Accordingly, technical effects of the present disclosure include techniques for implementing memory in one or more pixels of an electronic display to improve processing techniques of image data for presentation. The techniques include systems and methods for receiving image data, storing the image data in memory in the pixel, and transmitting the image to a driver circuit to operate a light-emitting element of a pixel to emit light. Furthermore, any suitable pixel circuitry implementing memory-in-pixel techniques may be used to execute different emission schemes including a binary pulse width modulation emission scheme, binary pulse width modulation reordering emission scheme, a single pulse width modulation emission scheme, and a pulse density modulation emission scheme, while still benefiting from decreasing bandwidths used to communicate a same image as without using memory-in-pixel techniques. These pixel circuits enabling the emission schemes may couple to a pixel circuit having a hybrid drive to increase a responsiveness to electrical signals of an LED.
The techniques described herein may be applied and integrated with a variety of display technologies and should not be limited to the specific embodiments depicted and/or described herein. For example, pixels with memory are shown as having a light-emitting diode as a light-modulating device, however, the memory-in-pixels techniques may be generally applied to different pixel circuitry to support a variety of display technologies that use a variety of light-modulating devices. In this way, suitable pixel circuitry supporting light emission via a light-emitting diode, a digital mirror display, an organic light-emitting diode, or circuitry supporting a liquid crystal display, a plasma display, or a dot-matrix display may each have memory in the pixel to achieve at least improvements to data transmission bandwidths and ease of programming the pixels.
