Based on the analysis of the nature of the mapping algorithm of converting rgb to RGBW and several existing algorithms
this paper describes the algorithm research strategy which determines the brightness factor
n
and then maximizes the use of white sub-pixels
and proposes a new algorithm accordingly. The weight factor of the new algorithm can be adjusted appropriately by subjective experiments in the future to obtain better display effect. The simulation results of MATLAB show that the algorithm has better brightness and the best white sub-pixel utilization
which greatly reduces energy consumption and prolongs the service life of display devices. The research strategy of this algorithm not only contribute to the presentation of excellent new algorithms
but also can be used to optimize the white sub-pixel utilization of several existing algorithms
and promote the popularization of RGBW display technology.
