Abstract

A full-color display device, comprising: a) a display having a plurality of sub-pixels formed in rows or columns in a first dimension including at least three different color sub-pixels forming a color gamut, and grouped into pixels within each row or column, each pixel including at least two of the gamut-specifying color sub-pixels and at least one additional sub-pixel having a color within the gamut and an efficiency higher than at least one of the color sub-pixels, wherein at least one pixel is defective and comprises one defective additional in-gamut sub-pixel; and b) a controller for driving the display pixels and for transforming an input signal into a compensated signal for selectively modifying the output of at least one color sub-pixel in the defective pixel, at least one other, but not all, of the color sub-pixels in a neighboring pixel in the first dimension, and additional in-gamut sub-pixels in neighboring pixels in a second dimension, the at least one other color sub-pixel including the sub-pixel in the neighboring pixel that is closest to the defective sub-pixel, to compensate for the output of the defective sub-pixel(s).
