Diamond Pixel™ is a technology that effectively enhances image quality by arranging pixels, the basic units that constitute a display screen, in a diamond pattern.
A ‘pixel' in a display refers to the basic unit that constitutes the images on the screen. The images you see on the screen of a smartphone, monitor, or TV are made up of numerous pixels.
A pixel can be divided into smaller units. You can think of it as breaking down a molecule into numerous atoms. A pixel consists of three primary colors - red (R), green (G), and blue (B). The smaller pixels that produce each of these colors are called ‘sub-pixels,’ which can be classified into various categories depending on how they are structured.
The traditional arrangement of sub-pixels is lining up R, G, and B in a linear format, as shown in the picture on the right. It is sometimes called the ‘stripe’ type of sub-pixel arrangement. On the other hand, Diamond Pixel™ arranges the sub-pixels in a shape that is close to a diamond. The human eye perceives green better than any other colors, and in Diamond Pixel™, green pixels are the smallest and most densely populated. In summary, Diamond Pixel™ fully leverages the characteristics of the RGB colors.
Diamond Pixel™ is a state-of-the-art technology that achieves crisp and clear image quality even for text, where legibility is crucial, by not only expressing straight lines on four sides of a letter, but also producing even diagonal lines with sharpness and clarity.
