20200184874 | PIXEL STRUCTURE, ARRAY SUBSTRATE AND DISPLAY PANEL - A pixel structure includes at least three sub-pixels and there is a gap between two adjacent sub-pixels. The gap includes at least a first gap and a second gap, where the first gap extends along a linear trajectory and the second gap extends along a curved trajectory. The wire includes at least a first wire and a second wire, wherein the first wire passes through the first gap along the linear trajectory and is spaced apart from the sub-pixels on both sides of the first gap, and the second wire passes through the second gap along the curved trajectory and is spaced apart from the sub-pixels on both sides of the second gap. The second wire has a line width larger than a line width of the first wire. | 2020-06-11 |
20200184875 | IMAGE DISPLAY SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INCREASING A DATA VOLUME OF A CONTROL SIGNAL THEREOF - An image display system increases the data volume of a control signal in a frame of analog image so as to process an analog image in real time. A method for increasing the data volume of the control signal, which is used in the image display system, includes increasing the time for transmitting the control signal, changing an encoding method of the control signal to increase a data volume which is transmitted in unit time or outputting an analog image signal and the control signal at the same time. Therefore, the data volume of the control signal in a frame of image can be increased. | 2020-06-11 |
