Method for managing display brightness based on usage period
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11922900B2) discloses a method for managing the display of an information handling system. The method involves monitoring the display's usage period, determining if it exceeds a threshold, and adjusting the brightness level accordingly. This adjustment not only decreases the brightness but also increases the display's lifecycle. Additionally, the method involves sending signals to a graphics processing unit (GPU) to analyze contrast and gamma levels associated with the displayed images. The GPU processes the images based on these levels, taking into account factors like ambient lighting to generate a modified contrast and gamma level for optimal display quality.
Furthermore, the patent includes claims related to computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying software and a computing environment with instructions for implementing the display management method. These claims detail the steps for decreasing brightness based on application profiles, determining contrast and gamma levels, and adjusting them according to ambient lighting conditions. The software and computing environment described in the patent aim to enhance the user experience by dynamically optimizing display settings based on usage patterns and environmental factors, ultimately improving image quality and extending the display's lifespan. This innovative approach to display management showcases a sophisticated system that adapts to user needs and environmental conditions for an enhanced visual experience.
