    With the development of display devices towards high resolution and high refresh rate, the amount of video image data was increasing exponentially, which brought challenges to the bandwidth resources of the display system. From the perspective of human visual system, combining the change of the gaze point position and the sampling characteristics of the human eye foveal, an adaptive foveal image transmission algorithm based on human eye gaze point was proposed to reduce the data transmission bandwidth. The experimental results showed when the viewing distance was 2 and the gaze point position was at the center of the image, the comprehensive compression ratio was 12.257, the data transmission clock frequency was 12.532 MHz, and the total amount of data transmitted was 8.158% of the original total. The total amount of data transmission was greatly reduced, and the pressure on data transmission bandwidth was effectively relieved, so that video images with higher resolution and refresh rate could be displayed under the same clock frequency.

    The corner white Mura issue of product “A” produced in line 6 generation was systematically studied. Firstly, the physical analysis was carried out for the defects, and then the data simulation analysis was carried out by using the binary logistic regression method of Minitab software. Finally, the defects were analyzed and improved through different process test conditions. The experimental results showed that the sealant in defect region was sheltered by metal wiring, and the shielding proportion was an important factor affecting the corner white dot. Further analysis by TOF-SIMS showed that defect region had higher content of sealant (acrylic acid, bisphenol A). Thus, the sealant was sheltered by metal wiring, resulting in incomplete curing of the sealant in this region, leading to the precipitation of the sealant component into the liquid crystal, which then affected the normal deflection of the liquid crystal, resulting in white dot in the corner at last. By adjusting the corner of the sealant painting, it could effectively reduce the defect rate. This experiment effectively improved the corner white dot, laid a firm foundation for the smooth mass production of product “A”, and reduced the loss of the company.

    Simulation software was used to simulate the temperature distribution of the module and each component, and the simulation process of heat and the correctness of the simulation results were studied. Firstly, simulation software was used to analyze the heat dissipation of the module to obtain the temperature distribution of the module and each component. Then, the module was placed in a 25 ℃ incubator, and the temperature was measured of the random points on the surface of the module and OC by a multiple temperature detector. Finally, the simulated temperature was compared with the measured temperature, the temperature rise error value was calculated, and the difference between the measured value and the simulation value was compared through the temperature rise error value,to verify the correctness of the simulation results. By comparing and analyzing the experimental results and the simulation results, it was concluded that: when the module operated stably at the room temperature, there was little difference between the simulation value and the actual measured value, and the maximum temperature rise error was 3.5%, which was relatively small. The simulation results had theoretical reference and met the engineering design requirements.

    In this paper, aiming at the separation phenomenon of Gamma curve of dual-screen display products, the mechanism was studied through experimental verification such as physical analysis, electrical experiments, process data and adjustment of process conditions, as well as a large number of verification data. Through experimental measurements, it was known that there were differences in the cell gap and the pixel electrode CD between the upper and lower screens, resulting in differences in the transmittance of the upper and lower screens, then resulting in differences in Gamma between the upper and lower screens. Through process investigation and verification, it was found that the difference in the cell gap and the pixel electrode CD was caused by the influence of equipment hardware, resulting in poor uniformity of the adhesive starting position;and finally the process of sealing the upper and lower screens was achieved, the optimized film thickness was introduced and the pixel electrode CD increase process within the fluctuation range was improved. The Gamma curve separation defect was completely improved (defect rate of 12%) and the screen display quality of the product was improved.
