ABSTRACT:
A display method includes obtaining three-times magnified image data, which is made up of sub-pixels and with which a raster image to be displayed currently is magnified by three in the first direction. A filtering process on the three-times magnified image data is based on factors that are weighed in accordance to the degrees of contribution to luminance of the three primary colors of R, G, and B. The weighted data are allocated to sub-pixels of the three-times magnified image data that have been subject to the filtering process. The sub-pixels are formed by the three light-emitting elements that form a pixel to thereby enable the display device to perform display.
