Abstract

A display formed with multiple pixel groups arranged in a matrix manner. Each of the pixel groups has multiple dots arranged in a predetermined identical matrix form, and has at least one first color dot, at least one second color dot and at least one third color dot. Each color dot has multiple sides adjacent to the other dots having a different color. Each color dot represents a luminance and a chrominance of corresponding full color pixel data by grouping with neighboring dots to form a plurality of overlapping full color dynamics pixel groups. The display has good spatial frequency in both X and Y axes, thus giving a higher visual perception of high resolution after performing weighted dot rendering methods, in which each dot in the display represents the luminance and chrominance of each corresponding RGB pixel by forming overlapping dynamic pixels with neighboring color dots.
