First Claim
1. A display apparatus comprising:
- a display unit;
an image processor configured to process an image and display the processed image on the display unit;
an image analysis unit configured to determine an attentive area and an inattentive area of the image by analyzing image information; and
an image control unit configured to control the image processor to adjust a brightness of the inattentive area of the image displayed on the display unit based on the analyzed image information,wherein the image control unit determines whether or not the brightness can be adjusted in consideration of a psycho-visual characteristic of a user and compensates the gray scale of an area of an image where the brightness can be adjusted.
