Abstract
Embodiments of methods, systems, or apparatuses relating to adjusting a brightness level of at least a portion of a backlight of a display device based, at least in part, on one or more measurements of ambient light values.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- non-uniformly adjusting a brightness of at least a plurality of luminescent bodies disposed as part of a backlight of a display device based, at least in part, on one or more measurements of ambient light values determined, at least in part, by said display device.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a light emitter comprising an array of luminescent bodies;
- an LCD panel coupled to said light emitter;
- and
- a control circuit electrically coupled to said light emitter and said LCD panel, wherein said control circuit is capable of non-uniformly adjusting a brightness of at least a plurality of luminescent bodies disposed as part of a backlight of a display device based, at least in part, on one or more measurements of ambient light values determined, at least in part, by said display device.
1 more element
An apparatus, comprising:
- means for determining one or more ambient light values;
- and
- means for individually adjusting a brightness of at least one luminescent body disposed as part of an array of luminescent bodies comprising at least a portion of a backlight of a display device based, at least in part, on said one or more ambient light values associated with said display device.
