Electro optical device, electric apparatus and pixel rendering method
First Claim
1. A pixel rendering method in an electro optical device comprising a pixel array constituted by pixels arranged in matrix, each pixel including four subpixels, the four subpixels including subpixels of colors of R (Red), G (Green) and B (Blue), and a subpixel of a similar color to a specific color, the specific color being a color of subpixel including a light emitting material having a shortest lifetime among the light emitting materials included in the subpixels of colors of R, G and B, respectively, and the four subpixels being arranged in two rows and two columns, andeach of the pixels including:
- a first subpixel having a highest emission luminance and a second subpixel having a second highest emission luminance among subpixels needed to display a white color, both the first subpixel and the second subpixel being arranged on one diagonal line of the pixel; and
a third subpixel having a third highest emission luminance and a fourth subpixel having a lowest emission luminance, both the third subpixel and the fourth subpixel being arranged on another diagonal line of the pixel, whereinthe method comprises;
extracting a corner, a straight line, a boundary, or a dot which is to be displayed in the pixel array; and
making a subpixel emit light with a predetermined value of luminance, the subpixel being in an adjacent pixel located adjacent to the first subpixel or the fourth subpixel within each pixel arranged at the corner, the straight line, the boundary, or the dot, and the adjacent pixel being not located at the corner, the straight line, the boundary, or the dot.

Abstract
An electro optical device has a pixel array constituted by pixels arranged in matrix, each pixel including four subpixels, the four subpixels including RGB subpixels and a subpixel of a similar color to a specific color among RGB, and the four subpixels being arranged in two rows and two columns. In each pixel, a first subpixel having the highest emission luminance and a second subpixel having the second highest emission luminance among subpixels needed for white display are arranged on one diagonal line of the pixel, and the other subpixels are arranged on the other diagonal line. The electro optical device has a control unit that executes switching between a first driving condition and a second driving condition in accordance with a color of a pixel to be displayed, the first driving condition in which both the subpixel of the specific color and the subpixel of the similar color are driven to emit light with the first luminance ratio, and the second driving condition in which both the subpixels of the specific color and the similar color are driven to emit light with the second luminance ratio.
