multi‐color LC/BL algorithm in field‐sequential‐color LCD for color‐breakup suppression

— The proposed liquid-crystal and backlight (LC/BL) algorithm presents the dynamic field-sequential-color (D-FSC) algorithm to reduce the color-breakup (CBU) effect without greatly increasing the subframe rate. The D-FSC algorithm can intelligently select one adequate color sequence from multiple color sequences according to the image data. In other words, the scope of CBU suppression of the proposed LC/BL algorithm is more extensive than other conventional FSCs. Simulation results show that the CBU suppression can be improved substantially by the proposed evaluation equation.
