Bendable stereoscopic 3D display device
First Claim
1. A bendable stereoscopic 3D display device, comprising:
- a display panel including a plurality of left-eye pixels and a plurality of right-eye pixels, the display panel being divided into a reference block and a plurality of blocks outside the reference block;
a separator on the display panel to transmit or block images output from the left-eye pixels and the right-eye pixels;
a timing controller to receive an image data and a timing signal for driving the display panel; and
a control unit to receive a bending information on each of the plurality of blocks when there is a change in curvature of the display panel, reset a view map of each of the plurality of blocks based on a degree of bending, and then rearrange the image data based on the reset view map,wherein a number of views in each of the plurality of blocks is modified so that a view information of at least one of the plurality of blocks substantially matches that of the reference block, andwherein the view map is a coordinate information of a viewing region in which a stereoscopic image output can be viewed.

Abstract
Disclosed is a bendable stereoscopic 3D display device that includes a display panel including a plurality of left-eye pixels and a plurality of right-eye pixels, the display panel being divided into a plurality of blocks; a separator on the display panel to transmit or block images output from the left-eye pixels and the right-eye pixels; a gate driver and a data driver to drive the display panel; a timing controller to receive image data and a timing signal for driving the gate driver and the data driver; and a control unit to receive a bending information on at least one of the plurality of blocks when there is a change in curvature of the display panel, reset a view map of the at least one of the plurality of blocks based on the bending information, and rearrange the image data based on the view map.

9. A method for driving a bendable stereoscopic 3D display device, the method comprising:
-
dividing a display panel into a reference block and a plurality of blocks outside the reference block; providing a separator on the display panel; receiving a bending information on each of the plurality of blocks of the display panel, when there is a change in curvature of the display panel; resetting a view map of each of the plurality of blocks based on a degree of bending; and rearranging image data based on the reset view map, wherein a number of views in each of the plurality of blocks is modified so that a view information of at least one of the plurality of blocks substantially matches that of the reference block, and wherein the view map is a coordinate information of a viewing region in which a stereoscopic image output can be viewed. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
