ABSTRACT:
Unit pixels in a color display device each include a first and a second subpixel. The second is provided with a color filter, and each has a medium changing optical properties (hue and brightness of transmitted light) depending on an applied voltage. A voltage is applied to the first subpixel to modulate those optical properties of the medium, and a voltage is applied to the second subpixel to modulate the brightness of light passing through the medium disposed at the second subpixel. When display of the color display device is switched, a correction voltage of the second subpixel is calculated from a voltage applied to the first subpixel before the display is switched and a voltage applied to the first subpixel after the display is switched, and the voltage applied to the second subpixel is set to a value obtained by superposing the correction voltage on a voltage determined by the display at the second subpixel in a predetermined period after the voltage applied to the first subpixel is switched. The correction voltage modifies the color of the second subpixel so as to produce an achromatic color at that unit pixel by mixing a chromatic color, transitionally appearing at the first subpixel when the display is switched, with the color of the second subpixel.
