BACKLIGHT APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND IMAGE DISPLAY APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A backlight apparatus of an image display apparatus capable of changing an position of a screen, the backlight apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of light sources which are provided for a plurality of light source blocks and for which light emission can be controlled independently in relation to each of the light source blocks;
a storage unit which stores unevenness correction data as data to be used in order to determine a driving signal for the light source of each of the light source blocks, the unevenness correction data being determined so that a luminance of each of the light source blocks is included within a predetermined allowable range with respect to a target luminance in relation to each of a plurality of predetermined positions of the screen;
an acquiring unit which acquires the position of the screen; and
a control unit which determines the driving signal for the light source of each of the light source blocks by using the unevenness correction data corresponding to the position of the screen.

11. A method for controlling a backlight apparatus of an image display apparatus capable of changing an position of a screen, the backlight apparatus comprising a plurality of light sources which are provided for a plurality of light source blocks and for which light emission can be controlled independently in relation to each of the light source blocks, the method comprising:
-
a reading step of reading unevenness correction data as data to be used in order to determine a driving signal for the light source of each of the light source blocks, the unevenness correction data being determined so that a luminance of each of the light source blocks is included within a predetermined allowable range with respect to a target luminance in relation to each of a plurality of predetermined positions of the screen; an acquiring step of acquiring the position of the screen; and a control step of determining the driving signal for the light source of each of the light source blocks by using the unevenness correction data corresponding to the position of the screen. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
