Method of Designing a Device Having a Plurality of Elements Using Phase Maps

원문 (중국어)

A method () of designing a segmented display device () having a plurality of elements () arranged in an array (), each element () providing an individual output such that the plurality of elements () form a collective output of the device (), wherein each element () is actuatable to control the individual output, the method () comprising: providing () a set () of images () representing a set of collective outputs from the device (); generating () phase maps () of the images (), the phase maps () having a phase value for each element () of the plurality of elements (); and based on the phase maps (), generating a plurality of non-overlapping groups of elements, wherein the elements () in each group are arranged to be actuated together as a segment () to cause display of any one of the set of collective output.
