Abstract

A context-showing and power-saving display information converting system and a corresponding apparatus are provided for lowering the power consumption of displaying images on a pixel self-emissive display device. The display information converting system includes a context-showing module and a power-saving conversion module. The context-showing module receives display information that describes the content of an image, wherein the display information includes one or more elements, and each element corresponds to a plurality of pixels displayed by a display device. In addition, the context-showing module determines a relevance of the one or more elements according to the viewing interest of the user. The power-saving conversion module converts the display information in unit of the one or more elements according to the relevance and provides the converted display information to the display device.
