Abstract
A method for automatically adjusting display parameters of a display screen of a television device includes: in receipt of an activation signal, controlling the display screen to output a video signal based on a set of display parameters, and controlling the depth camera to capture images of a viewing area; determining a set of condition parameters based on the images; determining, based on the set of condition parameters, whether the video signal is to be adjusted; and when it is determined that the video signal is to be adjusted, adjusting at least one display parameter in the set of display parameters to generate an adjusted video signal and controlling the display screen to output the adjusted video signal.
Claims10
A method for automatically adjusting display parameters of a display screen of a television device, the television device further including a processor that communicates with a depth camera, the method being implemented using the processor of the television device and comprising steps of:
- in receipt of an activation signal, controlling the display screen to output a video signal based on a set of display parameters;
- controlling the depth camera to continuously capture images of a viewing area in front of the display screen;
- determining a set of condition parameters based at least on the images;
- determining, based on at least one condition parameter in the set of condition parameters, whether the video signal is to be adjusted;
- and
- when it is determined that the video signal is to be adjusted, adjusting at least one display parameter in the set of display parameters to generate an adjusted video signal and controlling the display screen to output the adjusted video signal;
- wherein the step of determining the set of condition parameters includes performing, for each of the images captured by the depth camera, an image processing operation to obtain an ambient light intensity, and a distance between a user and the display screen, the ambient light intensity and the distance being included in the set of condition parameters;
- the television device further including a program monitoring unit that is connected to an input signal source for receiving program metadata therefrom, wherein the set of condition parameters further includes a genre of a program extracted from the program metadata.
A television device that is connected to a depth camera and that includes a processor and a display screen, wherein said processor is configured to:
- in receipt of an activation signal, control said display screen to output a video signal based on a set of display parameters, and control the depth camera to continuously capture images of a viewing area in front of said display screen;
- determine a set of condition parameters by performing, for each of the images captured by the depth camera, an image processing operation;
- determine, based on at least one of the condition parameters, whether the video signal is to be adjusted;
- and
- when it is determined that the video signal is to be adjusted, adjust at least one display parameter in the set of display parameters and control said display screen to output the video signal based on an adjusted set of display parameters that includes said at least one display parameter that has been adjusted;
- wherein the set of condition parameters determined by said processor includes one or more of the following:
- an ambient light intensity;
- and
- a distance between a user and said display screen;
- wherein the television device further comprises a program monitoring unit that is connected to an input signal source for receiving program metadata therefrom, and the set of condition parameters determined by said processor further includes a genre of a program extracted from the program metadata.
