IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE AND IMAGE ADJUSTMENT METHOD
First Claim
1. An image display device comprising:
- an external light measurement unit that measures the illuminance of an external light a plurality of times, and generates a measurement value indicating the illuminance;
a storage unit that stores history data showing a plurality of the measurement values, and color mode data showing a correspondence between the illuminance and a color mode;
a determination unit that, based on the history data, determines whether or not it is a changed condition indicating a condition wherein the illuminance changes upward or downward, or a condition wherein the illuminance fluctuates; and
an adjustment unit that, in the event that it is not the changed condition, determines the color mode to be applied based on the measurement values and the color mode data, and adjusts the color or brightness of an image in accordance with the color mode, and in the event that it is the changed condition, continues the adjustment currently being applied as the image adjustment.

Abstract
An image display device includes: an external light measurement unit measuring the illuminance of an external light a plurality of times, and generating a measurement value indicating the illuminance; a storage unit storing history data which shows the measurement values, and color mode data which shows a correspondence between the illuminance and a color mode; a determination unit, based on the history data, determining whether or not it is a changed condition wherein the illuminance changes upward or downward, or the illuminance fluctuates; and an adjustment unit, in the event that it is not the changed condition, determining the color mode to be applied based on the measurement values and the color mode data, and adjusting the color or brightness of an image in accordance with the color mode, and in the event that it is the changed condition, continuing the adjustment currently being applied as the image adjustment.

6. An image adjustment method comprising:
-
allowing a computer included in an image display device to cause an illuminance sensor to measure the illuminance of an external light a plurality of times, and generate a measurement value indicating the illuminance; store history data showing a plurality of the measurement values, and color mode data showing a correspondence between the illuminance and a color mode; determine, based on the history data, whether or not it is a changed condition indicating a condition wherein the illuminance changes upward or downward, or a condition wherein the illuminance fluctuates; and in the event that it is not the changed condition, determine the color mode to be applied based on the measurement values and the color mode data, and adjust the color or brightness of an image in accordance with the color mode, and in the event that it is the changed condition, continue the adjustment currently being applied as the image adjustment.

7. An image adjustment method comprising:
-
allowing a computer included in an image display device to cause an illuminance sensor to measure the illuminance of an external light a plurality of times, and generate a measurement value indicating the illuminance; store color mode data showing a correspondence between the illuminance and a color mode of an image, and hysteresis data showing a change value that, after a color mode to be applied has once been determined, changes a minimum value or maximum value of the illuminance corresponding to the color mode; and based on the color mode data and hysteresis data, determine the color mode to be applied in a condition in which the change value is reflected after a color mode to be applied has once been determined, and adjust the color or brightness of an image in accordance with the color mode.
