Abstract

An electro-optical device and method for displaying an image are disclosed. A clear image with a clear profile can be displayed therein by processing input image data, for example input image data of TV broadcasting received by the device.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device comprising: 
 processing a first image signal into a second image signal; and    inputting the second image signal to a pixel,    wherein the first image signal comprises a first signal level at a first point and a second signal level at a second point,    wherein the second image signal comprises the first signal level at the first point of the first image signal, the second signal level at the second point of the first image signal and a third signal level at a third point,    wherein the third point is located between the first point and the second point,    wherein a signal level of the first image signal varies from the first signal level to the second signal level, and    wherein a signal level of the second image signal increases from the first signal level to the third signal level, and decreases from the third signal level to the second signal level.    
   
   
       2 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device according to  claim 1 , wherein the second image signal is emphasized the first image signal at a boundary.  
   
   
       3 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device according to  claim 1 , wherein the liquid crystal device is driven by a line sequential scanning system.  
   
   
       4 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device according to  claim 1 , wherein the first image signal is an input signal.  
   
   
       5 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device according to  claim 1 , wherein the second image signal is an output signal.  
   
   
       6 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device comprising: 
 processing a first image signal into a second image signal; and    inputting the second image signal to a pixel,    wherein the first image signal comprises a first signal level at a first point and a second signal level at a second point,    wherein the second image signal comprises the first signal level at the first point of the first image signal, the second signal level at the second point of the first image signal and a third signal level at a third point,    wherein the third point is located between the first point and the second point,    wherein a signal level of the first image signal decreases from the first signal level to the second signal level, and    wherein a signal level of the second image signal decreases from the first signal level to the third signal level, and increases from the third signal level to the second signal level.    
   
   
       7 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device according to  claim 6 , wherein the second image signal is emphasized the first image signal at a boundary.  
   
   
       8 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device according to  claim 6 , wherein the liquid crystal device is driven by a line sequential scanning system.  
   
   
       9 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device according to  claim 6 , wherein the first image signal is an input signal.  
   
   
       10 . A method of driving a liquid crystal device according to  claim 6 , wherein the second image signal is an output signal.
