Display device viewing angle compensation

A television receiver for correction of images displayed by a display device, the television receiver comprising:

• one or more processors;
• one or more sensors for observing an environment proximate to the display device, wherein the one or more sensors are communicatively coupled with the one or more processors;
• and
• a non-transitory memory communicatively coupled with and readable by the one or more processors and having stored therein processor-readable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:
• monitoring, using a signal from the one or more sensors, a first position of a first user relative to the display device, and a second position of a second user relative to the display device;
• determining a first viewing angle between the display device and the first user using the first position of the first user relative to the display device, and a second viewing angle between the display device and the second user using the second position of the second user relative to the display device;
• determining a first image display setting change to compensate for attenuation of output of the display device when viewed from the first viewing angle and a second image display setting change to compensate for attenuation of output of the display device when viewed from the second viewing angle, wherein determining the first image display setting change and the second image display setting change includes using expected attenuation data for the display device, and wherein the expected attenuation data is determined using a data file for the display device;
• determining, according to the one or more sensors the environment proximate to the display device, an ambient condition of the environment proximate to the display device;
• and
• adjusting image display settings in real-time to modify an output image displayed by the display device to compensate for the attenuation of output of the display device in accordance with determining the first image display setting change, the second image display setting change, and the ambient condition, wherein the image display settings include one or more of a brightness setting, a color setting, or a contrast setting.

A non-transitory processor-readable medium for correction of images displayed by a display device, the medium comprising processor-readable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:

• monitoring, using a signal from one or more sensors for observing an environment proximate to the display device, a first position of a first user relative to the display device, and a second position of a second user relative to the display device;
• determining a first viewing angle between the display device and the first user using the first position of the first user relative to the display device, and a second viewing angle between the display device and the second user using the second position of the second user relative to the display device;
• determining a first image display setting change to compensate for attenuation of output of the display device when viewed from the first viewing angle and a second image display setting change to compensate for attenuation of output of the display device when viewed from the second viewing angle, wherein determining the first image display setting change and the second image display setting change includes using expected attenuation data for the display device, and wherein the expected attenuation data is determined using a data file for the display device;
• determining, according to the one or more sensors the environment proximate to the display device, an ambient condition of the environment proximate to the display device;
• and
• adjusting image display settings in real-time to modify an output image displayed by the display device to compensate for the attenuation of output of the display device in accordance with determining the first image display setting change, the second image display setting change, and the ambient condition, wherein the image display settings include one or more of a brightness setting, a color setting, or a contrast setting.
